Up early for a doctor's appointment today - as I suspected, all was well with the scan I had the other day and it looks like I did indeed have gastritis a few weeks ago, plus most likely a stomach bug more recently. Feeling much better now - although still properly knackered from our few days in Amsterdam!
Got into work early and had a busy day again - just have so much to do at the moment. I went for a walk with my camera at lunchtime - got quite a few shots, and also ran into an old climbing pal, Eric. Haven't seen him for years, so was nice to catch up briefly.
Had my appraisal this afternoon. It was fine, but I do seem to be taking on a lot for the coming year - feeling slightly concerned in advance...!
Finally unpacked this evening, and attempted to catch up on photos again. Much more still to do!
I have never seen a hibiscus this round or large until I spotted this one at Gulf World in Panama City Beach, Flor.
(Flickr Friends, I am posting four shots a day to try and catch my backlog of images up to the current date. Please, if you have time, take a look at them all.)
De tout l'été le thermomètre n'a jamais atteint les 30°... mais aujourd'hui il flirte avec les 35°!!!!!!
Built in 1936 by Justin Matthews for the Pierce Oil Company. It was quite common durin this period of Americana for oil companies to build service stations with a rather whimsical architectural approach. Pierce was eventually bought out and the station later bacame a DX station. Listed on the National Historic Registry, the service station was in operation from 1936 until 1972. The Round Top Station was widely know in the thirties for having the only public restroom between Searcy and Little Rock Arkansas.

I found these carnivorous plants in a boggy area in Pacific Rim National Park. The leaves are about half the size of a dime.

A recumbant fold is from Bermagui in NSW. The structural geology is complex and amazing here. A recumbant fold is a fold with near-horizontal axial surface (which is the plane that divides the fold in half symmetrically). This region has had at least five deformations I believe and is a fascinating area to investigate structurally.
