Load the car and write the note

tell ones that need to know

we are headed north

all one foot in and one foot back

but its okay, to live like that

so i cut the ties and i jumped the tracks

for never to return.

Avett Brothers, I and love and you.

The inaccuracy and unrelaibility of muzzle-loading rifles is vastly overstated. This was at fifty yards by two inexperienced shooters. The ball is .50cal. It's hardly a sharpshooting rifle by today's standards, but was certainly good enough for hunting and marksmanship.

Practice with a replica 19th-century flintlock rifle.

Along the Irrawaddy.

At each stop of the Irrawaddy ferry, many heavy sacks of coal would be loaded on board. Curiously, only women would do the job, while men would stand there and watch.

If you load all the found items into your truck it will not be noticed

Day Nine

Incorporating journaling...hmm. I tend to have a lot of extra pictures of us from all the crazy adventures we go on and I thought this would be a fun one to work with.

I'm not crazy that nearly all my layouts this load are looking similar in layout, but what can I expect using mostly 2" x 3" pictures and a format that's only 6.5" x 11"?

The title says [vertically] "starring j & k in:" and [horizontally] "SELFIES"

Journaling reads:

"Everywhere we go, we take a "selfie." They don't always turn out well, but we always laugh & smile. My favorite & me. 10-11."

Supplies Used:

Cardstock: Georgia Pacific [white]

Patterned Paper: Jillibean Soup [orange]

Letter stickers: American Crafts

Ribbon: American Crafts

Buttons: Doodlebug

Pen: Staedtler

Adhesive: Glue Dots, Scotch

Thanks for looking!

Removing the rest of the rotten decking boards.

This photo is a close-up, taken from the back of one of the S-2T tankers. The red cap you can see is where the hose is inserted to refuel the plane with fire retardant. I came across a Cal Fire web page that featured the following interesting factoids about the Sonoma Air Attack Base and its fire retardant consumption - "On average, the base pumps about 300,000 gallons of retardant a year."

Loading up Santa's sleigh.Designed/created/photographed at StudioM studio - Noosa hinterland.

Designed and made by StudioM at our workshop in Cooroy/Tinbeerwah hinterland. Photo taken at our studio BEFORE being sold to a local animation and Promotions company which put in some simple motion by inserting a rotating shaft/cam system overhead to make simple up and down motions with tugs of fishing lines to objects below.

Although it has been exhibited by this company, claims by parties other than StudioM to being 'the mastermind' and/or 'creative force' behind this scene and the other 65plus scenes StudioM designed and made that have been displayed, are COMPLETELY false, deliberately misleading and an infringement of copyright.

Wild side

So I know it's a little hard to read...but overall I kinda like it!

The prompt was animal related...wild + animal...so yeah. Haha.

Load of freight north bound to Broome, Fitzroy Crossing, Halls Creek and Kununurra.

The loading area is adjacent to Hill Place Bridge, which is situated at the northern edge of the tip face. Hill Place Bridge is to the South of the Viaduct.

Extract from 'Infantry Training, Volume 1, Infantry Platoon Weapons, Pamphlet No 3B, the 7.62mm Self Loading Rifle and Bayonet', dated December 1965.

This was, and is, a far superior rifle to the SA-80. If Carlsberg made rifles...

Dirty work

Just a photo, but I'll scan it in later.

Another day where the prompt didn't fit so I scrapped a photo that I love.

Journaling reads:

"he does the dirty work

this guy is like no other guy i know...or that i've dated. he does all the dirty work...no questions asked and he constantly amazes me. he transferred the slimy fish from one bowl to the next...he flushed the fish when they died...he kills the spiders & other assorted creepy crawly bugs...he cleans off my car when it's snowing while i wait inside...he takes care of me when i'm sick...even with the chicken pox...he opens every single door for me...he takes out the garbage and he does laundry...he's like my own personal super hero! he's got a smile that makes me fall in love every single day...he's got the perfect hands for holding and high fiving...his southern charm makes me not hate texas so much...his generosity is never-ending...his laughter is contagious...his driving makes me feel safe [prolly cause we don't go over 35mph!]...he's got amazing bartending skills...he comes from an incredible family...his eyes tell the story of his soul. he does the dirty work, but he does so much more than that. i can say with 177% accuracy i know there isn't anything -clean or dirty- he wouldn't do for me. that's just who he is...and i love that about him. i love him. 2-21-2012"

A smiling worker loads bricks on a conveyor belt in Vinh Long Vietnam

i had some scraps of ribbon and fabric sitting on my table from a wreath i made...worked perfect here. just some bits glued down and some flowers i made...i am very into the flowers. There is a second page to this layout that has the title and journalling, but it is just 6 photos that completely cover the page. Needed fast and easy.

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.

I know I'm out of the running for a prize, but I still am determined to complete every day of LOAD. I want that gold star/check mark just for my own mental and emotional well being. So this is the first of three make up layouts I'm trying to do. This was for Day 16's page sketch.

Hmmm, I just noticed the drop shadow between the yellow and polka dot paper. I don't like that at all -very tempted to go back and fix and re-upload this lo. But hey, if I'm learning anything from this load it's that I need to get over my fantasies of perfection. lol! so it will stay. Look at that Lain, such control in the face of imperfection!
