If I Were A Fairy
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
If I were a fairy
I'd always be with you
My gray bearded and hairy
Leprechaun in blue
We could be so close
In endless wishing dreams
Where the summer grows
Thru twilight sage beams
If I were a queen
And you were a king
In kingdom of evergreen
Where soft breeze sing
We could give our heart
Flowing endlessly in beat
Where melodies impart
And other worlds meet
If there was no realty
Determined by conclusion
and you would all see
With eyes of illusion
We could be in a dream
King and a queen
Where vague ways seem
The only ones seen
Classic view of the "Nose" from the base of mount Pania Secca one of the most beautiful peaks of Alpi Apuane, in northern Tuscany, Italy.
We found this Cicada on the grass yesterday and Peter put it on one of our grass trees. We googled and found that it is a Cherry Nose Cicada - you can see why LOL.

How about one more from this spot before saying goodbye for now and heading back east to Doswell.
I managed one nose on view of Buckingham Branch Railroad GP40 BB5 (blt. Nov. 1968 as PC 3216 and passing to Conrail and then later working for the Ohio Central) as they paused beside the historic depot momentarily while the conductor chatted with his engineer before alighting to line the switch. Some people I know don't like this scheme, but with this being my first time checking out this shortline I think they look pretty sharp.
The BB has been the operator of this line since 2004 when they leased the old Richmond and Alleghany Division from CSXT, 199 miles from Richmond to Clifton Forge. This route is the historic core of the mighty Chesapeake and Ohio which was created in August 1868, when the Virginia Central (this route) was merged with the Covington and Ohio to form the new C&O. But the rails here can trace back to 1840 when the Louisa Railroad which was chartered in 1836 built west from a connection with the RF&P at Doswell to Gordonsville. Largely supplanted by the low grade route along the James River which had been built in 1880 and acquired by the growing C&O in 1889 this route remained as a secondary mainline for succesors Chessie System and CSXT. A tentative agreement is in place to sell this line to the Commonwealth of Virginia in the coming years though BB will remain the frieght operator and overhead CSXT trackage rights trains should continue to run. To learn about that deal check out this link: www.railwayage.com/passenger/csx-starts-sale-for-virginia...
And for a history of the BB and a system map check out their excellent corporate page: buckinghambranch.com/
Anyway, while in Doswell we heard BB 5 get a track warrant to head west so we drove parallel route 684 until we found them just outside of town finishing up work at the big Martin Marietta quarry. We gave chase to their next stop a dozen miles west where they switched out US Silica at MP 124.1 on the Piedmont Sub just east of the small unincorporated community of Beaverdam.
The historical marker here states that this station was built in 1866 and is actually the fourth on the site with the original having been built in 1840 and destroyed during the Civil War in 1862. Two more were subsequently rebuilt and then burned by Union forces, the final time by cavalry under the command of General George Armstrong Custer.

Kingdom: Plantae
(unranked): Angiosperms
(unranked): Eudicots
(unranked): Rosids
Order: Brassicales
Family: Tropaeolaceae
Genus: Tropaeolum
Nasturtium (literally "nose-twister" or "nose-tweaker"), as a common name, refers to a genus of roughly 80 species of annual and perennial herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Tropaeolum ("Trophy"), one of three genera in the family Tropaeolaceae. It should not be confused with the Watercresses of the genus Nasturtium, of the Mustard family. This genus, native to South and Central America, includes several very popular garden plants, the most commonly grown being T. majus, T. peregrinum and T. speciosum. The hardiest species is T. polyphyllum from Chile, the perennial roots of which can survive underground when air temperatures drop as low as -15°C (5°F).
They have showy, often intensely bright flowers (the intense color can make macrophotography quite difficult), and rounded, peltate (shield-shaped) leaves with the petiole in the center. The flowers have five petals (sometimes more), a three-carpelled ovary, and a funnel-shaped nectar tube in the back.
Tropaeolum species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including Dot Moth and Garden Carpet. A very common "pest" found on Nasturtium in particular is the caterpillar of the Large White (Cabbage White) Butterfly.
The Nasturtiums receive their name from the fact that they produce an oil that is similar to that produced by Watercress (Nasturtium officinale), from the family Brassicaceae.

Millie the one eyed springer spaniel. We will all get old one day, but hopefully our noses will not be as crusty?
Nose on with McDonnell Douglas F-4F Phantom II, 38+10, at Wittmund. This one was used as a Ground Instructional Airframe by JG-71.
EL61/EL56 unusually both nose ahead lead Pacific National's AS935 empty coal train out of Kooragang Island bound from Austar Pelton.
I was nosing around in my archives looking for something to post. Couldn't resist giving this one a little OOB job.

The change in weather in Melbourne tonight must have had an effect on me. One minute I'm sitting down to check email, next minute I feel my nose run in a different way than normal. I soon find myself hunched over the bathroom sink watching globs of red blood land on the white porcelain.
Is it wrong to think about photography in this situation?

Abused & Abandoned Street Dogs.
Young Mama up on the roof at The Dog Palace.
As we speak many things are being readied
for tomorrows run to the temple. Plan goes
like this. No# 1 wife will be with me as we
inoculate all the temple dogs with their
monthly medications. Mr Dr Jon and
Dr Mom will be giving shots to
everybody plus checking
for any health issues.
We plan on leaving just after 8AM, why ?
Because there's no way in hell that I will
jeopardize my wife in the crazy traffic
in the dark time. 5AM 4 me is really
no-big-deal cuz I can deal with it.
I may be a young monkey boy with
no brain for thinking but sometimes
a man must know his limitations. And
taking a foolish chance with no# 1 wife
on board just plain isn't going to happen.
Tomorrow will be another very long day.
No# 1 and the nuns will be able to catch
up on all the stuff they jabber on about.
All the dogs will be cared for plus all the
temple animals will receive their food ;-)~
Thank you for your comments and donations.
Thank You.
Jon&Crew.

Looking from above, I thought this section of sandbar looked like the big nose of a giant, with his two heavy eyelids closing over his eyes.
