Not in heavy use now, but I liked the handmade backward printed sign over to the right of the door, to help drivers using their mirror while easing up to the dock.

It felt weird to not load the motorcycle together since some of us would be staying back in Manali for an extra day.
12/19/2008 - Houston, Texas - I took this picture at a stop light at Shepherd and W. Gray. This pickup was seriously overloaded and the suspension couldn't bear the full load.

Day 3
Inspiration : Kitchen
[The background story]
I love being in the kitchen and I am obsessed with food, the beauty of it and the presentation of a freshly made something-or-other. I'm really getting into being healthy and making things from scratch, so for this prompt I couldn't wait to scrap a photo of my green kitchen.
I'm not sure why the stitch lines around the outside tend to get cut off when I scan in my layout, but they do in fact go all around the page. I also think this looked a lot better before I wrote the journaling...but maybe it'll grow on me.
Journaling reads:
"Thanks to the combination of Pinterest & my house being equipped with a kitchen, I've discovered I love to cook. I've always loved to bake-but I'm teaching myself to cook-from scratch. I love experimenting with recipes & tweaking them to make them my own. I've even been inspired to start a [small] garden & I can't wait to have fresh fruits & veggies to share. One of my fave rooms in my house. May 3. 2013. :)"

In the background the dredge is extracting raw rutile from the ground. The rutile is pumped suspended in water to the right to a wet plant that is as big as the dredge. It is further refined to remove impurities and then up the verticle pipe behind the yellow truck before being extracted from the water and duimped on the ground to be loaded on the trucks. In the foreground the large digger is loading the truck with raw rutile for further processing and then export. Rutile is mainly composed of titanium dioxide, and can produce byproducts such as zircon. For more information, google 'Sierra Rutile'.
German submarine U-534 is a Type IXC/40 U-boat of Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine built for service during World War II. She was launched on 23 September 1942.
In the early hours of 5 May 1945, a partial surrender was ordered by Admiral Dönitz of German forces.
U-534 formed a convoy with two Type XXI U-boats, U-3523 and U-3503, and continued sailing north on the surface of the Kattegat sea in an area too shallow for crash diving. Two British RAF Liberator aircraft attacked, one was shot down, and nine depth charges from the bombing runs missed, but then the boat received a direct hit by a depth charge.
U-534 began to take on water as a result of the damage to her aft section by the engine rooms, and sank. The shot-down Liberator crashed and all on board the plane were lost.
U-534 had aboard a crew of 52 men; all escaped the sub, 49 survived to be rescued. Five were trapped in the torpedo room as she began to sink, but they managed to escape through the torpedo loading hatch once the boat had settled on the sea bed. They planned their escape the way that they had been trained, exiting through the forward torpedo hatch once the U-boat had settled on the seabed and swimming to the surface from a depth of 67 metres (220 ft). One of them, 17-year-old radio operator, Josef Neudorfer, failed to exhale as he was surfacing and died from damage to his lungs. Two others (including the submarine's radio operator of Argentine origin) died of exposure while in the water.
U-534 lay on the sea bed for nearly 41 years, until she was discovered at a depth of 67 meters in 1986 by a Danish wreck hunter, Aage Jensen. Shortly afterwards, the wreck hunters' group contacted Danish media millionaire Karsten Ree, who sponsored raising the submarine, as rumours of Nazi gold caused intense media coverage. However, the boat turned out to contain nothing unusual.
U-534 was raised to the surface on 23 August 1993 by the Dutch salvage company Smit Tak.
She was transported to Birkenhead in 1996.
While back in France a pair of US troops raise another bomb into a B-17 to be dropped on Germany in a few hours.

Ted - You don't know what I went through to get these photos.

A few years ago I made a banner for my daughter and I saved a few that I didn't use. I used the banner as a mat for a future picture of my soon to be born grandson. So glad I hung on to the extra banners, I have one more so I'll be making a companion page to go with this one.
