RIP - 'An invisible force seemed to be in this place. The grass was unhealthy pale and all the other tombstones seem to lean away from it. No moss, no ivy grew on the stone, and only one word was engraved in its front: Pandora.' (This is a text from E.A. Poe, which I have slightly modified.)
Rip is female Boer goat, named for the tear in her left ear. She's the only female among the five goats at Wright-Locke Farm. She behaves more maturely than the others, but loves a good scratching on her sides.
This is one of those exposures that comes back from the processors with only half the frame processed. The other half was never supposed to be used - it was the end of the roll!
The intent was to broadside the pan shot as the 47 hurried northward on an inter-regional working. In the end I'm quite thankful I managed to retain the entire 'INTERCITY' wording. The lack of bogie detail is due to the sun being directly overhead - that's why I was trying silly shots like this!
47849 was to last in service until December 2001. She was taken to CF Booth's yard in Rotherham and finally broken up during May 2002. RIP.
She was fighting with inoperable cancer for few months, sitting on meds, but cancer grows too fast. Today i finally called to vet, they made her an injection and stop her suffer. She was 18 year old, very smart cat. November 27, 2018.
Taken at a motorbike scramble event in Norfolk in 1987, he was doing the TV commentary and had a prime parking spot near the exit in order to make a quick getaway when the commentary was finished. !!
This was his white VW Golf at the time I believe.
Poor quality of the image is due to poor quality film camera I had and the lens no doubt. {My iPhone takes far better shots nowadays.}
He was missed so much by me when Formula 1 moved on and Murray's excitement was no longer broadcast. Very entertaining.
Murray Walker 10th Oct 1923 - 13th March 2021. RIP
A fast big drop water ride at Universal Islands of Adventure caution you will get soaked on this ride.
Thanks for all your comments and faves below previous shot.
Ad painted on the side of the general store in Koosharem, Utah. That's about 150 miles south of Salt Lake City and not too awfully far from Interstate 70 (to the north) and Interstate 15, to the west. Here's a 2012 image of the same sign from San Jose's G. Dan Mitchell, which suggests strongly the piece has been "renewed "over the years.
John Scowcroft and Sons, the Ogden, Utah, retailer that made Never Rip Overalls (and Made-Rite Shirts and other garments), was founded by an English convert to Mormonism who emigrated to Utah in 1880. His commercial endeavors in his new home are reported to have started in the confectionery and bakery business and later expanded into clothing and dry goods.
It's not clear exactly when Scowcroft and Sons began making "Never Rip Overalls." ZCMI -- Zion's Cooperative Mercantile Institution, the Utah firm formed in the late 1860s to promote Mormon enterprises and entrepreneurs — marketed "never rip" overalls around the turn of the 20th century, as did a New York-based firm that made Keystone Never Rip Overalls. (And "never rip" was a popular sales claim in this era, as evidenced by the slogan for Ypsilanti Health Underwear: "Never rip and never tear — Ypsilanti Underwear.")
But it appears that Scowcroft started a big advertising push for Never Rip Overalls in 1913, so maybe that's when this line started. The company touted the clothes' durability, of course, but put more emphasis on the fact that its products were made in Ogden and that its workers' salaries supported other local businesses. It claimed a weekly payroll of $1,200 to $1,500 for 150 "boys and girls" (the latter sometimes described as "Utah union maids") who produced the goods. Scowcroft also advertised that it was a union shop — apparently organized by the United Garment Workers Union.
Based on those payroll numbers, workers were making an average of $8 to $10 a week. If you figure a 50-hour work week, that would put pay at 16 to 20 cents an hour. Since workers at the plant were paid a piece rate, getting compensated for each item they produced rather than for each hour worked, pay probably varied widely. Scowcroft said in an ad late in the decade that "girls" were started out at $7.50 a week during training but could earn much more — even $27 a week — once they picked up speed. (One government report from this era suggests a typical work week in the garment industry was more like 55 to 60 hours a week. Average wages ranged from 14 to 40 cents an hour depending on the skill involved in the position and workers' gender — then as now, female workers were paid less than men working in the same positions.)

Chesapeakes are cold hardy dogs. They love the snow, the ice, the freezing temperatures, the slush and mush of it all. Rip longs to go north -- far north.

Pedreña, Santander, Cantabria, España y el mundo entero hoy se han levantando con lágrimas en los ojos. Se ha ido uno de los más grandes deportistas que hemos tenido, impulsor del golf en España y en Europa.
Seve, por tú culpa hay un campo de golf hasta en el pueblo de al lado, pegando a las lagunas de Villafáfila. ¿Quién lo pudiera imaginar?
Descanse en paz.
Kiko passed away the Saturday before Thanksgiving of this year (November 18, 2017.)
This photo and the words below were originally posted on Instagram and can be viewed by clicking HERE.
------------
November 18, 2017: At approximately 01:30 this morning Kiko suffered a massive grand mal seizure which continued unabated as I transported him to the emergency room, having him in the hands of the doctors some 40+ minutes after the seizure began.
.
At the time of his arrival into the ER his body temperature was 108 degrees Fahrenheit. They administered phenobarbital and Valium, which quelled his seizure. He subsequently lapsed into a coma. At about 7:00am the ER doctor informed me Kiko was still unresponsive and they were having a difficult time bringing his blood pressure up to normal.
.
People and animals are not breathing while in seizure so in addition to the high temperature he also was not getting oxygen to his brain for the duration of the seizure.
.
Believing there was a significant chance of brain damage because of the high temp and lack of oxygen during the ~45 minutes of being in seizure, and not wanting this baby animal to ever again experience what happened in the wee hours of this morning OR the incident he had two weeks ago, which may or may not have been related, I made the decision to send him to a place where he will never again suffer.
.
He was my joy.
.
Rest peacefully, Kiko. You were loved by all who encountered you. You were everything to me.
.
Those who met Kiko likely remember his loving and playful nature. He never met a living creature he didn’t like.
.
This is the first photo I posted of Kiko, taken his first full day here at his forever home on August 17th. I’m sad he never experienced snow.

If you see him in the park
Walking by himself
Talking to himself, have pity.
He is working through the unimaginable.
The corner of Mitre Square is where the horribly mutilated body of Catherine Eddowes was found by PC Edward Watkins at 1:45 AM on the 30th of September 1888. It then became known as Ripper's Corner.

Moving house these will be unfortunately cut and thrown out. No room for them and they no longer fit me 😢
Midge is finishing up her curtain by pressing it. It is ready to hang in her new kitchen!
Armoire, chair, garbage can, sewing form, brown basket: modern Barbie repainted. I added real cork to the inside doors and used shortened pins as tacks. I used wood for the work bench. I bought this armoire used and the little shelf was missing. I was disappointed it was missing when I got it, but I actually like the wood better. It breaks up all of the white.
Sewing Machine on top: vintage Galoob
Sewing Machine, Basket, supplies in armoire: Re-ment
Ironing Board & Iron: Gloria repainted. It came with the washer and dryer set. I made a new ironing board cover in a nice cotton. It is a great set and I recommend getting it and repainting it. Cannot wait to show you Barbie & Midge's laundry room :)
TV: vintage Barbie
Mug: Re-ment
Patterns, Cutting Board, Photos: printed on my home printer
This is just a temporary diorama. This floor and the walls will be for Barbie's bedroom. I still have to add molding and wall art. I have to find a permanent place to store Midge's sewing nook. It may end up being a corner in Midge's bedroom. That is just a sparkle in my mind right now. Such fun things to imagine!
What do you think: manufacturing error, degeneration or an act of sabotage?

I didn’t know you personally, but as a photographer and explorer, I knew your work well. It’s impossible to be in the bay, especially Oakland, and not know who you were. From what I’ve read you were a genuine soul and brought people happiness. My heart and condolences go out to your family, friends and crew. The San Francisco Bay Area lost a legend in the game.
