A better view of the quilt top I bought yesterday. I removed the ugly border and the thick batting. It was tied in the yellow centers so some of them are ripped and need replacing. It's hand pieced and will someday be hand quilted. It's got to wait in line.
The forecast of some impending wet weather means that I will probably have to curb my weir wading for a while! This was made a few days ago at Beeston Weir, when there was a nice balance of water flowing over it. I managed to reach this stranded log and set up my tripod on some solid ground. That's not as daft as it sounds, because the weir is actually quite spongy from all the plant growth and setting the tripod legs firmly is essential for longer exposures such as this.
After reading comments on my previous photo I thought some of you would like to see a close-up of the end of a petrified log. Some of these were about 3 feet in diameter, and the colors vary in different logs. None of the wood is left. They are like huge gem-stones.
Continuing photos of our fall camping trip, this unusual double log cabin at Sprucemont ghost town, Nevada, has collapsed on the other side. Perhaps this was part of a street of businesses in the 1800's.
Tharp's Log is a hollowed giant sequoia log at Log Meadow in the Giant Forest grove of Sequoia National Park that was used as a shelter by early pioneers. The log is named after Hale Tharp, who was described as the first non-Native American to enter the Giant Forest. Tharp established a small summer cattle ranch in the area and used the log as a cabin. The log was hollowed by fire through fifty-five feet of its seventy-foot length. A fireplace, door and window exist at the wider end, with a small shake-covered cabin extension.[2] John Muir described it as a "noble den".[3]

Raisch Cabin is one of the oldest structures in Mercer County and sits along the Erie Extension Canal. It’s a log cabin originally owned by Frederick Raisch now located at the Sharpsville Area Recreation Park.
The log cabin, originally built in Hermitage before the year 1810, was moved here in the 1970s after it was discovered while another house was being demolished.
The house is now owned by the Mercer County Historical Society. It took more than two years to restore this cabin after it was relocated.
It’s considered the oldest building in Mercer County.

Fallen logs during low tide sunset at Milford Sound. During high tide, this area would be submerged, as I found out about half-an-hour later (to my boots' sorrow!)
Oh I do miss this place. Next time I plan to stay here at least 3 days, so I could explore more.

I was completely surprised the first time I saw this large logging operation on the site of the former Oakland Army Base is West Oakland, adjacent to the Port of Oakland. One doesn't expect to find this type of business in a big city.
These logs and other wood products are exported by MDI Forest Products to the Asian market.
The downtown Oakland skyline can be seen in the background.
