Metroline Travel TE946 (LK58KHM) on route 317 to Enfield, Little Park Gardens at Enfield on 06/04/2019
Metroline took over route 317 from Arriva London on 30th March 2019 and are currently using Alexander Dennis Enviro400 diesels until the intended Volvo B5LH/MCV Evosetis are released off route 134 when its Optare MetroDecker EV electrics arrive. Once that happens the route will have the lowest PVR of a route to be fully allocated hybrids, with a PVR of 5 (the 116 is currently the lowest with 7)
PLOVER SCAR LIGHTHOUSE WAS DAMAGED BY A COLLISION ON THE 5TH MARCH 2016. THE LIGHTHOUSE WAS HIT WITH A LARGE CARGO SHIP. SCAFFOLDING WAS ERECTED AROUND THE LIGHTHOUSE, AND A TEMPORARY NAVIGATION LIGHT WAS INSTALLED ON THE SCAFFOLDING WHILE THE RESTORATION WORK WAS BEING DONE. IN APRIL 2017 PLOVER SCAR LIGHTHOUSE HAS BEEN FULLY RESTORED AND NOW FULLY OPERATIONAL ONCE AGAIN.
PLOVER SCAR LIGHTHOUSE IS SITUATED ON THE SOUTH EDGE OF MORECAMBE BAY (GRID REFERENCE: SD4254) AT COCKERHAM SANDS AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE RIVER LUNE NEAR GLASSON DOCKS. THIS LIGHTHOUSE WAS BUILT IN 1847 AND WAS THE LOWER LIGHTHOUSE OF TWO. THE SECOND, COCKERHAM SANDS LIGHTHOUSE WAS BUILT FURTHER UP THE BEACH CLOSE TO LIGHTHOUSE COTTAGE, BUT NOW COCKERHAM SANDS LIGHTHOUSE AS SINCE BEEN DEMOLISHED.

from everything so solidly material in this world. Subtract cell phones and reality TV from the equation. Subtract money and work. Subtract busy city streets and honking cars. Enter a world where, for at least a brief moment, you are the only living thing around for miles and miles, and there are no social standards to pin you down. Climb a tree, shout out curses at the top of your lungs and listen to the echo. Sing. Talk to inanimate objects. Name all the birds and flowers you see after people you know in your life. Notice the little things.
Then take a picture.

Almost all the crab spiders I find in the flowers are missing limbs. From what I understand, though, they grow back. I think this is Mecaphesa dubia.

Dear friends,
Here is a pic taken at the same place that my previous one (Seguin's island park in Boulogne Billancourt city).
Happy day!
The wooden Accademia bridge was built in 1932 as a temporary structure to replace a 19th century iron bridge and by popular demand it has stayed.
For at least the second time this week a DRS Class 66 stands in for a poorly Colas example to head the 6J37 Carlisle - Chirk Kronospan log train, on this occasion No.66421.
The ensemble is seen at Greenlands, south of Langwathby on the Settle & Carlisle line.
On loan for its second week is this former East Yorkshire Mercedes P174 NAK covering work while the vehicle beside P224 LKK awaits a new engine fitted.
TEMPORARY MARKINGS for CWHM Lancaster!
Ben Divers notes:
CWHM Lancaster FM213 Hamilton.
The Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum's Lancaster, FM213, has temporarily been repainted to represent KB722 VR-R 'Ropey' of 419 Squadron RCAF.
The original 'Ropey' is considered by many to be one of the most colourful of all RCAF Lancaster paint schemes, having each of its four engine cowlings painted with the "Flying Tiger" style shark mouth markings usually associated with fighter aircraft.
KB722 reputedly earned its Ropey nickname because it allegedly suffered many technical snags, leading to its reputation for being somewhat unreliable.
Nevertheless it completed at least 33 sorties including 419 Squadron's last operation on April 25, 1945, against the enemy defences on Wangerooge, one of the Frisian Islands off Germany.
KB 722 returned to Canada after the war in Europe ended and was being prepared for service in the Far East as part of Tiger Force when the two Atom bombs dropped on Japan abruptly ended the war.
The CWHM Lancaster was repainted in these markings for a weekend of special events which included a night photo-shoot at its Hamilton, Ontario, base.

THIS LANCASTER was originally made in Toronto, during WW II!
When I stepped out of the office for lunch, these plastic bunkers were on the footpath just outside. They are hollow and get filled up with water when in use. I went "oooh ... wow" and proceeded to snap away, while my colleague thought to herself "what an eyesore", until I showed her this beautiful yin-yang line. She saw my fascination then, and commented that I tended to see beauty in everything.

Longing and eager we meet to appease our curiosity, our expectations. We need to abate the loneliness or the longing with a temporary fix.
All them panels up top are in restoration in New Jersey. I guess New Jersey's finally good for something, ha ha ha, no one cares about this burn and I'm sure New Jersey's somewhat OK.
The returning CP-BN transfer pauses for a while in the West 7th neighborhood in St. Paul while traffic clears up along the CP and UP in downtown. The Soo Line's final locomotive on their roster leads the show today, though repainted and renumbered for CP.

She borrowed the dress from my Pongpong Pancake and the wig from my Lati Bat Noa. It's just a temporary look since she was an impulse buy, second hand. But I think she will keep dark hair.
An abandoned and decaying home in Gibara seems like it's being used by someone. I think this coast was really hit hard by hurricane Sandy a few years back, and some of the places just haven't been fixed. But with Cuba it's hard to tell.
Although some crossings were made to be temporary, they last years. In the end it's all good as long as we can cross them.
the scribbled hearts sim is undergoing some changes that we're super excited about :)
in the meantime, we've moved to a temporary location in the sky. please visit us here until further notice: tarte. & Plethora temp stores
thank you for understanding ♥
(big thanks to the lovely Elvira Kytori for lending her time & talents - if you don't know her, you should! check out her flickr to see some of her amazing work & residential rental sims)
Over Melbourne Cup Weekend 2012 the tram tracks were relaid in Riversdale Road, Camberwell; Melbourne Tram Route 70.
Line of temporary fencing leading down hill to Camberwell Junction.
In this photo; the old track and concrete have been removed, the trench is being prepared to receive the conduit, which will later contain tram communication cables etc., prior to installation of the new track.
At this time, I was challenged by PegBecks to ilustrate Andy Goldsworthy's art.
She loves Goldsworthy's work. On her words" His art is temporary - it is created, photographed and then (for many of his works) can be gone."
Because of the low temperatures we’ve been having, (minus 30 degrees Celsius right now ; with the wind chill it feels like minus 44 degrees Celsius), I really struggled with the challenge, the materials used in Andy Goldsworthy's art often include brightly-colored flowers, icicles, leaves, mud, pinecones, snow, stone, twigs, and thorns. He has been quoted as saying, "I think it's incredibly brave to be working with flowers and leaves and petals. But I have to: I can't edit the materials I work with. My remit is to work with nature as a whole." Goldsworthy is generally considered the founder of modern rock balancing. For his ephemeral works, Goldsworthy often uses only his bare hands, teeth, and found tools to prepare and arrange the materials; however, for his permanent sculptures he has also employed the use of machine tools.
Photography plays a crucial role in his art due to its often ephemeral and transient state. According to Goldsworthy, "Each work grows, stays, decays – integral parts of a cycle which the photograph shows at its heights, marking the moment when the work is most alive. There is intensity about a work at its peak that I hope is expressed in the image. Process and decay are implicit.
Goldsworthy produced a commissioned work for the entry courtyard of San Francisco's De Young Museum called "Drawn Stone", which echoes San Francisco's frequent earthquakes and their effects. His installation included a giant crack in the pavement that broke off into smaller cracks, and broken limestone, which could be used for benches. The smaller cracks were made with a hammer adding unpredictability to the work as he created it.
Peg, I would love to be an artist, but I know I am far for it… This is what I was able to come up with.
I'll also double dip it for ODC2 - Making tracks !

While the Hickory Hill Sears liquidation had a very healthy-sized crowd when we visited, the one here at Wolfchase was by far the most crowded liquidation (of any retailer) I've ever been to. Having registers even temporarily unavailable was certainly not a good thing. By comparison, the Jonesboro Sears closing was pretty much snoozeville, while Whitehaven Sears was somewhere in the middle. (Reminder to myself to hunt down some more Whitehaven Sears pics if I can find them) :P

The Alaska Highway travels through some pretty gorgeous but remote and unforgiving country. It has changed a great deal since I first travelled it in the mid 70's, and probably bares little to no resemblance to the original military road that shares its name.
Unfortunately, as the highway has been straightened, improved and paved, the need for many of the lodges that festooned its length and provided much needed respite for those travelling on older versions of the trail has diminished. In some cases, they were abandoned when the road shifted, in other cases, the owners may have died, moved on, or simply given up. This photo was taken on the site of one of those many boarded up and decaying vestiges of the past.
Photo taken with the Olympus OM-D E-M1 and M.Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro hand held. Image processing was performed in DxO PhotoLab 5.3.X and in Nik Analog Efex Pro. I hope you like the result.
