Tasty MM 😄
I hate milk chocolate, don't want clouds
of cream diluting the dark night sky,
don't want pralines or raisins, rubble
in this smooth plateau. I like my coffee
black, my beer from Germany, wine
from Burgundy, the darker, the better.
I like my heroes complicated and brooding,
James Dean in oiled leather, leaning
on a motorcycle. You know the color.
Oh, chocolate! From the spice bazaars
of Africa, hulled in mills, beaten,
pressed in bars. The cold slab of a cave's
interior, when all the stars
have gone to sleep.
Chocolate strolls up to the microphone
and plays jazz at midnight, the low slow
notes of a bass clarinet. Chocolate saunters
down the runway, slouches in quaint
boutiques; its style is je ne sais quoi.
Chocolate stays up late and gambles,
likes roulette. Always bets
on the noir.

Just after sunrise this morning, I saw 9 shrimp boats off the coast, and a storm rolling in. After a few shots, I saw what looked like a water spout, so I grabbed a longer lens. Yep. Water Spout! It looks closer to the boat that it was, but I'm betting the guys working on the shrimp boats got a little bit concerned.
In the blue hour as dawn approaches a bit before 5 AM all is quiet at the west end of the diesel shop at the MBTA's Commuter Rail Maintenance facility more commonly known by its historic moniker, BET, short for Boston Engine Terminal. This modern shop opened in 1989 replacing the roundhouse dating from predecessor Boston and Maine Railroads massive 1926-1932 reconfiguration of the terminal complex that included both the new Boston Engine Terminal and Boston Garden / North Station.
Three different models of locomotive can be seen including recently rebuilt GP40MC 1117 outside on Diesel 3 and F40PH-3C 1058 inside on Diesel 2 and HSP46 2028 on Diesel 1.

Winter will be cold this year ...
Our hedge is turning brown - sleeping for the winter to come.
Our first frost this morning - the birdbath had ice in it! Keep warm and cosy or cool and fresh depending upon which hemisphere you are in on our beautiful planet.
