In my 15+ years of retirement I've all but forgotten about Alarms. Some years ago in an Airport as we were traveling my wife found this little Orange "Egg" Alarm. It is just less than 3" high .... about the size of a real egg. Unlike an egg it is sort of like a "Weebles" if you can remember them; it has a weighted bottom with just the hint of a flat spot so it always remains upright and rocks around as you fumble to silence it ... and it has a pleasing tone too! HMM!
After today's events in florida, my visit to Ironwood Hills at this spot just seemed so right. My heart goes out to all the victims and families....

Location - Ironwood Hills
Mind strong, Body strong
Try to find equilibrium
Head straight, screwed on
Been screwed up for too long
I don't want to lean on the waves
I watch the storm evaporate
I think of you in starry skies
I keep you so alive
Let's walk through the fire together
Disappear in the golden sands
It's all in your face
I see you break
It's like the sound of winter
The bleeding love, the silent escape
You've got to hang on to yourself
It's like the sound of winter . . .

Desolation Sound is a deep water sound at the northern end of the Salish Sea and of the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia, Canada.
From the same spot at the same time as the previous shot, looking out to sea. I can still feel the warmth of the sun. Or is it the central heating?
Met these badmen in the Pavilion Gardens one evening, pretty decent sound system on wheels powered by a caravan battery.
'Moveable Type'
A fascinating installation in the lobby of The New York Times Building. Designed by Ben Rubin and Mark Hansen, there are two walls with 560 (280 a wall) small, vacuum fluorescent screens that cull from the newspaper's database snippets of stories, articles, obituaries and the like. It is constantly changing with a tickity-tickity type sound each time a new batch comes in.
Be interesting to know what story the above line came from...
March 1, 2023, Yonkers, NY
A man was arrested today for unlawful discharging of a firearm in public. According to witnesses, at about 8 PM, a man entered the Voluptuous Vixens strip bar on Lockwood Ave brandishing a machine gun type weapon. NYPD Officer Gary Trenton said that apparently, "...all the guys just kept staring all googly-like at the bevy of performers on the stage and simply didn't see the exaggerated arm movements pointing at the guy, nor hear the panicked shouting the dancers were making towards the incoming danger. There eyes were elsewhere, I suppose." Two of the bouncers finally caught on and wrestled him to the floor but, not before a multitude of rounds were sent into the ceiling and at the bar. An interview with one of the patrons, only going by the name Slick, said, "I guess..."
I found this jack-in-the-pulpit on a rock in the yard. i didn't see any on the gorund, just on the rock. Funny.

View down Puget Sound from Richmond Beach, with some of the Olympic Mountains sneaking into the scene.
Some wild Norwegian scenery once more... This old bridge looks like such a peaceful place to be, but the waterfall carrying (cascading?) glacier water from Jostedalsbreen brings the sound of thunder.
Emerald Isle, NC
Several days of westerlies have driven all the water from the west end of the sound, up to Morehead City.
This one's from a visit to the Crypt in Winchester Cathedral. The sculpture (Sound ll) is by Antony Gormley, the crypt floods regularly hence the reflections. I've wanted to see this for a long time, what a fantastic place!
Thanks for your time
