When Amtrak refused to renew their lease on space in D&RGW's Provo, Utah train depot, the structure was found to be surplus by the Rio Grande and demolished in January 1987.
Amtrak found itself with no station/facility for passengers to wait for trains. Not even a pay phone. Amtrak arranged to have the D&RGW built for them a "Handi-Hut" transit shelter for California Zephyr passengers.
Only the finest accommodations for Amtrak passengers in Utah's fourth largest city!
Excerpt from northernpeninsula.ca:
Sally's Cove is believed to be named after Sally Short who along with her children, were shipwrecked here while leaving her husband and took shelter in the cove.
One of the area's first settlers was Richard Gilley. Most settlers came from Woody Point and probably fished in the area for years before deciding to stay. The first census was taken in 1884, with a population of 9. By 1891, it had grown to 30 and by 1901; ten years later it was 59. In 1954 a road was built to the community.
When Gros Morne National Park was established, Sally's Cove was designated by Parks Canada to be resettled. By 1976, the population had declined from 430 to 188 and by 1981 to 100. Some residents refused to move, even though there were official restrictions on building and selling and inheriting homes. By the late 1980's these restrictions were removed and Sally's Cove became a park enclave community.
Community and business services in Sally's Cove are extremely limited. These businesses provide food and adventure tourism services. A number of fishing enterprises work out of Sally's Cove and their fishing stores/sheds are located along the community's shoreline/beach.
Sally's Cove is an enclave situated in the center of Gros Morne National Park. Tourist and residents can enjoy a large number of park recreational activities and programs. It is a community well known for its lobster and cod fishing. While residents depend on the nearby towns of Rocky Harbour and Norris Point for education, recreation, and social facilities, there is a community center where local socials can be held.
The beaches of Sally's Cove are very popular with tourists, especially those interested in photography. The community is just a ten minute drive from the scenic Western Brook Fjords, hiking trails, boat tour and rest area.
another one from my early morning puddle reflection sortie.
as I waited for an uninterrupted view on the street I heard the rumble of a truck moments before it came into view, I rallied to the challenge of tweeting the camera settings in just five or six seconds to capture the moving vehicle in the dawn light.
Rather than being an annoyance to the street it adds a Wonderfull feeling of reality to the early morning setting. The driver was most curtious and careful to avoid the puddle in which my camera was located, Thankyou.
The irony was that I crouched next to the bins which this truck was on its way to empty. I was subsequently able to relocate the bins and progress with my session with more of the puddle in view.

"For those aboard the Greg Mortimer in Montevideo, desperation is setting in, crew members told the AP.
The Antarctic cruise set sail from Argentina on March 15, after a pandemic had already been declared. The ship''s physician, Dr. Mauricio Usme, said that when the first passenger fell ill, on March 22, he was pressured by the captain, the cruise operator and owners to modify the health conditions that had to be met for the ship to be admitted into ports.
Dr. Usme refused. The boat anchored in the port of Montevideo on March 27.
More than half of its passengers and crew tested positive for COVID-19. Finally, on April 10, 127 passengers, including some who were infected, were allowed to disembark and fly home to Australia, New Zealand, the U.S., Canada and Europe. Crew members were told to stay on board.
The doctor was hospitalized in an intensive care unit in Montevideo, along with a Filipino crew member, who later died.
"People are exhausted and mentally drained,” said Dr. Usme, now recovered and back on the Greg Mortimer. “It''s a complex situation. You feel very vulnerable and at imminent risk of death.”

Now for the pizza lover, it's rest, relaxation and a large chicken pizza. Who says hard work never pays off?
The subject is trapped in a cage, regardless that it is made of paper. An easy material to break through as seen through the tears in it. Even the lock and the shackles are made of paper aswell which as well can be broken with ease. But these are all obstacles the subject refuses to tackle so she therefore remains trapped with no will to break free of her boundaries.
New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA) R42 car 4830 is the lead motor on a refuse train seen climbing the grade into 20th Avenue Station on the West End Line. One of few daylight refuse train runs, this pickup runs from 38th Street Yard to Jamaica (179th St or Parsons/Archer Aves) via the West End, Culver, Crosstown, and Queens Boulevard Lines collecting trash from stations along the way.

There are people (I've met them) who refuse to eat a banana unless it is a pure pristine yellow. These fools do not realise that such bananas are barely (yet) fit for human consumption. They recoil in horror at the sight of a brown spot, but to me that is a welcome sign that ripeness is approaching.
A liberal brown speckling is a sure sign that the bendy yellow fruit has reached the start of its yumminess stage. And yes it is a fruit - if anyone tells you they are berries then ask them if they put them in a fruit bowl or a berry bowl, or if they add them to a fruit salad or a berry salad, then stand back and observe their confusion and cluelessness.
By far the tastiest bananas I've eaten were in East Africa, where the journey from tree to table is much shorter than in northern Europe, but no-one would dream of eating an unripe banana or bright yellow hue.
I'll admit I have in the past benefitted from people's squeamishness at the sight of anything but yellow on their bananas. It was not unusual for me to arrive at work to see a bunch of completely black-skinned bananas on my desk. Then a colleague would explain: "We were going to throw these away, but we thought you might like them." Peeling them revealed a delicious and nutritious treat, and they seldom lasted beyond elevenses.
You wouldn't judge a book by its cover.
Or would you?

Because Dexter flat out refuses to fetch ANYTHING, we have always had to think of other creative games with him. One of his very favorite activities is to chase down and pop balloons. After a birthday party this past weekend, we had an overstock of inflated balloons, so what better excuse to hit the Green and pop them! As you can see by his focus, he takes this activity VERY seriously.
