With the yard of the Navigation Supply Company (purveyors of building materials, and other things) at Canal Wharf dominating the foreground, a coal train almost goes unnoticed as it rides Gauxholme viaduct in this narrow part of Calderdale where road, rail and canal all vie for limited space.
Well unnoticed that is except for the noise which seems to echo around the hills here. The train is the 05.45 Immingham Import Terminal - Fiddlers Ferry Power station coals (6M09) hauled by Freightliner Shed 66536.
The Rochdale Canal is also in shot. Lying on a one-time key transport route moving goods from one side of England to the other over the Pennines, its role is now focused on the leisure boating trade. It's not a cruise for the faint-hearted though with many locks along its course and plenty of hard work as a result. Just about visible (but certainly audible) were a group of school students on the towpath by the lock gates - despite the weather they were no doubt enjoying time away from their desks on the field trip.

This contraption sits just off the beach in Mustang Island State Park near Corpus Christi, Texas.

A very close look reveals a large number of pelicans and cormorants roosting on it.
Painted roof signs on The Navigation Inn, Marsh Road, Middlesbrough.
"Worthington Creamy Low Bitter" and "Bar Snacks" are painted over "Pub Grub" and a magnet logo for another brand of alcoholic beverage. This pub is near Middlesbrough FC Riverside Stadium, hence the sign over the door, "Sorry No Away Supporters".
Update 05/07/11: from a distance it looks like there are new roof tiles and this sign has gone
Originally in the nearby P&O Bank (Peninsula & Orient) it now sits outside 122 Leadenhall Street (aka The Cheesegrater) which is on the site of the original P&O Headquarters.

I've watched my duty, straight an' true
An' tried to do it well;
Part of the time kept heaven in view,
An' part steered clear of hell.

no guidance
given on this paper plat.
spelled out in
lines and letters
of places to go
and boundaries to obey.

pilgrimmage -
when i found my compass
the one with a jewel bearing,
the one navigating my heart.
