MONTH OF AUGUST THEME: SKELETONS IN ACTION: MOVEMENT IS THE KEY

Autrefois, les radeliers de la Durance transportaient par flottage les grumes de bois nécessaires à la construction des maisons des cités provençales et à la construction navale de la Marine Royale notamment pour les chantiers de Toulon et de Marseille. Il leur fallait plusieurs jours pour rallier la Provence depuis les Hautes-Alpes, debouts sur les radeaux, sans autre protection que leur courage et leur détermination. C'étaient souvent des paysans qui trouvaient dans cette activité un complément de revenu.
Aujourd'hui, les radeliers qui veulent perpétuer la mémoire de cette activité disparue depuis plus d'un siècle, passent plusieurs mois pour reconstruire des radeaux selon les techniques de l'époque. Cette année a eu lieu la 22ème reconstitution historique entre l'Argentière la Bessée et Embrun. Mais le niveau de l'eau de la Durance est très bas, à cause de la sècheresse. Hélas, le radeau de tête a heurté des rochers et s'est mis en travers de la rivière au niveau d'Embrun, empêchant la poursuite de l'événement. Pas de blessé, heureusement ! Cet incident rappelle combien cette pratique du flottage du bois sur la Durance était périlleuse.

Formerly, the rafters of the Durance transported by floating the logs necessary for the construction of the houses of the Provençal cities and the naval construction of the Royal Navy in particular for the sites of Toulon and Marseille. It took them several days to reach Provence from the Hautes-Alpes, standing on the rafts, with no other protection than their determination. They were often peasants who found in this activity a supplement of income. Today, the rafters who want to perpetuate the memory of this activity, which disappeared for more than a century, spend several months rebuilding rafts using the techniques of the time.
When the world is a monster
Bad to swallow you whole
Kick the clay that holds the teeth in
Throw your trolls out the door

Im Frühjahr zeigen sich zunächst mal die Blüten, die in den kalten Monaten von Februar bis April mit ihrer Strahlkraft beeindrucken. Das kräftige Goldgelb ist ein echter Hinkucker, die leuchtenden Blütendolden werden aber überdies noch von einem angenehmen Duft begleitet.
In spring, the blossoms are the first to appear, impressing with their radiance during the cold months from February to April. The vibrant golden yellow is a real eye-catcher, and the bright flower clusters are also accompanied by a pleasant fragrance.
I really do not know what I would of done without my 3 cats to keep me sane during these 2 months of isolation.
Apparently we will be allowed to go out for a walk or a bicycle ride from the 4th May onwards.
I will be going out even if it is pouring down with rain.
Another Tuesday morning run to Pueblo for the Rock & Rail almost two months to the day since my last visit, and what a difference some rain...or a lot of rain...makes. The train is seen here rounding the curve at Goodnight siding. Unfortunately, the crew will return to Portland light power, thus ending my excursion on the Rock & Rail for today.

"O months of blossoming, months of transfigurations,
May without cloud and June stabbed to the heart,
I shall not ever forget the lilacs or the roses
Nor those the spring has kept folded away apart."

Here is my monthly non long exposure shot. While many of us would like to have seen more sea fog at the Golden Gate in recent months, there have been a few key events to marvel at. It's a very simple phenomenon, to be sure, but makes for interesting photography, nonetheless.
The thing with this moment (and do mean moment) was the way the hill just seemed to grow a fuzzy wool sweater of fog.
Thanks for having a look!

I've already had a lot of disdain for my body, for the hair on my body, they always told me it was "disgusting" "thing of dirty people" "no hygiene".
Today, I am totally proud of being what I am and how I am.
I consider myself a sexy as fuck bear! And that's enough.
A bear and gay man, that's too much for society! Long live our month, long live pride month!
That's how long Sid's been with us. Some day's it feels like he's been around forever, other times he lets us know, hey, we're not that tight yet! I don't know if he'll ever be the lap cat Cleo was, but Sid is letting us know that he likes us and is ok hanging out with us. He takes our chin and ear rubs and gives us some purrs and chirps in return. I can wait for the lap snuggles
June is turning into a very floral month, photography wise for me! Oldmangellyroo is progressing nicely now, and after he'd recovered from his cocktail of drugs in the morning the three of us sallied forth to the Clare Open Gardens. We wandered around some quite wonderful gardens, and took far too many pictures, collapsed in the pub for a soda and lime (honest!!!) and returned home weary and happy.
