the boxes of the old bridge hang above the boxes of the buildings (which have box windows and box cubicles)
When there was a lull in the fighting on the front in the war between Finland and the Soviet Union, soldiers made this kind of wooden boxes.
OK, so the Red Box Project (www.flickr.com/photos/puckpics/albums/72157663674756954) is largely about the variations and situations where GPO Red Boxes and there equivalents are installed.
These may be planters in a garden center, but they are still red boxes created in homage to Sir Giles Gilbert Scott's seminal 1924 design.

I'd had an Amazon delivery and the box was on the floor by my feet. Max decided to investigate, so I picked up the camera.
First he took out the packing paper, pushed the box upright, went round and round - head first, bottom first, tail in, tail out, until at last he sat up tall and proud!
"I did it!!" lol
One of Scotland's more modern but also short lived signal boxes, Hunterston Junction.
The signal box was built in 1978 to a standard Scottish Region Relay Room design with signalman's area combined. It opened with the commissioning of the short branch off the Largs line into the British Steel High Level Loading Terminal. The new facility built by British Steel allowed iron ore and coal to be rapid loaded to trains direct from conveyors at the Hunterston deep water port replacing what had previously been done at General Terminus Docks on the Clyde in Glasgow. The box opened on 2/4/1978 but initially only controlled movements within the High Level terminal complex and trains running on the 3 mile branch to and from Hunterston Low Level in conjunction with Hunterston BSC Control Tower in the port. It wasn't until 20/7/1986 that it was fully commissioned as a block post on the Largs passenger line when track rationalisation ahead of the electrification of the line resulted in adjacent boxes closing at Fairlie and Holm Junction. Hunterston Junction box ceased to function as signal box when Paisley PSB took over the route on 28//8/1992 when it was down graded to a Ground Frame. So a relatively short life of six years as a fully fledged signal box. It remained in situ controlling access to the High Level Sidings only, being manned by BR yard staff then EWS after privatisation but not in a signalling capacity. With the cessation of coal traffic in 2015 it saw a further downgrade to an unmanned relay room as the branch to the high level was mothballed.
My last three photos from my June 28, 2016 walk in Frear Park, Troy, New York, USA. I saw what looked to be newly-hatched Box Elder Bugs. When I first noticed them, they were huddled together--adult & nymph. As I leaned close, to take macro shots, the adults wandered off, leaving the nymphs alone. Finally, all that remained was nymphs. Not very conscientious parents, I guess! ; )
I rescued this box turtle crossing a road today. Biggest one I've seen in many years, and I couldn't let him be killed on the road. I brought him home and Baby babysat him until Lindsey came home from work. Lins and I turned him loose in our back yard, since we have woods and wet land on our property.
I only took this kind of photo of him.....he's a turtle, not a prop. I wasn't going to scare him by taking photos.
The signal box at Kingussie remains and from what I could tell it still in use. It is quite a big building and as with everything these signal boxes are disappearing as technology goes digital. This signal box is located right at a level crossing so I would presume they monitor it from the signal box.
At 180 feet down, Box Canyon is a deep and narrow gorge in Mount Rainier NP from which the Cowlitz River flows. The paved trail here is a little treacherous in wet weather: steep and bumpy, but plans to redo the trail are evident by the construction equipment here. Purple wildflowers were blooming where the mist was kicked up, but behind roped off areas, so I didn’t venture there. I was a little nervous taking these shots, as the best view is looking over the rain-slicked, dry rotted railing and looking straight down, but fortunately, the landscape photography gods were kind to me and I did not lose my camera gear in the abyss.

I've been contemplating uploading this shot for a while now. I wasn't sure at first but have grown to love the texture and simplicity of it.

I received a package from my friend Ashley today! I decided to share what she wrote on the box, some words, names, expressions that mean something to each of us.
I can't believe I've known her for more than a year already and that I met her randomly on the internet. And she's coming over in June/July! Can't wait!

My Dad made this wooden jewelry box for me when I was a child, it used to play a tune when I opened it but not now & the key is lost. I rarely wear jewelry. It contains 2 pairs of Garnet earrings, a bracelet, a bangle, a pendant with no chain & my wedding ring that I took off in 2000 when I split up with my ex-husband.
It was my grandmothers wedding ring & it's far too small for me now so even if Martin & I do finally get married next year he'll have to invest in a new one. We only met 18 years ago, you can't rush these things lol. I'll keep the ring safe for my daughter just in case? She's got smaller hands.
