Back in April of 2012, I shot a night photo at this very location. Montpelier Station just outside of Orange, Virginia. It is posted to this FLICKR page near the earliest photos at the bottom of the stream with the EMDX 2012 SD70ACe "Demonstrator".
In 2012, my sister was only dating her husband, my niece didn't exist, and my first dog Dunkin was only 8 years old and still a ball of energy.
Now in 2019, my sister and brother-in-law have been married five years, they have a 6 year old daughter and Dunkin has since crossed the Rainbow Bridge and we've added "TJ" the Aussie to the family.
Here all of them are seen watching NS 8105, the Interstate "heritage unit" lead a stack train by the old Southern Railway Station which has been restored as a historic exhibit to its Segregationist Era.
A picture of a watch without anything else is at worst an image of someone else’s art and at best can be a showcase for the photographer’s expertise at exposure and composition. This image has more meaning to me than you may grasp at first glance so I’ll complete the story here. SPOILER ALERT: It’s a bit long so if you’d like to skip it ... that’s Okay. Just remember to enjoy Today.
The title may attract the attention of a few people already familiar with the acronym. More later ... I purchased the timepiece pictured some 50 or more years ago and it has always been a disappointment ... it still looks almost pristine! It’s promise was that it was self-winding, that is by some engineering magic once it was wound and put on my wrist it somehow was supposed to stay wound enough to keep “good time”. Well, here’s the basic truth; if I wind it up and let it lay on the shelf it will keep perfect time until it runs down in a couple of days. If put it on my wrist it will randomly stop for 5 or 10 minutes at a time from the first hour on ... making it functionally useless!
In the mid-80s after a life changing event I learned that I can only live One Day at a Time (ODaaT). I realized this independent worthless timepiece is in fact a constant reminder that I only have today ... yesterday is history and tomorrow is not yet in play.
It has no other numbers than today’s calendar number and day ... today ... if I keep it wound. My every attempt to use it for my purposes by wearing it ... my actions ... screws up it’s basic time keeping function so if I let go and let it do it’s thing on the shelf all works just fine. I’m some 16 years into retirement and I removed my “working” watch the day I retired ... I know where time is being kept and I can freely live TODAY. If you got this far Happy Macro Monday ... and enjoy today. HMM Everyone.

**Subject** Lucky Number.
Yes, my lucky number is #17.
This started many years ago, when I was about 14 years old. I used to have season passes to go to the Philadelphia Wings Lacrosse Team's home games.. *I attended almost every single one*.. and I was a huge fan. I used to LOVE Tom Ryan # 17... and Bergee # 66 ,, the goalie. They were my favorites.
So those # s are still my lucky numbers.. They haven't changed or waivered. My favorite numbers.
& That is the reason why!

Of the hundreds of bear shots I ultimately took, this was the very first. All shots after this day were taken from the relative safety of a small boat, handled by a very experienced skipper. For this sow, I was on foot, on the opposite bank of the Atnarko River among some other tourists who I hoped looked tastier than I!
After my speed-visit to the fabulous classic vehicle museum Metropole, Druten, I discovered some twelve classic German Fords. Members of the Dutch Ford Taunus club were enjoying a nice activity there...
This is one of the last Taunus P6 sold in the NL.
The Ford Taunus P6 was available as a 2-door and a 4-door saloon, as a 3-door estate car and as a 2-door coupe. On the base of the Taunus estate also a panel van was for sale.
The P6 had four engine options: 1200, 1300, 1500 and a 1700.
The P6 15m was recognizable by its narrow, rectangular taillights. The bodywork was otherwise identical to the P6 12m.

As I was in search of inspiration for a new clock design, I lit this single tube, capriciously selecting the number five. It remained lit on my work table for five days, after which and coincidentally, the final design was complete in my mind. It was then time to set to work.

These are bells meant for birds of prey, which I use on my dogs' collars. Ralph wears the large ones meant for Eagles and Buzzards, and the girls wear the little ones for Kestrels and Hawks.They all sound different so I can hear where they are in the garden .

" We had new orders ! Destroy the A-series assassin droids, before they could kill some Jedi. I kinda failed. Kinda. For me it is okay, but less for command. I destroyed every assassin droids I met , but some of them found some Jedis, and Padawans before me. Not even able to protect themselves from a droid. I have the feeling that we, from the 253rd, are the babysitters of these Jedis. I had to take care of a Padawan who's master was lost. By lost, I mean he was killed. The Jedi, his apprentice and a couple of clone attacked a trench held by Nationalists. Most of the clone died. Well, all of them in fact. The Jedis made it into the trench, and started to cut some arms. And head. Stuffs like that. But then the assassin droid I was tracking found them. He shot the Jedi in the back, and was about to do the same to the Padawan, but I killed it before it could do that regrettable act . Then the Padawan get shot by one of the few Nationalists who were remaining. I finished what the Jedis started in the trench. Only one Nationalist was alive. He was yelling in pain, as the Jedi, before he died, cut his leg.
/CT-1024-52, Me/ Hey, Padawan. Achieve this man. He's suffering.
/Padawan/ .. No ! I ... I can't ! I can't ! No !! Help me to get out of there !
/CT-1024-52, Me/ Not until you achieve him.
/Padawan/ Why don't you do it yourself ?
/CT-1024-52, Me/ Always the clones who have to do the dirty work right ? No, I don't want to.
/Padawan/ You said he was suffering. Do it
/CT-1024-52, Me/ No. I don't give a fuck if he's suffering. I don't want to. You should be happy that I'm not mutilating him right now. But, you don't like to see him suffer. You're a Jedi after all. Well, sort of.
He stabbed the men in is heart
/Padawan/ Now help to get out of here. I'm wounded.
/CT-1024-52, Me/ I don't care. Get out that trench alone. I already saved your life. Twice.
/Padawan/ Twice ?
/CT-1024-52, Me/ The A-serie droid first, then the Nationalists. Twice. Now get out of there, we're moving. The command, unlike me, would be happy to see a Jedi alive. Even if you're not really a Jedi.
/Padawan/ You're completly insane.
/CT-1024-52, Me/ Yeap, I know. I'm fucked up. I'm a bit of a psychopath... But adapted to this war.
Indeed I was. Jabiim is an hell. I liked it at first, but now, I just want to get out of there. Because of the wrong decisions from command, we will lost. It's sure. Alpha, Kenobi, and most of the Jedis generals are missing. Or dead. I think that none of us will leave this planet alive."

Central Park,
Garden Village, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada
One of 13 owl Eco-sculptures. Each owl is a different species, and represents one of Canada's 13 provinces and territories.
Burnaby has a wide selection of owl species - including the barn owl, barred owl and great horned owl. The sculptures call attention to the declining number of owls and remind us of the community's important role to help conserve owl populations,

Looking back, the last week of June 2018 produced some marvellous sunsets at Porthmeor Beach, St. Ives, Cornwall, resulting in a vast number of beautiful sunset shots. This is just one of that number. There are 28 images in this set and they can be viewed in the associated album.
...On highway number nineteen
The people keep the city clean
They call it Nutbush, oh Nutbush
They call it Nutbush city limits.
Tina Turner popped into my head when I was editing this old pile of bones, purely for the fact there is an outhouse in the mix. For a fallen collective, they sure do make a nice picture.

El paseo de los filósofos (哲学の道 Tetsugaku-no-michi, lit. Camino de la Filosofía) es un camino peatonal que sigue un canal con muchos cerezos en Kioto, Japón entre los templos Ginkaku-ji y Nanzen-ji. Fue abierto en 1890 y se amplió en 1912, el camino sigue el curso de un canal de riego poco profundo que trae agua del Canal del Lago Biwa. La ruta recibió su nombre gracias a dos filósofos japoneses y profesores de la Universidad de Kioto del siglo XX, Nishida Kitaro y Hajime Tanabe, que se cree que lo utilizaron a diario para hacer ejercicio. El camino pasa por varios templos y santuarios, como Hōnen-en, Ōtoyo Shrine, o Eikan-dō Zenrin-ji. Se tarda aproximadamente 30 minutos en dar el paseo completo, aunque muchas personas tardan más al pausar a ver todo lo que hay a lo largo del camino. En el extremo septentrional del paseo hay vistas buenas del cercano Daimonji. El paseo es un destino popular para turistas y lugareños, especialmente durante hanami.

The Philosopher's Walk (哲学の道, Tetsugaku-no-michi, lit. Path of Philosophy) is a pedestrian path that follows a cherry-tree-lined canal in Kyoto, Japan between Ginkaku-ji and Nanzen-ji. First opened in 1890 and extended again in 1912, the path follows the course of a shallow irrigation channel bringing water from the Lake Biwa Canal. The route is so-named because two 20th-century Japanese philosophers and Kyoto University professors Nishida Kitaro and Hajime Tanabe are thought to have used it for daily exercise. The path passes a number of temples and shrines such as Hōnen-in, Ōtoyo Shrine, and Eikan-dō Zenrin-ji. It takes about 30 minutes to complete the walk, although many people spend more time visiting the sights along the way. On the northern part of the walk, there are good views of the nearby Daimonji. The walk is a popular destination for tourists and locals, especially during hanami.
GN SD9 1727, still wearing its old Burlington Northern Cascade Green, sits in Brookfield Junction Park near Brookfield Public Library. GN 1727 was originally built as CB&Q 352 in August 1955, and was passed down to BN as BN 6154 til eventually making it to BNSF. In late 2006, the now BNSF 6154 was renumbered to BNSF 1727 to make room for the new ES44ACs being delivered by General Electric, and was eventually put on the GN (General Numbering) roster as GN 1727 soon after in 2010. GN 1727 was donated to the City of Brookfield in October 2017, and has since been on display near the old CB&Q mainline these locomotives once ruled.

Sgwd Clun-Gwyn waterfall.
Waterfall Country (or sometimes Waterfalls Country) is the name given to an area around the head of the Vale of Neath in South Wales where an unusually large number of spectacular and publicly accessible falls are to be found. Virtually all of the falls occur on tributaries of the River Neath occupying valleys that have been deeply incised into the landscape.
Sgwd Clun-Gwyn, aka the 'fall of the white meadow' is the uppermost of the three celebrated falls on the River Mellte. It is formed where a north-northwest to south-southeast trending fault brings hard sandstone up against softer mudstone.
