Will Rogers/Wiley Post fly in at the childhood home of Will Rogers. I never saw Will Rogers or Wiley Post, but did see this gentleman more than once, stopped and visited for a while with him. A very nice man who for the day at least was Clement Rogers, Will's father
Another image from a morning out over Christmas of these wonderful rocks in the Peak District.
I've just seen an image by Paul Newcombe of these rocks, it really is something special. You can see it on his flickr gallery, well worth a look!
A westbound Canadian Pacific intermodal train passes a set of helpers at Rogers, British Columbia, on September 16, 2002. Some tunnel work was being done on the Mount Macdonald Tunnel, requiring some westbound trains to use the older, steeper main line through the Connaught Tunnel, briefly requiring the use of helpers out of Rogers once again.
We're heading eastwards towards the Rockies now and on the way from Revelstoke to Golden we took a brief stop at Rogers Pass, which is 1330 metres above sea level. This sounds a modest height but is only 13 metres shy of the highest point in the UK.
Rogers Pass is a high mountain pass through the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia, but the term also includes the approaches used by the Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) and the Trans-Canada Highway. In the heart of Glacier National Park, this National Historic Site has been a tourist destination since 1886.
I'm going to be taking a short break from Flickr as we're heading to Bangkok for a few days. Thanks in advance for your feedback - I hope you all have a great week ahead!
Beautiful Rogers Spring is in the Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge. This area around the spring is a jarring contrast to the surrounding chemical desert. The water of the spring is deep and clear, and inhabited by pupfish. The outflow makes a small creek that flows for several hundred yards.

Es ist das erste Mal, dass Guidi, die mit ihren Sandmandala-Gemälden internationale Anerkennung gefunden hat, eine Ausstellung präsentiert, die sich ausschließlich mit Landschaften beschäftigt. Diese neuen Gemälde werden in der Richard Rogers Gallery präsentiert, einem ruhigen Raum, der sich über die ländliche Hügellandschaft der Provence erheb

As he walked deeper into the forest, General Rogers couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
He served in Afghanistan a few years ago. During his tour of duty, he learned to live with danger. He walked that fine line between life and death dozens of times.
But this was different. This... feeling. As if a superior being was watching him. Something beyond his understanding.
Whispers swirled through the small towns near the Woods,stories of strange beings that roamed the forest, casting an eerie spell over it. Mainly because of the glowing lights that danced on the trees at night. For this reason, no one would ever dare enter.
Every fiber of his being screamed for him to turn back, to listen to his survival instincts. But he couldn't. His daughter, Lauren, had been missing for several days and this was the one place no one had dared to search.
There was no turning back. Even if that meant losing his life, all he could do is moving forward.

The next thirteener on the list was Rogers Peak, 13,391 feet, which is off on a flank of Mt. Evans. Even though it wasn't a long hike or a big elevation gain, there wasn't any trail and we had to pick our way though big boulders to get to the summit. This female bighorn came wandering by while I was taking a rest break on the way down, still shedding her winter coat in August.

Unfortunately I did not speak with Mr Rogers until I was on my way out, but what a super nice fella with a hell of a sense of style! His hand carved walking stick was all the way from Barbados, and the hat and tie just set off the outfit perfectly! Wish I had more time to spend getting to know him, but maybe I'll head downtown again next week and run into him!

Rogers pass is one of the most fantastic passes I have seen in my life. It is inside Glacier National Park, which is according to the books a less well known park. I made a few nice hikes here (more pics later), and my campsite was just a few km's before the actual highest point of the pass. I tried to conceal the road in this pic, i almost managed to do it, except for a very small stretch of the road, and the sign towards the visitor center.
From 11 june till the 25th of July, I traveled in Canada. Starting in Brighton Ontario, where my sister lives at the border of an amazing part of lake Ontario, I flew to Vancouver, and Vancouver island where I took the boat at Port Hardy to take part 1 of the Inside passage, to Prince Rupert in BC. Two days later I took part 2 to Skagway in Alaska. When coming from Skagway Alaska, you can take the train to Carcross. it is a very scenic train ride that halts at Bennet lake.
And then to Whitehorse and further on by car to Kluane National park in the Yukon district. Whitehorse is situated at the border of the Yukon. Frow there I flew back to Vancouver, rented a car, and traveled three weeks in the BC- and Alberta Rockies, visiting the famous, and less famous Nature parks like Banff and Jasper. Last few days back to Brighton Ontario to enjoy lake Ontario once more, before going home. A picture of my itinerary can be found on Facebook (www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152940536581759&set...).
4000 pictures later, it is quite a task to show the right stuff, although the stunning scenery guarantees at least a few great shots to share. Objective will be to make a book (for myself mainly), and that might take a while.
I hope you will enjoy the impression of my travel, one that equals earlier journeys to Alaska and south America, this journey was the first in the digital era, and equally intensive because of all the hiking activities every day on and on. I loved every minute of it.
Nine o'clock mornings, five o'clock evenings
I'd liven the pace if I could
Oh, I'd rather have a ham in my sandwich than cheese
But complaining wouldn't do any good
Lay back in my armchair
Close eyes and think clear
I can hear hoofbeats ahead
Roy and Trigger have just hit the hilltop
While the wife and the kids are in bed
Oh, and Roy Rogers is riding tonight
Returning to our silver screens
Comic book characters never grow old
Evergreen heroes whose stories are told
Oh, the great sequin cowboy
Who sings of the plains
Of roundups and rustlers
And home on the range
Turn on the TV, shut out the lights
Roy Rogers is riding tonight
– Elton John, Roy Rogers
"Rogers Centre: On June 3, 1989 the 'Skydome' now called the 'Rogers Centre', officially opened. At a whopping $570M construction cost, this 53,000 seat stadium took just over three years to complete and has been the home of the Toronto Blue Jays ever since."
The Rogers Theater another view of this beautiful old theater, great architecture and wonderful stage plays, found in North Carolina.
I don't think I'll ever get up that high again, was quite a hike and I'm not getting any younger. lol
Rogers Pass (elevation 1,330 m or 4,360 ft) is a high mountain pass through the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia used by the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Trans-Canada Highway. The pass is a shortcut across the "Big Bend" of the Columbia River from Revelstoke on the west to Donald, near Golden, on the east. The pass was discovered on May 29, 1881, by Major Albert Bowman Rogers, a surveyor working for the Canadian Pacific Railway. Rogers had a second pass named for him in 1887 in Montana, c.373 miles to the south-east. - Wikipedia
