Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand, I don't care, I'm still free, you can't take the sky from me..

So yeah, I know it's a piece of gosa, but for something I put together in all of five minutes I thought it turned out well.
EDIT: so this is the same ship as my previous image from 5 minutes ago, just a little more polished.
Built in 1930, this former cable car bridge from the old Yesler Way trolley crosses Lake Washington Blvd in Seattle's Leschi Park.

Well played! Trapped live - government not woking at this time. Table Mountain has been busted and found to be far behind congress and the senate in slacking. It has not even measurably achieved insider trading like the law(makers?).
Aliens from Mars left these thangs during Orson Wells well-documented landing many decades ago. I think the invadres were the scourge of the East Coast as well as the world as a whole until the invaders started to catch our colds. Here they stand idle in a least wind load position in front of lenticular clouding.
Science types among us will be rather happy to note that these installations were used for solar studies some decades ago back as late as the fifties when banking regulation worked (before Ronnie666, Ronald Wilson Reagun) and the top tax rate was a mere 91% when they weren't jacking taxes. Solar disruptions? Ah, the good old days. This was an outfit called ESA if I remember and they are atop Table Mountain Research back when the U.S. wanted to know about stuff. Now few Americans want to know anything! Ages ago I shot for ESA atop the mesa located north of Boulder west of Longmont, Colorado. That was then called the Bureau of Standards then and became NIST, The National Institute of Science and Technology, I think. It was under the Department of Commerce which Peerublican Prick Perry wants to dump so the rich can get an ever larger share. We probably don't really need the Department at this time in the U.S. anyway. The labs in Boulder, Colorado, don't do much of importance we need in the rush to make the uber-rich really comfortable I guess. We can probably just shut the works down and save ever more money. Do they uselessly study monkey sweat glands at the labs along with that pesky cesium clock up on the second floor. All it does is count time as it goes by and flash an LED display that is not horribly interesting. Albeit over 9 million or billion times a second and broadcast it to the rest of the world. I think they use that thingy to synchronize clocks world wide and in space. It probably won't matter if all the generic satelliites and the GPS System get out of sync while we can otherwise save some money. Ignorance can be temporary if caught early and education is funded; stupid is forever!.
Don't ever assume the Peerublicans want you on the gold standard. They want you on the snake oil standard,,, and stupid, too from the look at their support for schools. It is clear they think their collapsing middle class should pay for all their free wars with their taxes though the 1% get to benefit at a far more extensive measure from this pseudo democracy. How many centuries back was it that that fellow St.Joseph found it more profitable to sell the willow bark preparation called aspirin that the Indians had found so many generations ago. He had previously been schlepping snake oil. This is yet one more thing that our poorly educated populace needs to relearn some time in the future. Snake oil standard! Yeppers! Prick Rarie could not wrap his pea brain around just the three terms in his imaginary talking points. I'd guess thinking never gets in the way of politics. or groping gals you don't even know or spending your time in industry mindlessly laying workers off like Romney. He must be just as brain-washed as his poppa when he was putting the boot to the neck of American Motors. And you probably thought that we didn't need to relive the Middle Ages! Shame, please catch up with the new millenium! What do we need, another jackass from Texas? The last one, Boy George, was another of the generic know nothings, and proud of it. Trashing our future will never be a biggie if we can just convince the Chinese to do the same. I wonder if idiot Rickety Perry really has any concept what will happen to his ESPN and HBO if he pulls the plug on the Department of Commerce. A genius! It's a gift that the Dems only want to make empty promises and feather their own nests instead of doing the people's work. Double down. Take all the money out of politics and we will find them that has our interest at heart. R.S.N. or Real Soon Now! Take your pick.
Daily lighting seems to have taken on the urgency of an approaching winter here in the Front Range area of the Rockies. It took a dive on the return to daylight savings. There will once again be a couple of months before the days start to stretch and we have to suffer February. Oh bother!
It's not quite a horseshoe shape, but it does curve a little and reminded me of a mini Niagara Falls. I did love the lighting from the sunset.

*They may look like monsters from a horror film, but these tiny creatures
inhabit our homes, clothes and even our bodies. A new book, 'Micro
Monsters', showcases some of the planet's most horrible insects and
microscopic beasts. British author and trained zoologist, Tom Jackson, spent
three months compiling the images in the book. Scientists coated the tiny
creatures in gold, froze them in liquid nitrogen and fired a beam of
electrons at the subjects from a scanning electron microscope to reveal the
incredible detail*

A view of the castle from the front.
I built this MOC for my LUG's Iron Builder competition. The seed part is the light bley headlight brick.
A recently acquired Diramic micro RSD. Also known as the Petri MF-1 micro and Carena micro RSD. It's missing the removable hotshoe, but a flash can still be used with a sync cable connected to the top. In its previous life, I think it belonged to a building company, considering "Batiment Structure" is engraved on the front and on the bottom plate.
