My new found work place is in a field office that sits in a ghetto neighborhood. Can't even bring a car withour risking a bit. Everytime I walk outside with my equipment and safety gear I risk attracting attention.
That's the field office. My actual work site though, is a few meters away from the beach.
Whoever said a few minutes of staring at the sun could do no good was probably just a selfish bloke.

September 20, 2024 - The Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad is a National Historic Landmark. We will be riding it from Silverton to Durango, Colorado.
Since I was a teenager it has been on my bucket list to ride this train. I was disappointed however that we were booked on the excursion being pulled by a diesel locomotive and not a steam engine.
"The line was constructed to haul silver & gold ore from Southwest Colorado’s San Juan Mountains, but passengers soon realized it was the view that was truly precious.
This historic train has been in continuous operation between Durango and Silverton since 1882, carrying passengers behind historic steam and diesel locomotives and rolling stock indigenous to the line. It is a family-friendly ride sure to create memories that will last a lifetime while offering a view of Colorado’s mountain splendor inaccessible by highway. Relive the sights and sounds of yesteryear for a spectacular journey on board the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad." Previous text: www.durangotrain.com

View of the field from the south end. Supporters' section will be in this area (or perhaps the section above and behind this perspective).
A bustling highway scene is depicted with multiple cars of varying sizes and colors. The image captures the chaotic yet organized flow of traffic, with cars moving in different directions. A yellow car with a surfboard on top stands out among the others, while a bird perches on the hood of another car. A traffic sign can be seen in the distance, indicating a city skyline in the background. The mix of cars and SUVs creates a dynamic urban environment, with a sense of movement and energy. The image conveys a sense of urban life and transportation in a busy city.
September 16, 2024 - Assembly Hall was closed due to construction.
"The Assembly Hall on Temple Square is a Gothic Revival style building finished in 1882. It was built as place of worship for local Latter-day Saint congregations in Salt Lake City, Utah. The historic building is located on the southwest corner of Temple Square. It was built using stone from the same quarry as the Salt Lake Temple.
In the late 1870s, many assembly halls were built throughout the community as places to worship God. They were a statement of permanence and refinement for the Church and the community. The Assembly Hall on Temple Square was announced in 1877 to replace an older adobe tabernacle that had not been in use due to the increasing complexity of keeping it in good repair. The Assembly Hall was used at various times to host stake conferences and other meetings for the Salt Lake Stake. It was also used for many years during general conference for stake and mission leaders to report on their service while Apostles of the Church spoke in the Salt Lake Tabernacle. It is still used today as an overflow for general conference and other Temple Square meetings.
The building is decorated with original stained glass windows using common designs and symbols of the late nineteenth century. The interior of the building was originally finished in rich detail, including murals on the ceiling depicting scenes and places important in the history of the Church, wood painted to look like marble and fine woods, and new (at the time) electrical lighting. The current interior finishes are from twentieth-century renovations to the building.
Like the Salt Lake Tabernacle and the Conference Center, the Assembly Hall features an impressive organ. The 3,489-pipe organ, built in 1980 to replace an older organ, is decorated with Latter-day Saint symbols such as beehives, sheaves of wheat, and sego lilies. Hundreds of small speakers to aid acoustics are hidden under benches to preserve the historic appearance of the building.
Today, the Assembly Hall is used for lectures, recitals, and free weekend concerts featuring international artists. Its benches accommodate about 1,200 guests. Admission is free to the public for guided and self-guided tours. The building is handicap accessible." Previous description: www.churchofjesuschrist.org/learn/salt-lake-assembly-hall...
