Common and somewhat abundant.

Checking in to all my friends on Flickr --- and hoping that all have been keeping well and happy during the pandemic

Wish you all some sun for the weekend!

This month was cold and lots of wind but the sun going down is always a pleasure specially on the beach.

Upper Falls, Vermont

The bridge was built in 1840 by James Tasker of Claremont, New Hampshire. It is distinctive among Vermont's many surviving covered bridges for the Greek Revival elements of its gables, and for the remarkably good condition of the surviving stone abutment, which has precisely laid stonework. At the time of its National Register listing in 1973 it was not in very good condition; it underwent a complete reconstruction in 2008.

Downer

Screaming the piggys westward at Downers Grove, Illinois on the BN race track is GP40 3002 leading a UP U30C - March 5, 1978.

As the sun sets over the windy city, an eastbound Metra communter train quickly accelerates out of Fairview Avenue Station in Downers Grove. A Metra F40PH still wearing the retro blue and red livery provides the trains power as it hurries east down the BNSF Chicago Subdivision.

The red bokeh is caused by a Bottlebrush flower.

Even as a little kid, I was fascinated with trains. Here, my Dad and I sit at our favorite spot about 6 blocks from our house - just West of the Forest Avenue grade crossing in Downers Grove, Illinois.

Photo taken in August of 1986 by my Mom. That puts me at 4 1/2 years old in this picture.

A southbound CN SD50F passes Deval Tower back in 2007. The old zebra-stripped cowl was about to pound UP's Harvard Sub on a dreary day in wire-infested Des Plaines.

The SD50F fleet is long gone from CN and of course Deval Tower was torn down a few years later.
