It's amazing how a little powder and paint can make a pigs ear into a silk purse. Trying the curly hair again as I fancy a change for tomorrow night
Powder snow formed the clouded landscape in a fantastic manner. Image taken in the late afternoon at the Juifenalm (2022m a.s.l.). Lüsenstal, Sellrain, Tyrol, Austria 2014.
A cool spring evening after a warm day has everyone thinking about cars. Joe (Yo-Yo) Helmer fuels up his new 1969 Shelby GT350. The gas station is known locally as the Powder Puff. It catered mainly to female travelers and included a powder room. It was supplied by Dixie Oil (Dixie Gas, The Power to Pass). The station has been gone for too many decades and in its prime included a service building, six small rental cabins and a miniature golf course. The mini Puff was built from the original blueprints supplied from an architectural firm in Green Bay, Wi and the help of Robert Leberak who's father was a coowner for many years.

The Powder Mills were built in 1844, a factory for making gunpowder which was built on the open moor, not far from Postbridge. Gunpowder was needed for the tin mines and granite quarries then in operation on the moor. The buildings were widely spaced from one another for safety and the mechanical power for grinding ("incorporating") the powder was derived from waterwheels driven by a leat.
Now known as "Powdermills" or "Powder Mills", there are extensive remains of this factory still visible. Two chimneys still stand and the walls of the two sturdily-built incorporating mills with central waterwheels survive well: they were built with substantial walls but flimsy roofs so that in the event of an explosion, the force of the blast would be directed safely upwards. The ruins of a number of ancillary buildings also survive. A proving mortar—a type of small cannon used to gauge the strength of the gunpowder—used by the factory still lies by the side of the road.

Two skiers making "eights" on Alta's East Baldy face. It's been a few days since we had a storm but terrain openings like this keep making untouched snow available. Next storm is supposed to be here on Wednesday.
Found out after the fact that these two were skiing for a video.

What an insane winter we're having in Utah! I think we've had over 6 feet of new snow in less than 10 days and more is on the way in just a couple of days. Bonus: the sun came up this morning and delivered a surprise bluebird powder day. I'll never get tired of taking photos like this.
Built in 1886 for the storage of gunpowder used in blasting for the construction of the Long Pier and the New Harbour at Seahouses.
My daughter signed up for a Powder Puff Football game at school. They practiced a few days this week and the game was today. Here she is after the game. It's good to be 15.
A powder skiing photo from a few weeks ago at Alta Ski Resort. There was high cloud cover that day and the snow was super light, creating perfect conditions for a painterly ski photo. Besides the skier and snow wave, I love the trees in the background of this photo. They make the shot for me.

A couple of coal trains meet at MP 41 in the Powder River Basin. Interestingly the power consists are opposites from a paint scheme perspective.
My wife and I have skied every Christmas since we met. The last couple of years Christmas has been dry. So it was nice to ski powder on Christmas again, even if it was only a few inches. We've had a dry start this season so any snow is good. And it looks like we've turned the corner with a huge storm cycle just starting.

We had a photoshoot in AP Photo today. Here's Day 1's results. Hopefully will have a day two tomorrow!

UP 8024 brought more than a heavy hauler through Yuba Gap, it brought the weather with it. Once the train arrived, the light flakes of powder soon turned into fat snowflakes. Enough to coat the ballast, and enough to bring out the chain law on Interstate 80.

I believe this was the powder magazine at Fort Anne in Annapolis Royal N.S.
The roof style makes it look like a relic from the French, who had a fort on the site before the British.
Our visit to the Hagley Museum put us in the middle of gunpowder history. In 1802 Dupont he sited and began building the mill along the Brandywine River near Wilmington. Brandywine River Powder Mills produced its first gunpowder in 1803. Started as a large-scale, sophisticated manufactory, Brandywine maintained operations for 119 years. The Brandywine River Powder Mills performed shell loading and some smokeless nitrations during World War I. On this property there are 8 rolling mills water wheel & water turbine in different degrees of decay. Brandywine Creek on one side and a man-made water sloth on the other side of the mills kept the powder yard safe from the risk of explosion.
The ski season began for me on Saturday and it was a very good start. We had a two-foot storm and Saturday was storm skiing, all day. I'm a cautious early season skier so I didn't venture far from the groomers. However, blown in cream was plentiful, as you can see here. There's more snow on the way this week and my legs are doing fine. So I may have some real powder photos to share in a few days.
