I thought this was kind of interesting. It's different from my usual subjects but captures something you don't see every day.
Went with a super simple double page layout that maximizes the number of photos I can get on the page. My hungry girls inhaling Mac and cheese after skiing lessons.

From Wikipedia -
Ganga Talao (Hindi: गङ तलओ; also known as Grand Bassin) is a crater lake situated in a secluded mountain area in the district of Savanne, deep in the heart of Mauritius. It is about 1800 feet above sea level. The first group of pilgrims who went to Ganga Talao were from the village of Triolet and it was led by Pandit Giri Gossayne from Terre Rouge in 1898.
It is considered the most sacred Hindu place in Mauritius.
There is a temple dedicated to Lord Shiva and other Gods including Lord Hanuman, Goddess Lakshmi, and others along the Grand Bassin. During Shivaratri, many pilgrims in Mauritius walk bare feet from their homes to the lake.
I feel like I am running out of steam this week! It was my 13 and 11 yr old boys that made me do one tonight - they said I was too close to give up!! LOL.
Haven't done a LO with a black background for a long time - feels strange.
1998 International,9300. 2 million miles and still have the original hood and most of the paint. She has some battle scars, but held together with blood and sweat. I pulled the plastic of the truck and turned the wrenches on it from the day it hit the dealer ship, then bought it off the guy who had it and put the first three hundred thousand miles on it. I have drove, bled, and turn the wrenches on it ever since. I have redone the interior, customized it to be like no other. It has a 525 Cummins, 18 speed transmission and pulls either a 2001 Wilson cow wagon or 53 foot step deck pulling mostly hay.
Oh bugger! I got my cardi caught on the wire as I was sliding under it. 3.02
I actually don't like this either - phooey *walks away, hands in pockets*

A truck has been reversed off the road up against a large stack of logs. Duckboards have been laid down so that the truck can safely negotiate the terrain. The truck is labelled 39426 and has 'load exceed 3 tons' written up the side. It also has a more informal name daubed across the front. Two soldiers are lifting the logs from the pile while a third secures them on to the truck. Two soldiers stand at the front of the truck chatting to each other. The stack of rough-hewn trunks in the background towers over the scene.
Sawmills were often set up close to the front line so that the timber could be made into lumber ready for use. This meant that the supply of wood would be steady and sufficient. It was also more efficient this way as all the resources were close together and then the finished product could be transported to where was necessary.

Apparently this jumbo jet (N661US) has quite an interesting history including being the first Boeing 747-400 ever produced. It has now been converted into a museum. When I took these photos, I had no idea of any of her history until years later now.
