The Union Chain Bridge across the River Tweed near Horncliffe, Scotland is on the left and England on the right.
Seen from my lunch spot after cycling there (72 miles round trip) on a rather hot day (we did have one or two, but 24/25C not 34/35C as experienced further south). The previous upload (below) 'Cuthbert's Cheviot View' was taken on my way back.
Thanks to Blondie for the title nudge.

I'm now enjoying a bit of a YouTube Blondie-fest 😊😊😊,
I will have to get out my Parallel Lines CD next!
This scene was taken in Union Point Park in New Bern, NC. The city aldermen recently voted to look into commercial development of parts of this park. In the future, this view could be blocked by a hotel.

Thanks again to www.flickr.com/photos/18378305@N00/ for allowing me to use his camera during my visit to Toronto. Good man 🙏
Union Canal connects Edinburgh and Falkirk, it is one of my favourite walks/cycles and so close to home.
With rain clouds hovering and rains in the far background, it was just a question of time when the Rainbow and the train would pop up around the same time.
Here, a South bound UP Stack train is headed towards San Antonio on Austin Sub, track 1 at New Braunfels, TX.
Finished flowers for Ron, now Street Scene for Noel - what are friends for? Well maybe not quite the street but a train station! The Union Station is a historic building in Toronto that has resisted demolition and repurposing. It was the train station where Canadian soldiers departing for the East kissed their families and loved ones goodbye during WWII. There have been renovations, extensions, expansions to it, but thank God no one has the audacity to build over it yet. The last of my friend and professor who left here to fight for King and Country died last year, age 101.

A loaded ore train returns to Braddock, Pa as seen from the famous Westinghouse bridge.
This shot is a result of an effort to include railfanning with my trucking career resulting in finding a convenient parking spot for my layover about a ten minute walk from this location.
A nice little sunburst through the trees and some framing by this giant tree on the Liberty Memorial Lawn.
The Union Chapel is a spectacular Grade 1 listed building filled with beautiful architectural details, original features and flooded with natural light.

Although first built in 1855 as a Presbyterian church, this became known as a Union Chapel when Anglicans and other denominations began to use it for services.
I have deliberated composed this photograph to pay tribute to the spirit of rural Australia that allowed cooperation in a time of division. This shot might be the last chance we see this little abandoned chapel in some sort of idyllic setting. It won't last too many years unless something is seriously done to preserve it.
I hope you see this composition the way I do, like an old quilt with the scene of a little country church on it, with of course, that white picket fence. You've seen them before I'm sure.
Tomorrow we'll actually go inside and survey the damage.

The Union Jack can be flown by any individual or organisation in Great Britain on any day of their choice. It can be flown upside down as a distress signal.

La bandiera del Regno Unito (comunemente Union Flag o Union Jack) fu adottata nel 1801 in seguito all'atto di unione con il quale il Regno di Gran Bretagna e il Regno d'Irlanda si univano a formare il Regno Unito di Gran Bretagna e Irlanda. Derivata da una versione precedente adottata nel 1606, è anche stata la bandiera rappresentativa dell'Impero britannico.
Alcune ex-colonie britanniche e reami del Commonwealth (ad esempio il Canada) danno ancora status ufficiale o semi-ufficiale a questa bandiera. È l'unica bandiera al mondo ad aver sventolato su tutti i sei continenti contemporaneamente: Europa, Nord e Sud America, Africa, Asia, Oceania e Antartide. Ancora oggi la Union Flag è presente nel cantone di alcune bandiere nazionali: Australia, Nuova Zelanda, Figi e Tuvalu. Inoltre è presente su tutte le bandiere delle dipendenze britanniche d'oltremare (tranne Gibilterra) e sulle due bandiere degli Stati associati alla Nuova Zelanda: le isole Cook e Niue.
