A combo trail and forest shot, I love the light in this little scene near the Plover River. Fall is so great. Well, until stick season.
The SeaGull Restaurant & Gift Shop (less than 100 yards from Pemaquid Light), 3119 Bristol Rd, New Harbor, Maine
Like so many businesses during the "lockdown", the SeaGull Resturant was "Temporarily Closed".
And now it seems so much more than that.
Thank you, Xi Jinping
Go Ahead have assumed the long and winding 366 from Stagecoach, now operated from River Road.
The associated new electrics aren’t ready, so the recently displaced SE268-287 batch (plus SEN35) have been moved over to start the contract.
I never rode a few of these in their previous employment at Merton, SE278 here being one such example.
It’s seen arriving at the Redbridge Library stop in Ilford.
A solid diesel bash apart from the EH at the start. 19.6.23.

Today I chased the temporary steel train that runs from Tata Steel in Beverwijk to the TMA terminal in the Amsterdam harbor in the Houtrakpolder.
Rail Force One 683 is pushing 1831 and the steel train to the right track on the TMA terminal.

Seen on Trail to the top of Multnomah Falls. I thought I'd better post it before snow was too distant of a memory.
Thanks very much for viewing. Favs & meaningful comments are really appreciated and reciprocated.

This delightful little coach was spotted in the temporary car park next to Ropley Station, home of the Watercress/Mid-Hants preserved railway in May 2014. Bedford CFL / Plaxton Mini Supreme C17F CNR274T 'Bubbles' was there among hundreds of cars whose owners had taken the opportunity to park for a fiver then catch a free train ride to nearby Alresford for the annual Watercress Festival. It was an extremely popular thing to do with overcrowded trains departing every 20 minutes throughout the day. One steam-hauled, one diesel-hauled, and a 'Thumper' worked the service.

This week's theme was: O is for Optician
I need to make an appointment with the optician because the arm on my glasses had snapped. I've managed a temporary repair, so it's not urgent, but I will have to do it before too long.
The text in pencil is temporary. Need to think more about the text and placement, but wanted to get this posted incase I can't get to this right away. I am thinking to add the five heart monitor leads/color wires, hope to give a sense of how tangled up I felt. Hope to work on this more.

In February 1945 it was the temporary residence for Winston Churchill and the British delegation.
Sometimes God holds you back temporarily until the road is safe and clear to continue, be thankful for the stall...
The bus stands on The Broadway have been dug up, so buses from the east are having to drop off at Locke Way stop 7 if they've got layover to take before their next departure.
They seem to park there if there's room, but if it's full, then they need to go round to Duke Street. If that's full, then they need to go back out, and down Stanley Road and up Chertsey Road to the lower half of Duke Street, where the car parking has been suspended to create more bus parking.
That's demonstrated by Arriva 4209 (YJ61 CJV), which is in the suspended-car-parking lower half of Duke Street, having come in on a 436 and found Abellios already occupying Locke Way.
The amusing part of all these arrangements is that, with the roadworks and fencing, the right turn from Duke Street back onto The Broadway to get to the pick up stands is not actually possible to do in a bus without driving over the pavement...
...especially so in a Versa, the right hand lock of which is not their strong point.

Remodeling the living room means no big sound system. So I figured I might as well set up my headphones gear in the meantime. (and I see a couple spots I missed with the paint..)
Art is an effort to turn something normal or plain to something interesting or magical, something insignificant to something of awareness.
Science is the undeniably fact of what works and what not. The technical limitations, underlying concepts and the real differences among the materials, build quality and durability of the quality level.
The interplay of the two results in low probability of success, hence deriving great amount of surprise and satisfaction upon achievement. Hopefully with time and efforts, skills and knowledge can be greatly enhanced, applied and progressed in upward cycles.
A second shot at a christmas bulb filled with layers of paint. This one has a shorter delay between flashes.

Temporary Visitor. Migrating through...seen at Cedar Lake. Well out in the middle of the lake, not nearly enough lens mounted for a good capture, so this merely documents the visit.
another lovely lady<3, at first I wanted the normal skin then after 2 weeks I decided to get the tan :D I think her faceup little dark but look great with her tan.
the eyes I gave is temporary, she's wearing 14mm and she's looking very similar to my Dianne (I love Celine with smaller eyes where the white show more, but I think I will get her some 16mm eyes). I don't think she will be the older verson of Dianne (for now)..
also I haven't decided what to call her, I thought of the name Verona or Vivienne (something with V) ;D

yes, i slipped on invisible sidewalk ice yesterday! this temporary plaster cast will be replaced in five day's time with a fibreglass one, if all goes well.
Not sure why I am always drawn towards icicles, lol. Found these ones on 4 January 2013, when four of us took part in the annual Audubon Horseshoe Canyon/Drumheller Christmas Bird Count.
I've got to dash and get ready for a bird walk this morning - will tell you about my "adventure" from yesterday when I get back. A most unwanted adventure!
Later: yesterday, I made myself drive quite a way east of Calgary for the very first time. Those who know me, know that I have battled a driving phobia most of my life. The last few years, I have longed to be able to drive eastwards, to see if I could find a Snowy Owl. So, finally, yesterday was THE day! I had gone to Google Maps, enlarged and printed 12 pages of maps and taped them together, so I was quite well prepared. The night before, I had tried to find out how far Lyalta was from Calgary, and on one website, there was a photo of a rather nice barn. Decided to make that my first destination point and I was successful. Driving a few roads near Lyalta, I thought I would try one last road before heading back towards Calgary. Well, guess who got herself stuck in snow and took an hour and a half to try and dig herself out in vain and had to go to the nearest farm to ask for help!!!!! My Google Maps maps said that this particular backroad went straight through - but it sure didn't! The farmer said that someone else had done it, when testing out his new vehicle, and had ended up plunging into the creek ahead! Thank goodness I didn't get that far along! I felt SO bad asking this elderly man for help. In fact, when I got to his farm, no one answered the door, but just as I was leaving (feeling sick to the stomach, especially as I have no cell phone), he called out to me from across the farmyard. I asked him if there was a garage in Lyalta that would be able to come and get me out, but he said he would try to dig me out. I am so thankful to this man! Needless to say, I thought I'd better stick to the paved roads for the rest of my time out there! Not a single Snowy Owl, of course. Felt totally shattered when I got home, and still today, ha. However, I did it! It might be the very last time I ever try it, but I did it.
Anyone else finding Flickr is rather weird today? It's almost as if it has "stuck" and nothing is happening : )
