Our new bird feeder .... said to be squirrel proof, but I guess this squirrel didn't get the message!
Proof load (110% of rated capacity) deck cranes on MV Fortune to 198 tonne using water load bags at Lascells Wharf Geelong.
One of a set of 4 Zara skirts in different colours. I hadn't worn this skirt in a while and so wearing it now is proof enough that it's always good to keep things in one's wardrobe even if not worn for a while.
On one of the few times the sun shone in Birmingham during the diversions during the Proof House Junction rebuilding was 23rd February 1986. Viewed from a position on the embankment off Aston Church Road in Washwood Heath 86 251 'The Birmingham Post' is heading south with the 08.37 Wolverhampton to Euston train. In the lower left corner is the fledgling Henry Taroni car scrap yard, today it is a vast business disposing of unwanted cars.

This is another of the paintings with a vertical horizontal format that I have been posting this week. Part of what interests me at the moment is the narrative character of these paintings. The protagonist of these paintings–and the principle subject of much of my work–is my daughter Temma. Significantly Temma is profoundly disabled and has little agency.
This painting was prompted by the first time I heard my wife Sherrie preach. She was working as a counselor at that time and the pastor of the church we were attending invited her to preach. That first sermon was related to the text of "doubting" Thomas, the disciple of Jesus who said he would only believe Jesus had risen from the dead if had proof: that is, if he could put his hand in Jesus' side where there was a wound from a centurion's spear. Here Temma's hand hangs over the edge of a crypt-like space. A space where–perhaps–we (the viewer of the painting) implicitly reside. Incidentally that space is a nod to the similar space in the Bellini painting of the (dead?) Christ standing in a tomb that you can see if you swipe.
At the top of the painting are four children whose stances suggest that they are perhaps flying kites. But there are no kites to be seen in the sky. However, if you swipe you can see that a “Bahng-Pae”( Korean for 'shield') kite is lying on the ground behind Temma’s head. It’s state suggests that it has more to do with the earth than the sky.
There are times that brotherly love can be torture. Especially when Mom has the camera on. An unprompted "I love You" moment captured.

Proof that during the pandemic I have not been driving around a lot. During the course of an oil change, the technician found that the cabin air filter desperately needed changing! As a dear one put it, “some critters had a staycation in your car!!”
Crazy Tuesday stripes (or maybe they are more truly folds?)
……..Would anyone like to see what a new clean one looks like? (see the first comment box)
30 years ago with my best friends in my heaven. We were 4 she was 2...Yes really his hairs like this and he was very handsome...i guess i played boys too much then i became a tomboy !
that someone actually signaled their lane change.
I-84 at night f/22. I pulled over trying to get the moon rise but from this overpass it wasn't visible. So, even without my tripod, I decided to try some long exposures...
Happy Nokeh Wednesday!

Well, I can't actually prove it was a mermaid, but I do have significant facts to back up my claim. I couldn’t see any feet, she was diving into a small pool in an idyllic setting, and she didn't have a top on.… she just had to be a mermaid. That is my ample evidence and I think that should be proof enough for most. As I was too shy at the time of the sighting to interrupt her mermaid duties by taking a photograph, I came back the next day and figured that someone must have scared her away because only a still empty pond remained to remind me of my almost perfect photograph. Alas, I'm on to continue my search for Bigfoot... I expect him to be topless also.

To an uneducated fool like myself, I needed a map to exactly see what was going on with railroad history in this part of the world. I just assumed that the L&N always had control of any trackage pointed towards Hazard. Well, I now know that the C&O actually built part of the territory CSX utilizes nowadays. C&O's E&BV Subdivision continues north from this point til Martin Yard and then needs a little help from the Big Sandy Extension to reach the Big Sandy Sub at Beaver Junction in Allen City, KY.
On the south end of the C&O trackage at Deane, KY there was a common load out that was served by both the C&O and L&N. Early on in the CSX era they decided to blow a hole in the hillside north of the loadout and create a connection between the two subdivisions. Seamless operation now occurs between the Rockhouse Sub (L&N) and the E&BV/Big Sandy.
