Explored! Thank you!
This is a photo from the archives and is certainly not representative of the cloudy, rainy weather here in San Diego today. It is Sunday though, and this is what I imagine to be a perfect Sunday evening. Sitting in the stillness of the ocean as dolphins and pelicans go by, and watching the sun set just before you catch your last wave in. Seems like heaven to me.

BRUNO: "Comic, coffee and toilet paper... What else does bear Eduard need? Chocolate, of course!"
EDUARD:" Is that you, Bruno? You know where the money for Peter is... I can't at the moment because I'm out of toilet paper."
Our family church in the countryside only has a service once a year. Many showed for it.
The Grand Valley Church and Cemetery are situated on land which, as of December 5, 1912, formed part of the Theodore Moe homestead. It is unclear as to exactly when or how the grounds became the property of the Lutheran Church, whether by purchase or as a gift, however, it is known that the Lutheran congregation was organized by Pastor Mons O. Waldahl on July 27, 1911. Also, that the first interment at this site, that of baby Emile Kabrud, took place in 1909; the most recent burial is listed in the Master File. Centennial celebrations for the Church & Cemetery took place on site July 24, 2011, with numerous people in attendance.
The Church, whose name was derived from the valley that runs along the north side of the church yard, was constructed in 1916, with a bell-cast spire on top of the steeple, typical of a number of Lutheran Churches in Sask. The windows and doors reflect the traditional Gothic style favoured by many prairie churches of all denominations. The legal description of the church is “Norwegian Lutheran Church of Canada, Title #102831072.” Prior to construction of the church, summer services were held in the loft of the barn on the Kabrud farm, and during winter services were held in member’s homes. The inside of the church remained unfinished for several years and when it was needed for meetings the inside was decorated with green branches, leaves, and moss. After synod boundaries were established, services were held every three weeks and if a clergy stayed over, accommodations were made available in private homes. By 1959, Viceroy, Verwood & Grand Valley became a three point parish sharing a pastor and the congregation was served from the parsonage in Verwood. Since 1961, the congregation continued meeting for a time at the Anglican Church in Scout Lake, then St. Allan’s Anglican and Wesley United in Rockglen, phasing out the parish about 1994.
Grand Valley Church was never updated with electrical power or water, so for special occasions these were provided by nearby homes, and in winter services were held in homes as it cost too much to heat the church. Though not adorned with fancy chandeliers, stained glass windows, or gold plated altars, the church was a welcoming place to all and there are still occasional weddings, baptisms and funerals held in the Grand Valley Church. At first Norwegian was used for services, but starting in the 1920s this gradually changed to English with the alternating of languages every other Sunday. The Confirmation celebration in 1929 was the last service to be held in Norwegian. Some of the original customs for church services included ladies sitting in the left side pews, while the men sat on the right. Hats were a must for the ladies, and no matter how hot it got on a prairie summer Sunday, the men were not allowed to remove their dress-coats or ties. Alas, due to a declining membership the congregation closed their country church in 1964.
The edifice was declared a Heritage Site on March 5, 1984, but the designation was not formally entered on the title until August 23, 2005 due to an oversight. About 1986/87, the church was completely restored and painted. Trees were also planted and a new all-around fence erected. In 2009, the church roof was re-shingled and in 2011 the outside was again painted along with a portion of the interior. The church and cemetery are well maintained through the support of many generous people who donate time and funds each year.

Whilst at East Midlands Gateway the other week, a pic of 66760 which would work the last ever 4O19 2151 East Midlands Gateway - Southampton Western Docks. This set now forms the new Felixstowe service from East Mids itself. In the background a plane comes into land at East Midlands Airport. (Taken whilst on duty) 6/6/24.
This service station is obviously out of service. Its always sad to see a place like this. Why did they go out of business I wonder. How long ago were these pumps last in service. what kind of toxic waste is left below this building. and the southeastern US seems to have a lot of dilapidated and forgotten buildings. This was in northern Florida.

One of my favorite catches of the 2022 summer vacations at my family up north.
SM42-349, the last of all SM/SU42 locomotives in PolRegio's fleet in the old Przewozy Regionalne's livery, was deployed for around 3 days in August to run one pair of trains on the Ostbahn between Chojnice and Tczew instead of a Pesa Link, which broke down. Here the evening train can be seen leaving Czersk on the way back to Chojnice, which once used to be called Konitz.
This required me to wake up at 4am to take a train from the tricity to the Ostbahn, spend a whole day there and return back home around 1am the next day, nevertheless I find that it was worth every drop of tear and sweat :).

St. Mary's by the Sea in its idyllic location looking out to the Coral Sea (even though it looks like a blizzard) in Port Douglas, tropical Far North Queensland. St Mary's by the Sea. During the day, the church is open to the public but unstaffed and as such the altar is left bare to avoid theft.
"The iconic St Mary's by The Sea chapel is one of the most picturesque churches in the country. However, it's wooden and stained glass interior also holds a vivid history.
According to the Douglas Shire Historical Society, the church was blessed and opened on March 6, 1881 on Grant Street. A temporary chapel, later to become the Presbytery, was built in 1878 at an unknown location.
However, the presbytery and church were completely destroyed by a cyclone on March 16, 1911, which left only seven out of 57 houses in the Port Douglas standing and 100 people homeless.
A new presbytery was soon built on the Grant Street site and the second St Mary's was opened and blessed on August 30, 1914.
Come 1986, St Mary's was the only church left in Port Douglas and in danger of being demolished. This was a time of intense development for the town and many buildings had already been demolished. To the local townspeople, it became imperative that the last remaining church of historical significance should be preserved.
The then Douglas Shire Council provided a site at Dixie Street, bordering Market Park, on the undertaking that the relocation work, restoration and ongoing upkeep and maintenance would never become a burden on the ratepayer.
St Mary's church was finally transported to the present site near the Sugar Wharf on November 11, 1988, beginning a long year of restoration by Port Douglas Restoration Society, originally the "Save the Church" group.
After its transportation to the new site, it was renamed St. Mary's by the Sea and underwent tremendous restoration under the guidance of the Port Douglas Restoration Society, with much fund-raising, generosity and goodwill by the local townspeople, finally becoming the much loved icon that it is today.
St Mary's by the Sea is now one of the oldest buildings in Port Douglas and is a non-denominational place of worship and for the conduct of Port Douglas weddings, christenings, memorial services and funerals.
Set in tranquil tropical gardens and parks, the church is surrounded by breathtaking natural scenery including views of the Coral Sea and the surrounding mountain ranges, which can be viewed from inside the church via the magnificent glass altar window.
Ornate tropical flowers are also featured in the stained glass, with highly polished pews and white painted interior making the ideal Port Douglas venue for weddings with couples from across the globe choosing to exchange their vows at the lovely chapel.
