Icebat and Ox hung on every minute of Barack's acceptance speech. We all agreed that we want to live in his beautiful dream of America.
I want it to be real.
I was up, showered, and beautified —at least as well as I can be— well before sunrise yesterday, excited to go catch it. Oh, and I was dressed, too… don’t want to get so excited that I forget the important things. At my age, I do try to make sense of madness. Not one for tattoos, I have considered (as age related issues may progress) having my feet tattooed with TGIF, Toes Go In First, for just such reasons. After all, socks are important, too. They keep your ankles warm.
As the ladies were still checking their eyelids for holes, I made my way to the beach alone just behind our rental house here in Nags Head. Look what they missed… ha! Most others here at the beach did, too, as I had this all to myself. Nobody but me and the trail of pelicans riding the air pushed off the far wave… they apparently thought this was worth getting out of bed, too. The camera is a great motivator. And while Earth and Sun have been through this dance seemingly forever, it never gets old. This is as good a reset for peace, joy, and wellbeing as I can muster at the moment. “Changes in latitudes...” In such a place as this, I believe that’s about right.
“These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane”
Jimmy Buffett
Today’s sunrise was epic, too… but that’s a story for another time.
Labourers working on a resort construction project,
take a break and head towards their base.. situated on the neighboring island,
where food and lodging is arranged.
Recently, the Labour Ministry reluctantly announced the figures of 'legal' immigrant workers in Maldives at around 75k. Not big.. they must have emphasized, when considering the amount of projects currently underway.
But it is very big, when compared to the local population, currently at around 350k.
That is roughly 1:4 ratio of foreigner to every Maldivian citizen. Young and old included.
In some local village Islands which are in close proximity to construction sites, the figure escalate to alarming levels, which also lead to much tension between groups and hence lead to many unwanted social problems.
There are approximately, 30 newly leased resorts, 11 airports and over 60 harbour dredging projects.. in addition to the numerous building construction projects underway (or about to begin) in the Capital City and in the islands.
If this is not big, then big is certainly on the way shortly.
The Government is taking steps to develop three mega cities in the following zones.. Gulhi Falhu, Bodu Mohoraa and Ihavandhippolhu.
Just like autumn leaves this is ripening sorghum changing colour , when it is fully ripe it goes a rusty brown colour . This is a seven shot pano .
Shift change at Dongbolizhan at sunrise on 15th January 2016. 'JS' 8167 heads off to the opencast mine with workers on the footplate, as an off-going guard engages in conversation with his relief looking out for the signal for the train to proceed to the JianMeixian coal discharge point.

My life is changing in lots of ways at the moment.
firstly I'm getting married this summer - I'm very excited!!
There were a number of big changes after the SOO bought the MILW and Stevens Point seen a loss of most through traffic as that was shifted to the former MILW Chicago-Twin Cities main. For awhile though the trains between the Twin Ports and Chicago continued to operate through Stevens Point. This set of power east of the roundhouse is no doubt going to be heading for the Twin Ports before long. SOO 770, CN 5215 and CNW 6580 soak up some hazy late May sun in 1986.
We have a lot of leaves already coming down; we've been really dry here . . . Dad is still in rehab for his broken/repaired hip; Mom is not doing very well without him on a daily basis, though she is never left alone. SO many changes . . .
The bosses shut the office early today as they're trying to avoid a visit by the three spirits of Christmas so I stopped off on the way home to shoot some of London's landmarks with my trusy old GF2. Here's a view of St Paul's Cathedral from the One New Change shopping/office building.
NS D12s light power rolls past Osman. The southern half of the siding here has seen little change over these past few months, which is quite the relief given what's happened at Lodge lately. Osman does certainly feel better in these later spring weeks, far less dreary than when the greenery had yet to return. I hope things stay the way they are here - there's certainly less to change, but that does mean if something does change... well, it won't be hard to see it.

It's easy to spot when you're on the old Grand Trunk Pacific main line, as every elevator on it stands a substantial distance from the main track. I guess GTP mandated it. The stacks are also a giveaway, as this is CN's busy main route across the Prairies between Edmonton and Winnipeg. The parallel Canadian Northern line to the north has some extra points of interest, but traffic up there is sporadic. The old GTP has few lulls in traffic, and as I type, crews are hard at work adding a second main at strategic locations. The aging elevator at Asquith no longer loads railcars, its siding long since removed, but it witnesses the passage of more frequent trains than at any time in its history.
Scratch built engine change kit for the SEPECAT Jaguar GR1 aircraft, which contains 3 hand-operated winches, each assembled with an upright tubular assembly that attaches to the aircraft fuselage.
i'm alive still.
snow is always inspiration i find.
Flickr is still my favorite place to upload for a reason even if instragram is more popular.
Klaipėda, Lithuania. The beaches in Lithuania are lined with these wooden boxes - basically they are changing rooms. As many Lithuanian girls like to go to the beach in high heels and evening gowns (or so it seems), these are quite useful.
Autumn moves through the summer mead. Plants go to sleep to wake up again after the snow melts, and the spring sun shines upon the land.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated. 😊
There is one constant in life, time. Check out the former Milwaukee Road sign on the bridge, the ex-ATSF Geep. And fast forward to today...nothing. One wonders if Art bowed his head, thinking back to the “good ole days” of railroading, as he worked many years for the Milwaukee.

I came back from YES few days ago and it was a life changing experience. I met so many people and learned so much. I definitely would not trade anything for this experience.
Oh I totally failed my photography project. I continue it for a few days in YES ... then I completely forgotten about it D: Well, I can always start again I guess (:
I'm so blessed <3
