Taken on the Clyde on the way to Inchcolm Island, We did have a close encounter with the boat when he drifted over in front our boat we had a few scary moment's.

I've been a very short SL vacation probably a week or so. I wanted to share a previously unreleased pic or two.
Once I saw this place in pitch darkness
This train in grey
It's the colors that you paint
The liveliness that you bring
That turns this journey into eternity

"When are you planning to settle down?"
"I don't think we really settle down. Isn't it more like moving from one destination to the next? We're always going to fight a change, then embrace a change, then stick with a routine then repeat the cycle."
"You don't want to settle down? Have a forever home?"
"How could I even consider this when the world around me is ever changing? How can you pick a spot and hope that you always roll a 20 so it would never be disturbed? War, terminations, depression, economic crisis, citizenships and what about nature itself, earthquakes, floods..."
"But you can't possible keep moving as you grow older..."
"Why not? Maybe I'd like to retire near the beach for a year then move to the country side in the next year, then up in the mountains a year after that."
"Or why not just spend your days in your furnished apartment watching all the movies you missed, reading all the books you couldn't in your youth, watching your grandkids play with their grandpa computer games or just brush your cats..."
"I could do that too...but I could do plenty. Settling down just seems unlikely when you aren't really sure where you belong."
Sometime between them falling asleep and Winston sneezing, the two souls were slowly entering another dimension. That place between reality and a dream where anything was possible.
All their dreams, aspirations and hopes appearing around them as their surroundings begin shifting. From plain, worn out and metallic to mossy, flowers and the smell of the wind.
Perhaps if Winston did not sneeze, they would have been sucked into one of their 'adventures'...
P.S. Had the luxury on my 1 day off to have been invited by a ginger for a photo session! We decided to do our own versions and I adore the variety!
De ballasttreinen van en naar Quenast blijven inspireren. Als je wat zoekt, vind je trouwens op lijn 115 ook wat minder ongebruikelijke standpunten dan dat van het welbekende in Ripain (PS: niets tegen dit standpunt, maar dat zit ondertussen wel al een paar keer in mijn verzameling).
Op woensdag 23 maart 2022 trokken we zo met vier man naar de inrijsignalen van Quenast en nadat de ontspoorwissel goed gelegd was, was het dan de beurt aan de Franse Fretjes om hun laatste honderden meters af te leggen met de lege steenslagtrein.

The empty ballast train from Somain to Quenast can be seen here at its final destination (remark the entrance signal of the station).
Only a few hundred meters are resting for the crew that was on this train since the departure in Somain.

How often I found where I should be going only by setting out for somewhere else.

Lovely sim to wander around and make images, which I did.
