sometimes i experiment with cropping my photos into squares; sometimes the result pleases me. i love these neon signs, and really loving how this astia sim looks at night. i’m always trying to catch the smokers out on a break from their machines, but they’re a paranoid lot.
We drove across the spine of Vancouver Island during a torrential downpour. These small waterfalls are not ordinarily present - they appear to be coming out of the rock, but are likely runoff from all the rain on the mountain. Interesting trip, but with several hydroplaning opportunities.
Just as my tulips were starting to bloom, three days of winter weather made them close up shop ...

This is a date stamp from the late 1980's. In about eight decades from now, it'll be useful again!
Deep inside the silence, staring out upon the sea
The waves washing over half forgotten memories
Rising and falling dying down within me
All the waves washing over all that hurts inside of me
...so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door...

On her way out to work, my daughter in Colorado heard a not unfamilar tapping at her chamber door, which, upon opening, confirmed the presence of this impressive guy.

This is part of a temporary allocation while some single deckers go on loan to BK.
J 666 steps up to assist with IC 6203 in helper service over Byron Hill while the 6204 is cared for by the guys at Shops. Always cool to what fills the void when one of the regulars is down for a 92 or whatever sidelines them for the short period of time.
