Hi everyone... AN UPDATE... I have applied for Disability with the SSA (USA), although it won't be much, it be something, if I am approved. I have been without a source of income for over a year and the disability application process could take several months with the pandemic so if you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as little as the price of a coffee. Anything would be greatly appreciated.
See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you. www.flickr.com/people/jax_chile/

He's a real hit at all the lakes now I even got a "what a well behaved dog" from a young man and that certainly wasn't the case on the first camping trip. Rooster is making friends everywhere he goes and no one forgets his name. His cardiovascular fitness was very poor when I first got him now he fetches forever without breathing hard and I have to call it quits as he has no quit. His favourite is the lighthouse toy it can go far and it bobs up in the water so he can see it and he doesn't mind sharing it with other dogs he meets. I managed to get him on a paddle board this summer. People are still trying to guess his breed. He gets fed raw organ meats, eggs, along with fruits and veggies and much to my dislike he eats horse crap too which all my dogs have done....can't be avoided as its everywhere! lol Best of all he kisses the cats now.
LOCK-DOWN
We have had to date, a miserable May. Early May my wife had a bad fall and had a stay in hospital. Because of a head injury she has been slow to recuperate but we’re getting there.
A close friend also had a bad fall but unfortunately it lead to an early onset of Alzheimer’s and she has now been placed in a care home. Finally another good friend who had bad health has now passed away with a viral infection.
In many ways it seems that LOCKDOWN has not totally passed by although we are still getting our boosters, those that are in bad health or over 75.
Apologies to all that I have not been on Flickr lately however I will now be trying to catch up.
Keep safe to all and greetings. Patrick
Ps We did manage to get a few days away to Norfolk and we both are going back to art classes
pps Apologies to those that I may have missed not always getting those notifications.
I have found another capture to complement the previuously posted image of the Satin Bowerbird. I quite like the uplifting mood created by this one of three young birds frolicking in the trees.
In case you wonder about the Latin name of this bird: male Satin Bowerbird develops his dark violet-satiny sheen after seven years.

late night in the garden of delights
i saw some awesome sights
glowing flowers offering up their love
giving freely with great big hugs
but to get these gifts
we all have to remove our bad bits
it means eliminating the hits
we do
A wonderful attraction I never tried it but I'm sure it must feel very nice to sit inside the seats of it :-) Unfortunetly I forgot my Camera with the memory card inside at my home so this is the one and only picture from the Wasen for today.
And don't forget to take a look at my friends Flickr page :-)

Union Pacific's Clearfield Switcher shuffles a cut of heavy haul rocket booster cars on the Syracuse Branch wye in Clearfield, Utah.
UP 175 is a former Missouri Pacific B23-7 No. MP 4675 and UP 910 is former Western Pacific GP40-2 No. 3555.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) shipped solid rocket boosters from Thiokol Corporation in Corinne, Utah to the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
The 12-foot-wide, 150-ton segments were shipped by rail for 30 years. A clamshell-like cover, hinged at the top, protected the hardware throughout the journey. Fully loaded, a single segment car weighs in at 513,000 pounds.
Union Pacific's Malad Local was shuffling cars on the Thiokol Spur in Corrine, Utah on Nov. 20, 1993.
Some people see me like this.
I think this is very frank portrait 'cause this is what I see in the mirror too.
Photo made by dear friend Daniela Kontic Strojan as far I'm concerned another fantasy booster.
A Union Pacific GP30B rests at North Yard in Salt Lake City, Utah on July 30, 1977. The 2250 HP booster was built UP 737B by EMD in July 1963 and retired from the UP roster in Sept. 1983.

The year is ending, the pandemic continues to hit us in successive waves and vaccination and confinement are still the best defense.
But for my brain the best booster continues to be these moments of isolation with my camera and breathing landscape.
Happy Holidays and please stay safe !

Bulleid/Raworth Co-Co electric loco (E)20002 at Brighton station, in about 1968, possibly for an 'open day'...
The loco was built in 1945 as SR CC2, and included a flywheel-driven motor generator, to enable the - relatively short - loco to cope with third-rail gaps...
It was withdrawn at the end of 1968, and scrapped in September 1969. None of the class of 3 locos survived, but one of their flywheel/m-g sets still exists..
Restored from a high-contrast unfocussed grainy original..

With those fins, I think this looks cooler than the original.
Update: (Flickrblogged: 4/2/2010)
Update: Wow, thanks for all the comments everyone. This high-power rocket was built by Steve P., a highly skilled member of the Spaceport Rocketry Association who specializes in the complex upscaling of small rocket kits into much bigger ones. This is one of his most intricate and at apogee, the "SRBs" eject and are recovered separately. It takes a lot of work to get it ready to fly and I believe it is his most complex, in seven years I've only seen it fly once.
Update: 4/9/2010, From Steve, the builder and owner of the rocket:
"The model is based on a 4x Dr. Zooch Space Shuttle.
The External Tank stands 58 inches tall by 6 inches in diameter. Boosters are 44 inches tall by 3.5 inches in diameter. The orbiter is 29 inches long with a wingspan of 21.5 inches.
The stack uses a K550 motor to boost to about 1500 feet. A 3 output altimeter in the ET commands booster release, drogue and main parachutes. Each booster has electronics to release a parachute."
This was its maiden flight.
The Spaceport Rocketry Association is a non-profit, rocketry club in Plam Bay, Florida. We welcome hobbyists of all ages and skill levels.

Long time no post . . . been so busy. Finally got out the camera to get a few shots of the dogs out in the fresh snow.
An unexpected benefit of being at the Jetty Park venue was that the booster landing zone is just across the water from you.
As the boosters are returning to earth, they look like they could be headed straight toward you. Probably because they very nearly are!
You can actually see in the image the rockets throttling the engines to control their descent (variation in light intensity). Their sonic booms reached my location about the same time as touchdown on their landing, causing me a moment or two of confusion.
Pretty amazing event! Definitely recommended!
Cheers!

The pieces are stacking up for the launch of Artemis 1 mission around the Moon and back. The massive Space Launch Systems (SLS) rocket that will launch the first crewless test flight of the Orion spacecraft, powered by the European Service Module, is being integrated at the Vehicle Assemble Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA.
Visible in this image are the twin solid fuel rocket boosters, now fully stacked atop the mobile launcher. The boosters will be mated with the rocket’s 65 m tall core stage that recently barged in to Florida aboard the Pegasus barge on 27 April after successful testing at NASA’s Stennis Space Center in Mississippi.
Once the rocket stages are ready to go, the Orion spacecraft and additional flight hardware are next up for integration.
Since our last Orion and the European Service Module update for Artemis I, the spacecraft has moved, from the NASA Kennedy Space Center’s Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout facility, a few kilometres down the road to the Multi Payload Processing Facility. The names of these buildings give the game away. The first Orion spacecraft has been checked out and is ready for the next step on the road to space: processing for launch.
Fuelling was completed on 1 April, after which the system will be serviced in high pressure helium that serves as a pressurisation agent to the European Service Module propellant tanks, ensuring the correct pressure at the engine inlets.
Eventually, the spacecraft will be hoisted to the top of the fully stacked SLS rocket.
Read more updates on the Orion blog.
The European Service Module is ESA’s contribution to NASA’s Orion spacecraft that will send astronauts, including the first European, to the Moon and beyond. Follow Europe’s role in the mission here.
