Took this shot in Longview, WA last year. I was actually back here today, dropping off an empty trailer at Keystone Paper. We haul large rolls of paper to companies that use it to make corrugated cardboard boxes. (8 rolls weight over 40,000 LBS, which is enough to fill our 53' trailers.) When trees are logged, places like this is where they start the process of becoming all the many things we use wood for.
More brightly colored than most wrens, and with a rich musical song, Carolina Wrens are common in open woods and backyards in the southeast. There they busily explore brush piles and low tangles. The adults live in pairs all year, and they may "duet" at any season, with the female giving a chattering note while the male sings. The northern edge of this species' range varies over time: it gradually expands northward during series of mild years, then gets knocked southward again by very severe winters.
Found this one in my backyard in Lake Wales, Florida.

The morning of April 15 was a chaotic one for Amtrak's Carolinian and Piedmont trains. The first westbound of the day, Amtrak 73, hit a downed tree on the single track west of Cary, disabling the lead locomotive and forcing them to annul the train. The delays caused by inspection and limping back at restricted speed meant they were stranded for nearly four hours, long enough for the second Piedmont train (75) to get to Cary. Before they could service the platform, 73 had to limp back east to offload their passengers, who would then re-board 75 at Cary. While waiting for the offload to take place, 75 creeps west toward a stop signal at Fetner Junction. One of NCDOT's F59PHs is on the east end of the train.

Thanks for your visit and taking the time to comment so I can visit your photos, too... very much appreciated! Have a great day!🙋♀️
This is another one that I check periodically when in the area for other reasons. The right side has collapsed considerably since the last visit and the top of the chimney has fallen off.
In the Forest at the LEwis and Clark National Historic park there were many trees that had fallen and were in various stages of decay.
Another from my recent Talybont trip

A Portland and Western train sits crewless on the siding at Linton, just a few miles west of Portland along the Columbia River. Behind the lead GP39-2 is a long cut of log flatcars.
