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.

It's business as usual for the 45-year-old Metra 117 as it blasts off from Downers Grove after a quick station stop. One can only wonder just how many times this hunk of metal has passed this exact spot since the late 1970s.
on our way back to the camp.
Thank you very much for your visits comments and favs - especially for the last pictures... you explored them! Thank you very much!!
I found a fox den in May in the woods next to my village. First time in my life... I saw the fox cubs coming out of the den and seeing the sun for the first time in their life... I saw them growing and changing...
I gave my small fox-cubs names. This one is Bluebeard because of it’s blue eyes... now the color changed to amber, but for me it is still my small Bluebeard...
I usually would spend more then two hours waiting for them in the evening... Sometimes they would show up after sun-set... I only enjoy them playing and exploring the world...in this case... Even with my NIKON D5 pictures are just impossible as you loose at some point the speed... But sometimes they would do me a favor and come out before sun-set...with the last light of the day... and when this happens... magic moments can be captured...

While waiting in the warm depot at the Downers Grove station, East End DS put up a highball for the westbound Metra and then another westbound highball on the Zephyr track, and finally an eastbound highball on the close track - classic racetrack form. Fortunately, the eastbound could not spoil the fun as Metra rolls in for a station stop while an NSINTW-type manifest has already come into view on the Zephyr track.
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.

This portrait of a Western Scrub Jay that uses it's bill to point the way it wants you to put the peanuts by looking down toward the ground.
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.
