Every home needs a capybara

AccuWeather reports a -5 RealFeel in the small town of Chillicothe, Illinois as IAIS SIPE crawls by the depot, now sporting brand new, much larger lettering. (When I was here last chasing PESI, it did not look like that.) Leading today is the single best engine on the roster - the IAIS 152, an EMD SD38 sporting a beautiful RS3K.

Sometime during all the Christmas events and festivities, I picked up this amazing jumpsuit from Seniha as a free gift. It's the Rosse jumpsuit and it came with a complete colour HUD in solids, glitter and patterns, perfect for chillin' or hitting the town.

The shoes are from Mosquito's Way, the Grace pumps with full colour HUD. They can be yours by joining the group (L$50 fee) and sitting in a lucky chair when your letter comes up.

I'm also wearing two gift armbands from Adorsy, one of which you can claim by joining the group (L$30 fee) and hitting their group gift boards.

Iconic Blue Lifeguard Stations of California

 

Before the mid-’70s, there were three lifeguard services: Santa Monica, L.A. City, and L.A. County. Each had different styles of towers. Some were fiberglass, some wood, some big, some small, some painted white, some blue. It wasn’t until 2001 that the now-unified L.A. County lifeguard service adopted a blue wood version as the standard.

 

For many years you could still find roofless towers. Sun-sick lifeguards called them “penalty boxes.” Today’s towers, which are based on models from the 1950s, feature wide eaves and windows that are UV-protected and angled to cut down on sun exposure. A word to the wise: Lifeguards can see more than you think through those windows, says Arthur Verge, who patrolled Santa Monica’s beaches for more than 40 years.

 

The towers are elevated to provide a better vantage point, of course, but also to protect against errant waves at high tide. Most of the structures are moved inland via tractor in the winter to avoid storm surges and then out again in the spring. El Niño seasons or varying sea levels from climate change can also mean they have to be repositioned.

 

The American flag is flown to indicate the tower is occupied. When there are too many swimmers for safe surfing, the blackball flag serves as a warning. If you see a red flotation device—known as a can—attached to the building, the lifeguard is inside, not on the sand or in the water.

 

One of the few pieces of gear permanently stored in a tower is the bucket that lifeguards place at the base of the ramp to wash sand and salt off their feet. They take the high-powered binoculars with them when they leave, folding the tower’s flaps down to protect the angled windows.

chillin on the tundra

 

Northern lights were out after what seemed like weeks of overcast nights and blizzard filled days. I had to get out and get the shots while I could.

Taken at the Chale Show, 2017. I actually like that he's out of focus, I think it gives the image more depth.

Never knew sea otters came onshore to lounge around, but at Moss Landing in Northern California, we've seen them "out and about" during our last couple of visits.
