I've shot with Seaira several times over the last few years and always love it. She is an awesome young lady - fun, sweet, drop dead gorgeous, and adventurous. This shoot was interesting since she is quite pregnant; however, the pregnancy gave her a special glow. The only bummer of the shoot was I didn't have a chance to shoot with her in the river like the other photographers did. Maybe next time??

 

I took these photos in August 2018 in Star, Idaho.

Wide Load - moving House .. 18 wheeler transporting single storey building - down the Local road .. just Wide enough ..

  

Guildford, Surrey ..

CEA were employed for the cleaning and loading of a very valuable speedboat.

 

The boats hull was cleaned with pressure washers, while the internal sections were cleaned by hand. After drying out the boat was vacuumed and polished and all the seats were wrapped in protective sheeting. A specially designed wooden cradle had been manufactured by CEA to hold the boat securely when in the container.

 

All lifting lugs were sealed and the windshield removed. The boat was lashed to its cradle and foam protectors attached at the point of contact with the boat. After all lashing was in place and the boat secure the team then carefully moved the cradle and boat into a 40ft HC.

 

Block and braces were installed to secure the cradle in the container and all loose items were lashed securely in place ready for transportation and shipping.

Thanks to all of you who offered support and tips on my foray into digital scrapbooking. This layout has been on my to-do list for months. I bought the Ali Edwards template ages ago but never had the nerve to do the layout. The paper is from Jessica Sprague.

 

This took way longer than I planned, but I am so glad I decided to use the tips I learned yesterday - it will help me to learn to do this faster I am sure.

Ahhhhh...Mythbusters! Our family's favorite show. (Though technically the baby doesn't care.) I downloaded some images from the internet for the photos and manipulated an image of the show's logo in Photoshop to make the title.

 

I used a sketch from the Ella Publishing sketch challenge for this one.

This rather grainy photo shows the method - known as "hoist loading" - of loading vehicles on to the first three car ferries to operate on the west coast of Scotland (outside the Firth of Clyde), the MVs Hebrides, Columba and Clansman of 1964 operated by David MacBrayne Ltd (latterly Caledonian MacBrayne after merger in 1973 with the Caledonian Steam Packet Company Ltd which ran the ferries on the Clyde.)

 

Instead of driving down a ramp adjustable according to the state of the tide (a "linkspan") directly on to the ship's cardeck at the bow or (more usually with 60s ferries) the stern, hoist loading involved the ship being equipped with a transverse platform which was raised from the car deck by pulleys or hydraulic rams to the level of the pier. A ramp was lowered and 4 or 5 cars could drive on. Turntables set in to the platform enabled some of the cars to be swung round through 90 degrees to ease them being driven off onto the car deck once the platform had been lowered back down.

 

It was pretty laborious - and almost useless for HGVs - but was necessitated because, whilst the Government was prepared in the early 1960s to invest in ships designed to carry vehicles, it was not at that time yet prepared to invest in linkspans.

 

Linkspans began to be provided in the early 70s but the process was gradual and I think I'm right in saying that the last service to be converted to "end-loading" ro-ro operations was Mallaig-Armadale in 1994/95.

 

The only photograph ever taken by me of hoist loading is here at Castlebay although note the end is nigh with the construction of the linkspan ongoing in the background. The ship pictured there has a hoist as well as a ramp at the stern allowing it to operate from linkspans as well. Some Calmac ferries still have hoist systems (as well as the now normal ramps at bow and stern) which would only be deployed in emergency if the linkspan at an island broke down.

 

I don't know which of the three original ferries it is in the picture or where it is (Craignure on Mull, possibly) but note the MacBrayne's bus on the pier.

 

This is a scan from an old BBC publication which I think was meant to accompany educational radio broadcast.

The drums were filled with chemical agents, smoke agents, or oil.

 

When loaded with oil drums, the weapons were called "flame projectors" or "oil projectors."

Only half done sorry ladies! I have run out of time today and need to head in to work the night shift. I am stuck on a title. Suggestions? This page is for the 2012 Annual Alberta Police and Peace Officer Memorial on Sept 29.

Supply roll-up, project #5, all open and ready to be rolled! This project took me over 5 hours to do! I had to figure out a way to have two pockets with different divisions. It was a good brain-workout! Difficult, but worth the results! :)

After the Panama Canal Transit, we stopped for a day in Cartagena, Columbia. It was hot, Humid and beautiful. Ever since seeing Romancing the Stone, I have wanted to see Cartagena.

Day Five

 

Ordinarily, I'd be all about the texture...goodness knows I've got more embossing folders than I know what to do with. However, today was just different...I took a different approach.

 

The grid-style seems to be working recently, so I'm back at it again.

 

Same size as the others, 6.5 x 11.

 

Journaling reads:

 

"It only took a ping pong ball & a fishbowl at the local church festival - & Jon & I won ourselves a pair of fish! We named them Jager & Meister. We took a midnight run to WalMart to get a bowl & fish food. We loved them for an entire week. However, our out of town trip resulted in a fish casualty. They lasted six days longer than expected. :)"
