Love, Safira ♥

She looks less than happy, perhaps she's spent a day shopping in Chester for a new bag to accommodate her new "iPhone Retro", but couldn't find one big enough......

 

Meanwhile, the Northern Belle departs from the platform with 57306 on the rear.

 

Saturday 20.6.15

She was definitely worth the wait! I finally got my 2015 Belle doll today! YAY! I used two Belle 2010 dress' skirts to combine into one fully ruffled skirt. The upper part of the gown is a leftover from the 2011 10-pack Classic Movie Doll Collection. It's almost perfect, I just need to find a better shade of fabric for the drapes around her skirt. But otherwise, I am happy with how it turns out :).

It has been a week now since I said my last goodbyes and I-love-yous to my sweet, adorable, dearly beloved little kitty cat, Belle (aka HRH Miss Belle, The Baked Potato, HoneyB, BunnyB, Bumby, Bumbles, Baby Girl, Cutie Pants, Sweetness, Sweetpea, Little B, Little Peep, Stinky, et cetera); she had a lot of silly nicknames…

 

I think I’ve just been grieving too much to share the news in a public forum or write a proper tribute for her. She was my steadfast little companion for 15 years – from January 2001, when I first brought her home from the Milo Foundation right after the holidays, to January 20, 2016.

 

I don’t think it’s possible to love an animal more than I loved that diminutive little five-pound cat, that “absolutely precious cottonball” as my friend Mark recently called her; she was kind of like a Japanese anime character – and in fact she was part Japanese Bobtail... I miss her so much. I miss her every time I return home and she’s not right there behind the front door waiting to greet me as she always was, with her inquisitive gray nose and quivering little bobtail. (If she wasn’t right at the door, it was possible cause for alarm – like the handful of times she had sneaked into a closet and been accidentally closed up in there for an entire day.) I miss her when I get up in the morning and there’s no little being making demands on me – or just making conversation (she was a rather chatty cat, with all kinds of vocalizations that changed or evolved over the years). I miss her when I go to sleep at night and she doesn’t amble up her little ‘old lady’ stairs to knead around and plop down on top of or right next to me.

 

She was such a funny little cat. A veritable “Penelope persnickety” – everything always on her own terms – and high maintenance as all get-out, but also gentle and sweet and totally devoted. Have I mentioned how cute she was…? With her slightly crossed, bright blue eyes flic.kr/p/ndp8Hp and her crooked little bunny tail and her small kitten-like stature and her ridiculously soft fur. And oh my word, could she purr – like an outboard motor when she really got going.

 

As much as I adored her – for me it was love at first sight – she took quite a bit longer to decide if I was worthy of her… Sometimes I wonder what happened to her in the first nine [or so] months of her life before I adopted her; I suspect it wasn’t very good, as it took her a long time to fully trust me, and quite a few more years after that to trust other humans who weren’t me. (Although she wasn't one to hiss or scratch or bite -- almost never! That was not at all her style.) To my surprise she became almost gregarious in her old age, even though she was sick* for the last three or four years of her precious little life (*hyperthyroidism, liver disease, kidney disease/failure). And either in spite of, or because of her stubborn, willful ways she was a great teacher to me over the years – about patience and love and acceptance. I had so much love for her; she expanded my heart. And now my big heart feels broken in two.

 

This first month of 2016 has been the cruelest month; truly, I can’t remember the last time I’ve cried and grieved so much and for so long: first there was the death of David Bowie on January 10th (the most beautiful, extraordinary man to have fallen to earth); then another beloved cat friend, Mark’s & Kim’s Tony, on January 16th (Tony was the epitome of a "cool cat" flic.kr/p/5CWfUP); and then my darling Belle just four days after that on January 20th. I heard Mayor Bill de Blasio declared January 20th “David Bowie Day” in NYC. I’d like to think David and Tony and Belle are all frolicking together somewhere, swimming like dolphins, forever and ever…

Best Belle dolls ever released so far. I just love those sculpts!

With a pair of Belle motors for power, NS 24E (KCS I-DAAT2) sprints though Austell running from the law on its way to Inman Yard, the crew would make the yard with about three minuets to spare, swapping at the North Tower.

Circa 1691, petitions for a lighthouse were made due to the number of shipwrecks and sailors losing their lives at the hands of this dangerous stretch of coastline.

 

In 1828 as a continuing result of many shipwrecks, a wooden lighthouse was built on the top of the cliffs at Beachy Head. So successful was this that the decision was made to build a permanent lighthouse.

 

Belle Tout was built in 1832 and the location of the lighthouse was carefully planned so that the light was visible for 20 miles out to sea and that the light would be obscured by the edge of the cliff if sailors were too close to the shore.

 

This is a composite image with one shot for the light house and one for the sky.

KCS SD70Ace Belle 4044 is on CP train 281 at Grand Ave. in Elmwood Park IL.

Belle Isle in the Detroit River, has been a city park for many years. It became a state park as part of Detroit's bankruptcy settlement.

The stunning Dina Belle who came to visit us again for the 3rd time (She just can't keep away), this time we went for a darker, more vampy makeup, which suited her really well!
