Today being August 3rd 2022 we changed plans.
We were planning a run to the monkey temple
to give all the dogs their monthly injections.
It has been monsooning all over us.
The river has breached the banks.
More heavy storms are coming.
Good time to batten down the hatches !
4:27AM the rain was hitting the tile roof so hard
it sounded like the roof was going to cave in ;-0
We'll shelter in place for now.
Catch y'all on the rebound ;-)-
ps:
that's Rocky laying in the red
clay under muscle nuns porch.
The camera was haphazardly
poked under the porch and
fired off hoping for the best.
Thank You.
Jon&Crew.

After getting back from our adventures with the Dodger and riding the Fort Smith Trolley we returned to Poteau where we would be spending the night again. With a couple hours of daylight left we lucked into a southbound train getting ready to depart and decided to give chase for our first look at Rich Mountain, the Kansas City Southern's own mountain railroad. Shooting trains on the KCS mainline was a core mission for our trip and the last two full days would be devoted to such.
From an elevation of about 500 ft the railroad climbs to about 1600 over the next 30 miles to surmount the Ouachita Mountains with the ruling grade topping out around 1.5%. This is not the most dramatic mountain crossing by a long shot, but it is a historic piece of railroad and challenging enough to put on a decent show worthy of a visit or two, particularly while it remains unchanged as the KCS.
Here is a MKCSH2 02 (second Kansas City to Shreveport manifest) on Main 2 paused beside the 1960s standard plan depot and yard office that are signatures of the original KCS. After a quick crew change they will throttle up for a quick run to Zoe before biting into the grade up to Page and Rich Mountain.

" To Seek Unknown Potential :It takes great courage and inner strength to change from what is known and comfortable to something which is new and fresh. That which is unknown often contains our greatest potential. To seek our potential by risking change is the path of true greatness. Such action brings great favor and untold blessings. " My good friend Andreea has informed me that a closer translation in Japanese would read Kaishin: " to continue improving." I think this is also very suitable for my situation! ;) Thank u my dear friend. hugs
No matter how much we try to fight change, to hold on, life continues inching forward often in indifference. It’s up to us on how we react to it. To shape what you can control within the predictable yet sometimes chaotic changing of the seasons. To spark joy in the mundane and the profound whenever possible. Amor Fati, love fate. Sometimes, less is more.

世代交代を目前にして、そんな声が聞こえてきそうな哀愁漂う東京タワーでした。

New Tokyo Tower is under construction,
so in a few years he may be relieved of his post.
He looks sad...
So beautiful, but so poisonous. A fly agaric sits on the bank side of the Wey surrounded by a scattering of fallen leaves, while the sunlights up trees still in full leaf.
Post processing involved the use of levels and curves in specific areas of the scene to give more depth.
A pair of Norfolk Southern 4-axle EMDs roll an eastbound underneath the now-removed NYC signals at CP 505 a few years ago. NS GP40-2 3067 used to zip through here in charge of Conrail Van trains as the 3399.
The old speedster has been displaced on the hot trains by newer stuff, but even downgraded, the GP40-2 was still looking good.
Nahgriel does looks like Tauriel with the red hair color and blue eyes. Woeps. Keeping it. Sorry, not sorry.

Within seconds of taking this shot, a beautiful red fox ran out of the woods. Of course, I was changing cards.
I have been so indecisive lately. Am I the only one that is still editing photos days after I post them? I don't really like that about myself.
Louisiana is beginning the change from green to brown ....I can't wait for that first real cold snap!
2018 has been a very interesting year on the CN in Michigan, colorful lashups, more trains, a lot of changes has made it a good spot to be at. With Bridge and Structure department currently rebuilding the steam-era wood pile road bridge that allows Newberry Rd. to pass over the tracks, it has made for an already addicting location even more intriguing. Passing under the old bridge, CN Q116 is in full dynamics as they come into Durand to prepare to turn off the Flint Sub onto the Holly Sub with one of the two CITX SD70M-2's that CN is leasing. While change on the railroad can be for the worse, this change is for once, good.
The leaves are turning brown & berries are turning red!
The seasons are changing!

Photo taken during my first ascent to the summit of Mont Thabor (3.178 m), Vallée Étroite (France).
The weather was changing dramatically for the worse... the landscape was appearing and disappearing all the time.. something that turned out as very attractive, visually and photographically speaking.
Here you can see the peak Gran Adritto (2.742) gazing through the clouds.

Spent a couple of hours in the Beeches yesterday morning to check on the colour. There is now a definite change on the way especially at the very tops of the tree canopy and trees on the periphery. There was also that lovely damp earthy smell that you tend to get in the Autumn months and certainly more fungi around than previous years. Looking forward to showing around my first 1-2-1 workshop client next week!
All change. The end of the road for the 11? A change of direction? A refuelling stop? The start of a new and long journey? Get on the bus, Gus?

This old vessel is, after many years at sea, moored in the inner harbor of Tromsø, Norway. It now serves as a restaurant.
i'm thinking about that saying...... change being the only thing you can count on not changing. i have certainly learned over the last many years that no matter how much we think we are in control, we never really are.
it's an illusion.
but what i can control is how much i love, how much i give, and the intentions by which i do those things. that can't be taken away from me.
so this is me. trying to be fluid. still struggling for words. but adapting to big change, not fighting it. yielding. healing. connecting to source. and being open to what awaits me, trusting that it will be exactly what is needed for the evolution of my soul.
and i'm finding peace in that.

If you go back all the way to 2010 you can see how much the field changes - crazy isn't it!? Last year it was Corn, and this year it's either Barley or Wheat - I never know the difference when it's at this height!
