Retiring hogger JW heads under the Ackerville 164 bridge one last time while a CN employee. While I never met him before, it was still cool to be a part of his last day, and not too shabby power either!
So many tag games...so little time!!
Anyway, here's my Flickr year.
Despite having to build a brand new account...it was a pretty good one :)
Zachary, his beloved Lacrosse Ball temporarily...
Our Daily Challenge - Feb 11, 2016 - "Abandoned"
..., looks...
Daily Dog Challenge 1564. "Relaxed"
... and ready for a nap.
Sometimes a shoot surprises you.
I fully expected to choose a Henry Picture today - as Zachary doesn't usually "do" Relaxed, but my boy surprised me today and IMHO nailed it.
Yes, I could quibble about his semi-pricked ears and open eyes, but I won't.
For Zachary during a photo shoot, this is about as relaxed as it's ever going to get.

Autumn is outside the window in this shot from housing at the Moffat Tunnel. I included the colors outside the window for this shot. When it gets difficult to put in a decent day's work, it's time to reboot. Maybe the mountain pack rats got to his boots while he was sleeping. Have you seen the size of the pack rats up here at the divide? A military retinue posted atop Pikes Peak in the past noted the size of the rats that carried pieces of concrete away! Sheesh! I've been walkin' on the railroad; Just to pass the time away. All while waiting for the horn to blow. I love the autumn colors of the grasses and shrubs outside. Winter's on the way, it's time to reglaze!
This is in a company house near the Moffat Tunnel. eDDie and I rifled through some of the old D&RGW housing. I stuck my found boot in several windows. The view from the missing window shouts the season. The work force that operated the station - agents, telegraphers, electricians, curtain operators and other maintenance workers for the East Portal of the Moffat Tunnel had short walks to work and that hardly accounts for the wear on this boot. Maybe they walked all the way to the "Crossroads" and back. This housing is as tenuous as this boot. Boy, I bet these houses were dandy spots to sleep when the D&RGW Mallets were pounding their way up grade! Have you seen the size of the low pressure cylinders on the fronts of those Mallets? This shows the color on our second trip up to the Moffat.

.......................
يبدأ الزمن ببدء الحياة ..
قيدا غير مرئي يتنفس بولادة الشمس .. ثم يمضي بلا توقف .. بمجرد ملازمة الأرض قسريا لها ..
دوران يومي مقلق يجعلنا نرى شمسا تدور بشكل وهمي من حولنا .. من شرقها إلى غربها ..
في الوقت الذي ندور فيه نحن من حولها ..
كي نصبح نحن الذين نحرك دولاب الزمن
أو .. نحن الذين نتحرك معه كفئران في عجلات .. نخترع الساعات و نمشي وفق فتافيتها التي تتناولنا يوميا ... حتى ننتهي .. فنفنى .. فننتقل .
.........
للزمن محددان أساسيان .. الشمس و الموت .
الشمس تعطيه تعريفه الفيزيائي الواضح .. بدورانها تتحدد القيم و التفاصيل الدقيقة .. و بتحديدها تنكشف كل عوامل تعريف المسافة و السرعة ..
أما الموت فيمنح الزمن قيمته الفلسفية .. بحدوثه يتم الانتقال من المفهوم الزمني إلى المفهوم اللازمني .. و السفر من المنطقة المقيدة اللاأبدية إلى الفراغ الأبدي الأزلي الذي لا يحتاج إلى تحديد فيزيائي يعرف المفهوم الزمني و لا يضطر إلى ربط السرعة و المسافة ..
حيث تصبح المسافة اتساعا .. و السرعة انتقالا .. و الزمن هو مجرد لا شيء ..
.............
يبدأ الزمن في لحظة ما .. و لن ينتهي إلا في أجله المعلوم بالنسبة إلى خالقه فقط
..........
الزمن لا ينتظر ... لا يرتبط .. لا يتعاطف .. و لا يرحم .. لكنه يركض بخطى ثابتة و مزعجة .. لا تتنازل عن سرعتها المحددة رغم ضخامة الأحداث و اضطراب الكوكب ..
و من الممكن جدا أن يمضي الزمن بعيدا عن مفهوم العدالة ..
..........
كل شيء خاضع للمفهوم الزمني هو فان حتما .
و كل ما مر الزمن من فوقه أو من تحته أو من خلاله .. خاضع للتغير و التبدل .. و ثباته هو أمر معدوم .
..........
الزمن وهم اخترعَنا فاخترعْناه ...
اخْتُرِعَ لنا فربطناه حول رقابنا ..
و اخترعْنا تفاصيله .. فقيدَنا ..
..........
كل ما قيد بزمن .. جُهِّزَ ليصبح تربة للامتحان .. و رهنا بحسن إدارة الوقت و حسن العمل
..........
ينتهي الزمن بإيعاز غريب .. يقلب كل المفاهيم الزمنية و يسخر من ثبات اتجاه العقارب ..
تتغير فكرة الدوران الثابتة .. و تعكس الأرض دورانها .. و تجد الشمس _ محدد الزمن الأول_ نفسها لأول مرة في مفهوم جديد فوق الأرض ..
تظهر من غربها الذي حدده لها خالقها منذ بداية الكون .. فتعكس كل الترتيب الزمني الأرضي ..
و يصبح الغرب شرقا .. و يمسي الشرق غربا
و إذ ذاك سيصبح كل سكان الغرب دفعة واحدة ... هم الشرقيون ..
و سيمسي كل سكان الشرق .. ببساطة ... هم الغربيون ..
..........
سينتهي الزمن في يوم ما ..
سيتوقف .. و سيصبح العالم أبديا ..
و العالم الأبدي لا قيود تحد مروره .. إذ لا شعور فيه بمطرقة لحظية تتدخل فيها الثواني و يحكمها قيد التراكم الزمني .
العالم الأبدي لا حاجة فيه للموت _ محدد الزمن الثاني _ إذ لا حاجة فيه للانتقال ..
من دخل منظومة الأبدية .. لن يعود مرة أخرى للانتقال إلى مفهوم الفناء ..
و لن يعود خاضعا إلى المفهوم الزمني ..
و لا مربوطا بفتافيت الوقت ..
و لا مقيـــــــــــدا ..
بعجـــــــلات الزمــــــن .

It only took waiting three hours for the weather to cooperate, and it finally pulled through in the nick of time.
Sugar Express’ “Sugar Eggspress” final run would be the 4 PM train out of Clewiston, departing on-time with a moderately full train. Following a successful catch at the Sugarland Canal trestle, a hectic 4.1 mile drive would ensue, driving along unmarked dirt roads through private cane fields, dodging loose rocks and an unexpected closed gate [a story me and Richard will tell until the end of time].
I would arrive to the spot at Liberty Point with no less than 3 minutes to spare, the 148’s CB&Q 5 chime audible from about a mile away. With the train clear of the Shawnee cane loadout to the south, the engineer opens up the throttle through the Liberty Point curve to continue their run to Moore Haven at track speed, 40 MPH. A gap between clouds finally allowed the sun to shine down on the Class 141 Pacific as it sweeped around the curve headed west.

Time once again to roll the clocks forward. People trend to grumble about losing an hour of sleep, but my body seems to adapt quickly to the spring clock change. I awaken earlier and feel more energized during the day. Everything seems to happen at a faster pace; the work day seems to fly by. Best of all is it generally marks the end of driving home in the dark. I figure my odds of striking a deer decrease dramatically. The time change always brings renewed calls for leaving the clocks set on a single time zone all year long. The problem with that is people want to lock in on standard time. Not me; I love having light in the sky until nearly 10 pm in the summer. I say if we do go to a single time zone, let's make it daylight saving time!

Sorry, couldn't resist that sublime Nietzsche quote for a title, it was the first thing that came to mind when I converted this image to B/W. The huge gaping maw under the cloud became so much more apparent than it had been in the colour version, more sinister, too, especially at the time when it was being lit up from within by cloud hidden lightning! (Fortuitously, the sea darkened up leaving only the white horses to now appear as stars, giving the impression – to my eyes – that the storm is floating above the vastness of space)
Porthmeor beach always seems to present me with a thunderstorm to shoot each year. Fortunately, this monster of a storm was several miles out to sea off Porthmeor beach, sailing slowly and rather omniously by from left to right, travelling up the Bristol Channel to make landfall in England. Jay and I hadn't noticed it at first (seriously!), we'd been preoccupied wandering around on the beach, merrily shooting away at all and sundry until I happened to turn to see how the surf was and saw that beastie instead. Aye, there were many "Oh, wows!", "Oh, yeahs!" and "What the…!" from both of us! Suitably intimidated – as you would be having a storm like that staring and looming right back at you – I attached my Polariser and cranked it up to 11, and with the sun being at the best angle for the polariser to have maximum effect, the intense blue sky darkened dramatically. I took several shots at varying exposures to cover my tonal bases – no way was I going to mess up an opportunity like this one and blow out my highlights! (the middle shot turned out to be the best)
I love thunderstorms, always have done since I was knee high to a tripod. I'll go out in them at any opportunity, I love standing under them to look up and watch the swirling chaos of the clouds while they light up inside like some Close Encounters of a Natural Kind movie! But they're just as impressive, if not more so, when sailing past and you can see lightning striking down and vast curtains of rain being dragged behind the anvil headed monster… Bliss!
