Well here’s the end of 2025 but no top 9,12,20 images from me. I haven’t lost a dog this year, contrary to the two previous years, in fact we gained one, I’ve also stayed clear of hindering health issues so another plus for the year. Photography on the other hand has been pretty poor in images taken and motivation. My photography is inspired by lonely natural surroundings, a missing vibe close to home but travelling is getting harder and harder the older I get. Maybe it’s because I haven’t had to fight to get fit this year, it’s so easy to make lame excuses, but I’m now in my seventieth year, so should I be so hard on myself? Next year I also lose my two print sale outlets, The Word in South Shields has closed its shop for floor renovation and may not reopen and The Glass centre in Sunderland closes in July 2026, very shortsighted for the area. Since retiring I’ve sold over 600 hundred mounted and framed photography prints at these venues and although I’ve enjoyed the process of printing and mounting my work I have no appetite to find other places to sell my work and feel it’s come at the right juncture in my life to wrap it up. Maybe I’ll knock up a better online presence or maybe not, I’ve probably only made half a dozen sale via online in the same period so it’s not really worth a Square-space subscription. I now need to look for a 2025 photo to accompany this roundup and to wish everybody who takes time to look at my photographs and howls at the moon a very happy new year and to hope for world peace, do miracles happen?
Busy new parents!! These guys have been frequenting the backyard daily for weeks now but today brought along a few extras - 22 to be exact!!! They're going to be busy. Hopefully they have a good survival rate this year. The chicks are so tiny and adorable. Will get a video soon to post.
Yesterdays dirt road adventure wouldn't have been too exciting If we hadn't stumble upon the roundup.

We were getting ready to help some friends work cattle one early morning and this storm came up and poured rain, making it a sloppy mess. Good times in the mud....
CN L536 cruises down the old IC with noodle DC power. The trailing UP motors are on lease to the CN while some of their smaller power is out for upgrade. Here they're being towed to Kirk (or Markham?) for activation.
This Bull elk was interested in two things; mating and keeping his harem together. This cow strayed too far and was chased back to the harem.
Found in small city in Montana this old crane looked to be driven by steam or diesel. There was no water tank or boiler, there were certainly many gauges and piping to indicate a possible steam - but as one pointed out. Most likely diesel.

We always have the rhino roundup late in the fall. Sometimes a few get missed, but they come up to the house later for a hand-out.
The last full day of the Victorian Iron Horse Roundup at the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad featured several historic locomotives operating out of the Chama, New Mexico, terminal. The daily excursion to Osier was handled by K-36 No. 487. Locomotives 425 and “Glenbrook” operated around the yard during the morning and afternoon; Denver & Rio Grande 4-6-0 No. 168 was in the shop after suffering a mechanical issue the previous day and the 4-4-0 “Eureka” was not under steam after a blower line issue arose during the trip to Cumbres Pass on Saturday. The highlight of the day was the doubleheader nighttime excursion with locomotives 168 and 425 that departed around 10:00 PM for an overnight run from Chama to Antonito. This was the first time overnight accommodations had been offered on the narrow gauge (in an authentic D&RG tourist sleeper) in over a century.
A selection of the builds from 2014 with which I was the happiest.
For 2015 I really need to GET SORTED. I am drowing in bags and piles of "general population", debris from the builds above, and it's actually a frightening prospect to enter my chaotic LEGO area... I will do it though.
I also realise I did not do a roundup for 2013, which was a much more prolific year than 2014 - going to have to correct that in the next day or so.
