Grand Portage State Park is located at the northeastern tip of Minnesota on the Canada–United States border. Its 120-foot High Falls is the tallest waterfall in the state and has been an icon of the area of centuries. The falls and rapids that proceed it were obstacles that led the voyageurs and fur traders of the 1700s to craft the area's name Git-che-O-ni-ga-ming (Ojibwe) or Grand Portage (French). In order to connect heavily-used trade routes, these men had to traverse nine miles around the falls from the Pigeon River to Lake Superior.

Clear Lake - Iowa
Not much action on the beach today! Temps cool in the mid fifties, and strong sustained winds at thirty-five plus mph. We didn't stay very long either, but the whitecaps on this side of the lake were amazing!
Spring is having a tough start in north central Iowa. Come June, this whole area will be filled with parents, pipsqueaks and poodles!

Late day light in the trees along the bank of the river. Took this capture from out in the middle of the river.
This majestic Gothic Revival schoolhouse was designed and built by W.W. Eldridge in 1889. It served the community until 1986 when the school was relocated to a modern building. Renovations were carried out and it was converted into Council Chambers until the Town Council was amalgamated with the larger Northern Midlands Council in 1993.
But the building still serves the community as a tourism information hub, and importantly continues to house Evandale's valuable historical archival material.

Union Pacific's Sharp, Utah - Valmy, Nevada coal train is making good time, rolling along State Street on the Provo Subdivision between American Fork and Lehi, Utah the afternoon of Nov. 3, 1985. The open fields that bordered the track are all gone now. In fact, a Costco big box store occupies this plot of land today. Time marches on, like it or not!
Trying to remember those warmer days ... was around 10 degrees F this morning heading to work here in Maryland ...
About to roll over the state line into Colorado, BNSF's McCook - Akron road switcher leans into a sweeping curve as they head west.
Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area is a state park in Pacific City, Oregon, United States. Cape Kiwanda is on the Three Capes Scenic Route, which includes Cape Meares and Cape Lookout. Hiking to the top of Cape Kiwanda allows views of Nestucca Bay to the south and Cape Lookout to the north.
A sea stack, named Chief Kiawanda Rock (note different spelling than Cape Kiwanda) is located 1⁄2 mile southwest of the cape. It is one of three features along the Oregon Coast that are called "Haystack Rock," though the one in Cannon Beach is more widely known.
Desde las alturas.
EL HOTEL.

Y para terminar, decirle que todas nuestras habitaciones cuentan con mayordomo personal las veinticuatro horas del día a su plena disposición.
-¿Y no podríamos quitar lo del mayordomo?
Se lo digo porque soy más de pueblo que las amapolas y si se enteran por aquí que voy a hoteles con mayordomo se están “ descojonando “ un año entero y no podré salir de casa en una buena temporada.
-Creo señor que no estamos hablando el mismo idioma, nosotros lo que vendemos son sueños, instantes únicos, irrepetibles y singulares.
-Vale, vale, era una broma, me deja usted anonadado, ya veo que sabe vender bien el producto. Y llegados a este punto creo que ya solo nos queda hablar del precio final de esos sueños tan singulares.
Y me dijo la cantidad……y me quedé sin palabras.
-¿Sigue usted ahí? dijo una voz desde el otro lado del teléfono.
-Si, sí, sigo aquí. El caso es que tengo que consultarlo con mi suegra que en definitiva es la que paga las vacaciones ¡ le hace tanta ilusión¡
A ver cómo le cuento lo de los djs. Es que a mi suegra le sacas de dos gardenias para ti y clavelitos, clavelitos de mi corazón y a la pobre se le alborotan las neuronas.
Lo consulto y le llamo lo antes posible, se lo prometo.
-Pero dese prisa porque ya tenemos casi todas las fechas cerradas.
-Lo tendré muy en cuenta. Ha sido un placer hablar con usted.
-Lo mismo digo caballero.
-Adiós.
-Adiós.

When it comes to independent cinema the State Theatre in North Hobart stands alone in Tasmania. Only the art deco Star in Launceston is comparable. www.flickr.com/photos/luminosity7/49077130843/in/album-72...
Like the post office across the street it opened in 1913 as the North Hobart Picture Palace showing silent movies. The Spanish flu of 1918 and competition from theatres closer to the city centre forced it to close in 1920. It reopened in 1935 and has shown films ever since under a number of different guises.
Since 2019 it has been owned by the Reading Cinemas chain. The key to its success today is that it operates 11 screens in small rooms, allowing for a wide range of movies to be shown at once. The State also operates a bookshop with an extensive range of books about the movies.
I keep seeing stories about Gunlock State Park and the beautiful falls. I love them so much! When you go, don’t forget to visit the reservoir itself. There’s a newly improved campground and great places to go kayaking, paddle boarding or fishing. It’s a great way to spend the day or the weekend. And whatever you do this Memorial Day weekend, have a great one! Please be safe out there!
