Dodge Power Wagon
Ballarat Ghost Town
Trona, California
January 2017
Founded in 1897 as a supply hub for surrounding gold and silver mines, Ballarat once boasted seven saloons, three hotels, and a population of over 500 prospectors seeking fortune in the desert heat. Today, only a handful of crumbling adobe ruins, rusted machinery, and decaying wooden structures remain.
Charles Manson and his 'Family' stayed in the area during the late 1960s. The abandoned Dodge power wagon in this photo is allegedly linked to Manson follower Tex Watson. Some desert historians and researchers debate the exact ownership of the truck though.

Normally a death trap in the warmer months., with slippy moss covered rocks making crossing the water. tricky. The cold weather has killed off a lot of the moss and the rocks now have more of an orange tint. One of those locations that looks great all year round.
Force of Nature - Steam Rocket Bike
Steam Rocket Bike
Steam Rocket Bike
'Force of Nature' is a steam powered 'Rocket' motorcycle built for drag racing, record breaking, exhibitions and events. It uses the latent energy of super-heated pressurised water released through De laval nozzles, where it turns to steam and creates the thrust to propel the bike forwards.
The design brief was to create a Rocket bike like no other: Build quality to rival THE BEST, as well as unique green credentials. No proprietary motorcycle parts were to be used unless they were deemed un-improvable! The idea was to build a steam powered Rocket bike with a potential speed of 200+mph, which had never been achieved before.

66768 heads west across Keadby Bridge, passing the power station under the process of reconstruction. Very much a grab shot as this train rumbled across as we walked away from the swing bridge box.
The spots on the water indicate that despite the blue sky in the background it was actually raining at this point.

Wealth is power. With wealth many things are possible.
George Clason
Power is not all bad, if wielded properly, you can change the world for the better. It gets a bad name from those who abuse it.
For those who may think power is bad, remember the power of Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Princess Diana, and others who sought to bring positive changes to the world.
