Hard to believe it's been a decade since I shot this. Looking back, I'm definitely a little disappointed I didn't make the 25-minute trip over here from Ames a few more weekends before the UP built the new structure beside it. I'll just be happy with what I got because many never got a chance to shoot real CNW on the quintessential CNW bridge. Here we've got 2 of the last 3 leading an MPRNP over the Kate Shelley High Bridge between Boone and Ogden.
Tiny hair-like structures of salt grow and combine to form the salt flats at Badwater in Death Valley. Here is a wider view of the same area showing how the salt combines to form geometric pools.

A utility pole that uses the minifigure zip line handles so that string can be fed through to link multiple poles together. Would work well for layouts I think. It's also made to be pretty sturdy. Free Instructions here: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-50464/MasterBuilderKTC/utility-p...
You’re looking at a 1938 Cadillac 75 2-Door Convertible which just about didn’t make it off the drawing boards, as far as this composite goes. Both, the picture of the large barn-like structure in the background and the picture of this ’38 Caddy were recorded at the Grand Experience classic auto show at the Gilmore Museum in 2014 ……….but at different times, different locations and under slightly different lighting condition. The “time and place” posed no particular problem but the lighting conditions were the challenge which, quite frankly, I believe I have not fully overcome. Shadow, shadow……everywhere a shadow,
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you do the shadow?
I told myself I would never attempt to place a car into a mixed lighting area (part sunlight, part in shadow) but as you see I did and although I attempted using about fifty different mixed shadow effects (as reflected on a portion of the car’s body by the tree on the far right), nothing looked right or believable. At somewhere around fifty, I threw up my hands and said - well, you don’t really want to hear what I said so let’s just say, I was at my wits end. I am sure if one looks at this scene critically, one will spot the inconsistencies, so don’t look at this scene critically. Just squint your eyes and imagine that everything in the picture is hunky-dory.
I believe the following, which was obtained from the conceptcarz web site pertains to ‘this particular car’ but without having the chassis number, I can’t be positive. Here is what conceptcarz/Daniel Vaughn writes I believe about, this car.
Coachwork: Fleetwood
Chassis Num: 3271250
High bid of $65,000 at 2008 RM Sothebys. (did not sell)
For 1938, Cadillac moved the headlamps into the front fenders for the up-market Series 65 and Fleetwood Series 75 models. The bodies became more curvaceous than that of the prior models, particularly from the rear. Optional dual sidemounts covers were hinged to the fenders. Quarter windows were sliding rather than hinged construction. Technical innovations for 1938 included column shift, a transverse muffler just behind the fuel tank, new wheels, a hypoid rear axle, horns hidden behind the grille, and a Synchro-Flex flywheel.
The Series 75 was given an increase in compression which lifted horsepower to 140. * Sporty looking but certainly not a speed demon.
This particular example wears an older restoration and painted in a soft yellow color. There are wide whitewall tires, a tan cloth top and refinished chrome accents. The interior upholstery is dark brown leather, and the dashboard is dark chocolate brown.
In 2008 this 1938 Cadillac Series 75 Convertible Coupe was brought to RM Auctions 'Vintage Motor Cars of Meadow Brook' where it was estimated to sell for $75,000-$100,000. A high bid of $65,000 failed to satisfy the reserve and the car was left unsold.

PS: I know who the current owner is and where he lives but I would rather not say under this format. Actually, it’s immaterial since I know that I don’t! (own it, that is ;)
Hope ya’all enjoy…………………..
A few miles to the east of RAF Woodvale is this structure on the open fields of Downholland Moss between Southport and Liverpool. It is a dummy light site dating from the Second World War. The platform on the end of the structure housed a large spotlight which was shone around the adjoining fields to mimic the taxi-ing and take off of airplanes. The generators were housed in the rear of the structure and there was a blast wall a the bottom of the steps on the right. Now it is gently decaying, probably housing the local wildlife

Record players and radios were rare a century ago so residents of Vancouver used to soak up music at bandstands.
The 100-year-old Haywood Bandstand, the last of such structures in the city, continues the tradition with a Music in the Park series in the West End.
One World Trade Center (also known as 1 World Trade Center, 1 WTC or Freedom Tower) is the main building of the rebuilt World Trade Center complex in Lower Manhattan, New York City. It is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, and the sixth-tallest in the world. The supertall structure has the same name as the North Tower of the original World Trade Center, which was destroyed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The new skyscraper stands on the northwest corner of the 16-acre (6.5 ha) World Trade Center site, on the site of the original 6 World Trade Center. The building is bounded by West Street to the west, Vesey Street to the north, Fulton Street to the south, and Washington Street to the east. (borrowed from Wikipedia)
