CN 4775 slowly brings CN train L523 down the water power spur towards the Thilmany pulp mill in Kaukauna, WI. With a few other locals in the area falling under FOXY ownership now, L523 will be a constant mark in a changing Fox Valley railroading landscape.

Sitting along a Northern Wisconsin river on a pleasant summer's afternoon is nothing short of dreamlike, with the only sound being the songs of the local birds and the thoughts in one's mind.

Summer 2019

Saturday we took rural roads to do a bit of "leaf peeping" (looking at autumn colors). All of the photos were taken while driving because our COVID-19 numbers are one of the highest in our nation. It's fortunate that Lori enjoys driving rural roads and has patience with my photography-from -a moving-car attempts.

For what for the fourth of July has now turned into an everyday amusement park. The fourth of July fireworks have been said to be cancel, however people still enjoy the carousel as a way to have some form of celebration. On this carousel are a variety of brightly colored horses, cartoon characters and benches for those who just want to enjoy a minimal motion ride. Even though all seems so gloomy with all the problems, we would like to wish everyone a safe and memorable Summer.

I don't recall ever seeing an Ohio farm that looked this well maintained.

The people I was riding with were in a pretty big hurry and so we rarely stopped. When we finally did, I took advantage of the few minutes to take a few shots. The trip was great, but I would have preferred to be on a photo safari where we had plenty of time to explore and take some shots of all the cool things we saw along the way. I've learned that is what happens when you travel with non photographers or are in a hurry. You just have to do what you have to do and be happy that at least you have a chance to travel to new places.

This table and bench set is located behind the nature center at Kohler-Andrae State Park. I don't forsee it being used in the near future. ;-)

On Jefferson Street, Madison, WI

Kohler-Andrae State Park (Wisconsin) on a sunny winter's day.

I decided to take a little break before posting more photos of the southwest.

Yesterday, I spent a good part of the day inside my garage sorting out things for our move. After finishing up that project, I decided to venture out in the sun and blue skies in the direction of Black River Marsh. It was good to get out in nature, away from dust, dimness, and possessions. This trio of photos captured some of the feathered friends that I encountered.

This redwing blackbird was just hanging out on the edge of the marsh boardwalk and wasn't at all concerned by my presence.

I took a lot of shots of the Wisconsin, and looking back I appreciate the different views and angles.

I hope to visit one of its sister ships, New Jersey, at some point in the future.

Wind Point Lighthouse, Wisconsin. 4-2-2018.

I had to drive close to an hour on icy county roads with occasional detours due to road closures to get to this location. It was worth it.

Southern Wisconsin received anywhere from 8-12 inches (20-30cm) of snow in the past 24 hours. I shoveled 9-10 inches from my sidewalk and driveway. No better way to work off all of that turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes. And pie.

The temperature will drop to 4 F (-16 C) tonight, so I'm glad it is cleaned up.
