I went to the basement to look for a particular matchbox which I had in mind but then I came across these tiny matchsticks which I didn't even know existed. They are less than 3cm long and the little pot is maybe 1.8 cm high. I have no box for them so the pot will have to do. I combined the matches with other items that are just as tiny (a candelabra, a good book :) and a cup of something hot and comforting). Not that the weather calls for a hot drink at the moment, but it went with my theme :) I used Xmas wrapping as wallpaper. I found lots of good tiny things today, I need to get them out and use them. MM is perfect for it. I sacrificed one matchstick to see if it would burn and yes it definitely does. A surprisingly bright flame and the "stick" burned slow enough not to burn my fingers. I did not try to burn the candles :)

Holly is our advertising model today for reading, and for choosing fun and appropriate books! I am not so sure she should have picked a book about a mouse . . . Hmmm. :)

“..reading a book doesn’t mean just turning the pages. It means thinking about it, identifying parts that you want to go back to, asking how to place it in a broader context, pursuing the ideas. There’s no point in reading a book if you let it pass before your eyes and then forget about it ten minutes later. Reading a book is an intellectual exercise, which stimulates thought, questions, imagination.” ~Occupy
Norfolk Southern 1067, the Reading Heritage Unit, is in charge of manifest train MG3AH as it rolls past the famous JB Tower in West Chicago, IL, on this very cold and windy April afternoon. Prior to 2022, foreign leaders had been forbidden on the Union Pacifc's Geneva Sub due to ATC Cab Signal requirements. Once PTC went into full effect on the Geneva, then it became anything goes. While foreign leaders are still rare, they do happen with a decent frequency. Rarer still though is catching a foreign Heritage Unit, such as 1067 here. I believe this was the unit's 2nd round trip leading on the Geneva since PTC started, but what makes this trip special is 1067 is looking resplendent having emerged from the paint shop just days before, and is on one of its first revenue runs after being cleared for service.
Since I am home most of the time now, I am looking for things around the house to shoot. These are my reading glasses.
Macro Mondays: Everyday Carry
"This week, set your wallet/keys/phone aside and check your pockets or purse for the lip balm, pocket knife, lighter, flashlight, inhaler, multitool, floss, whistle, etc. that's always with you when you walk out the door."
For me this would also be glasses and a book, good thing I usually carry a big purse! :) Sometimes when you are waiting at an appointment or being on your lunch break it is good to have a book to read.
Thanks to all for your visit! HMM!
The main reading room on the 3rd floor at the New York Public Library on 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue.
Reading is one of my passions, an escape for a few hours, where I can be transported to a whole new world of mystery, thrills or drama, depending on what mood I fancy. I must admit that these days I tend to read more on my Kindle app, very convenient being able to enlarge the text but nothing can quite beat the smell and feel of a real book.
Thanks for viewing and HCT 😀
The Columbia & Reading Railway operates about one and a quarter miles of the timetable western end of the former Reading’s Reading & Columbia Branch. The mainstay business is a scrapyard that generates several carloads per week, and a freight car rebuilding business has also located along the line. Power is this Alco S2, seen here shut down for the weekend in Columbia, Pennsylvania.

Using a magnifying glass to highlight certain parts. Today's Age Newspaper along with a toy Christmas soldier. This magnifying glass has 2 parts - a larger green less magnifying part and a smaller green higher magnification. One of the reasons I like eBooks is that you can change the font size very easily for ageing eyes! HSoS this hot summers day in Melbourne
