I ran out of time on this and had planned some lovely bokeh but events stopped that. We closed the curtains on the world and had a cosy fire last night so no bokeh from me but I’ll give it a go later this week. Temperature dropped significantly and is cold again this morning.
We were burning our own ash logs and we are very happy with them. Not happy to have lost the ash but at least we are able to use them in the wood burners.
Escanaba and Lake Superior 501 cuts through the farm field in the countryside just south of Wausakee, Wisconsin on an early fall Sunday afternoon. While much of the territory which the E&LS passes through is firmly in the "northwoods" with trees as far as the eye can see, from this area to the south towards Green Bay farms also dot the landscape of the "dairy state." Hints of early fall in the hills add a little splash of color to this drone view along U.S. 41.
The former Milwaukee Road SD40-2 (originally #22) still works home rails on much of the E&LS, and is leading here on the former Milwaukee Road main from Green Bay to Channing and eventually Ontonagon or Republic. The 501 has empty and loaded log cars as well as some storage cars in tow. The crew came out of Channing in the morning and after some work at the Pembine wood yard are now making the run to Crivitz where they will tie down for the day.

Sába loves it. Going up there means she'll get some treats for posing, and those vantage points are naturally preferred places for dogs. Well, not for enjoying the panorama better, but you know, sniffing and looking around from up there is much more interesting for a dog. She's a 7 yrs old cane corso female, by the way.
Tharp's Log is a hollowed giant sequoia tree near Crescent Meadow in Sequoia National Park. The log is named after Hale Tharp who was said to be the first Non-Native American to enter the Giant Forest. Tharp lived in the cabin each summer from 1861 until 1890 when Sequoia National Park was established.

I've been trying for a long time to think of how to get a tricky focus shot of this log by the Mission Creek Greenway. This still isn't right but it is the best I've been able to come up with so far.

Continuing to purge old autumn pics, I come to this one. There is nothing wonderful about the photo, but I want to show the old, log structure by the trees. There are a lot of these buildings remaining in the Ottawa Valley. I took this somewhere along the backroads of Lanark County last autumn.
An American Elk seen at the Greater Vancouver Zoo in Aldergrove, British Columbia. He was not stuck or in trouble but was playing with this log.
American Elk are the largest of the elk family, weighing up to 500 kilograms. Every spring, male elk begin to grow a new pair of antlers. (24-02-16-0730)

Posted this as a color shot in June but I have always felt the black and white was more expressive.
So half of the wonky log cabin blocks are done. I think I have about 11 or so more to make ... maybe a couple more if I need to change some out. I'm not sure if I want to make some all green/aqua ones or not. I'll try a few and see how they look. I can't believe how slowly I'm going on this project.
