Right next to the "Whiskey Bone's Roadhouse" was this rock quarry that I thought looked pretty cool... thought it was interesting that you could see the moon at 3:00 in the afternoon.
This 1973 Volkswagen Thing has had quite a bit done to it. We had it stripped down to bare metal and Epoxy primed for rust protection. Then we began the rust repair there were a lot of panels that need small patches, the fenders were repaired, new floor pans were installed and the front nose panel was replaced. Mechanical and electrical systems were gone through and repaired to get the car back up and running. A new top and interior will be next.

Now Covid is relegated to being a bad historical joke, how much did your work change because of or as a result of Covid? Or not at all?
Flickr is the bomb-diggity. I've had a professional Flickr account for going on a year. I love that I can post photos, organize them and share them with the world and my friends or just for myself based on how public I make a photo...
I have been having some problems embedding a photo from Flickr into this post. Which has made this post take longer to do than I'd like. Grrr. The frustrations of modern technology.
But I think I have it working now.

Moulin Rouge! (Australian–American musical romantic drama film, 2001) - Δεν είναι μιούζικαλ· είναι μιά Ωδή στην ποίηση και την αγάπη!
“The greatest thing You'll ever learn Is just to love And be loved In return”
Αφιερωμένο στα δυό κορίτσια της ζωής μου <3
Πριν λίγο είδα -για μιά ακόμα φορά και κάθε φορά ανακαλύπτω και κάτι καινούργιο- το πολυβραβευμένο “Moulin Rouge” (2001) μιά ταινία/ιστορία, σε σκηνοθεσία Baz Luhrman, που περικλείει κάποια από τα πιό δυνατά συναισθήματα που έχω νιώσει μέχρι σήμερα και έχει μιά ξεχωριστική θέση στην καρδιά μου· η δε εκπληκτική σκηνή του “El Tango de Roxanne” με τα δυνατά/ποιητικά λόγια εισαγωγής στο remix του τραγουδιού “Roxanne” των Police με την μουσική του "Tanguera" του Mariano Mores, με έχει σημαδέψει για πάντα.
Το Moulin Rouge μας παρουσιάζει μια ιστορία αγάπης που εξελίσσεται μέσα σε έναν χορευτικό θίασο στο Παρίσι του 1900. Χρώματα, πληθωρικά σκηνικά, ταξίδι σε ένα περιβάλλον γεμάτο χορό, τραγούδι και πανδαισία συγκίνησης και συναισθημάτων. Με την πληθώρα διασκευών τραγουδιών της δεκαετίας των ’80s -που ερμηνεύονται από την εκπληκτική Nicole Kidman, τον πολύ καλό Ewan McGregor και τους λοιπούς πρωταγωνιστές- βυθιζόμαστε σε έναν κόσμο πάθους, δημιουργίας, έρωτα at first sight και εν τέλει απελευθέρωσης συνυφασμένης/ταυτισμένης με την αληθινή αγάπη. Είναι μια ταινία που σε κρατάει μέχρι το τέλος και σε κάνει να θες να μην τελειώσει. .
“Βρισκόμαστε το 1899 στο Παρίσι. Ο Christian ειναι ποιητής που πιστεύει στην ελευθερία, στην αλήθεια, στην ομορφιά και στον έρωτα. Γεγονός είναι όμως ότι δεν έχει γνωρίσει ως τώρα τον έρωτα. Τον γνωρίζει για πρώτη φορά στο πρόσωπο της Satin. Το Moulin Rouge ειναι από τα πιο φανταχτερά καμπαρέ και η Satin μια πανέμορφη χορεύτρια η οποία έχει σαγηνέψει και τον δούκα. Όνειρό της είναι να γίνει ηθοποιός. Πρόκειται να γυρίσουν παράσταση στην οποία θα την γράψει ο Christian, θα παίξει η Satin και θα την χρηματοδοτήσει ο δούκας υπο έναν όρο! Η Satin θα είναι μόνο δικιά του και θα σκοτώσει τον Christian αν βρεθεί εμπόδιο στον δρόμο τους! Παράλληλα είναι άρρωστη... Η Satin για να προστατέψει τον αγαπημένο της τον διώχνει μακριά της...”

Επιλέγω και σας παρουσιάζω τα λόγια που ακούγονται στην αρχή και στο τέλος της ταινίας
• [Toulouse]
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far
Over land and sea
A little shy
And sad of eye
But very wise
Was he
And then one day
A magic day
He passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved
In return

The Moulin Rouge.
A nightclub...
...a dance hall and a bordello...
...ruled over by Harold Zidler.
A kingdom of nighttime pleasures...
...where the rich and powerful played with...
...the young and beautiful creatures of the underworld.
The most beautiful of all these...
...was the woman who I loved.
Satine.
A courtesan, she sold her love to men.
They called her "The Sparkling Diamond."
And she was the star...
...of the Moulin Rouge.
The woman I loved...
...is...
...dead.
I first came to Paris...
...one year ago.
lt was 1899, the Summer of Love.
I knew nothing of the Moulin Rouge, Harold Zidler or Satine.
The world had been swept up in a Bohemian revolution, and l had...
...travelled from London to be a part of it.
On the hill near Paris was the village of Montmartre.
It was not, as my father said
- A village of sin. -
but the center of the Bohemian world.
Musicians, painters, writers.
They were known as the Children of the Revolution.
Yes. I had come to live a penniless existence.
I had come to...
...write about truth, beauty,
freedom...
...and that which l believed in
above all things: love.
There was only one problem.
I'd never been in love.
• [Satine]
I'm sorry, Christian.
I'm dying.
I'm so sorry.
I'm cold. I'm cold.
Hold me.
I love you.
You've got to go on, Christian.
You've got so much to give.
Tell our story, Christian.
Promise me.
That way...
...I'll always be with you.
• [Christian]
There was
A boy
A very strange
Enchanted
Boy
Days turned into weeks.
Weeks turned into months.
And then, one not-so-very-special day...
...l went to my typewriter,
I sat down...
...and I wrote our story.
A story about a time...
...a story about a place...
...a story about the people.
But above all things...
...a story about love.
A love that will live forever.
The...
... end.

The ideas, the ingenuity, the engineering and attention to detail is the thing that amazes me when looking at the various outfits. However, it does not finish there, the make - up and lenses used to acheive each look is outstanding. Even better still they are a lovely couple. and a pleasure to talk to.
