The Watts Dodger preparing for their early morning departure for the North. They would go up and switch McKee foods near Gentry, and quickly turn back for a short day of work.

Drummer for The Rolling Stones. I have been listening to the Stones since , well most of my life. Today feels like the end of an era.
I saw them on TV performing this song in 1964 and fell in love with Mick Jagger aged 6. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIKfN3CuFXA

Amrumer Watt mit Blick nach Föhr
Der Halligflieder gibt der Schlick- und Salzwiesen- Landschaft im August eine intensive Färbung. Die Pflanze ist ein Überlebenskünstler und arrangiert sich sogar mit dem Salz der Nordsee.

This unique Grade I-listed terracotta building is the work of artist and designer Mary Watts.
The chapel is a very early example of a public art project. Mary, who had trained at the Slade before becoming a painter and sculptor, had a strong social conscience, shaped by her ideas that art and craft – morally improving, financially empowering – was for all. When in London, she had given free clay-modelling classes to shoeblacks; here, working on similar principles, she employed more than 70 villagers – many of them women – in the creation of decorative terracotta tiles for the construction of the circular chapel which was built between 1895 - 1898.
The tiles blend Celtic, Romanesque, and Art Nouveau influences. Inside the Chapel you will find one of the most important and experimental wall paintings in England.
It opened in 1898 and remains a working chapel to this day.
I'll be uploading more photos and a video of the wonderful interior soon.

Watt will not
abate one jot
but of what
of the coming to
of the being at
of the going from
Knott's habitat
of the long way
of the short stay
of the going back home
the way he had come
of the empty heart
of the empty hands
of the dim mind wayfaring
through barren lands
of a flame with dark winds
hedged about
going out
gone out
of the empty heart
of the empty hands
of the dark mind stumbling
through barren lands
that is of what
Watt will not
abate one tot.

It was a struggle to capture this photo while dealing with missing parts on the tripod head. The ball head adjustment knob fell out during the bike ride to this location. Lesson learned, keep the knops tight! Therefore to adjust a composition it required actually adjusting legs to achieve the correct composition. It was a slow-down effort but I managed to bring home something. This image came out of a test series for a timelapse pano, however the interval was canceled due to a family emergency and I only turned 90 degrees not enough to render. I hope you enjoy the processing, a composite of 3-jpg images.
KCS RWT102, the Watts Dodger, builds its northbound train after switching the feed mill in its namesake town. In the foreground is the remains of a repair garage in the town's declining downtown business district.
Watts originally sprung up in the 1910s after KCS moved its division point here from Stilwell. With a population of nearly 400, the town contained multiple banks, hotels, stores, and even a local newspaper. The transition from steam to diesel and the ultimate elimination of the division point brought about the town's slow downfall. Nonetheless, a large feed mill remains in operation, a Dollar General has blossomed just a block from here, and the Dodger continues to make its rounds from the old KCS yard.
