I guess sometimes there is just no shot to be had! This is the Cable Mill in Cades Cove, a historic water-driven grist mill that was built in the late 1800s and actually still works! I've tried to photograph most of the historic structures in Cades Cove under the stars, just to give a different view of things, and I've tried the Cable Mill on multiple occasions... and just can't seem to find a compelling composition. It's situated basically in a hole in the trees, and to be wide enough and far back enough to see the sky, it just removes the impressiveness of the building itself, in my opinion (you can't make out the paddle wheel). Maybe I just need to go with fresh eyes and find a completely different composition.
I don’t hate Winter.
I do grow weary of the dreary. I do wish I was a bit hardier, being driven indoors by frigid temps and icy winds, preferring the welcome arms of a comfy chair by the fire, or the embrace of a thick throw.
But I do not hate Winter.
For me, it is often a time of peace and solitude, a time to reflect and take inventory, a time to withdraw and embrace the introvert within. But when I do look outward, when Winter grabs my attention, I am struck by the reaffirmation of life that is all around me. Leaves that cling stubbornly to the limb that bore them, bits of green where no green could possibly be, large stately bucks sporting magnificent antlers, dancing effortlessly through the snow, squirrels foraging in the bracken, finding time to play and frolic about, and Chickadees, my beloved Chickadees. Nothing speaks resilience to me like a Chickadee in Winter. Their tiny presence always garners a notice. How cheery they are, these mighty balls of fluff. Just feather and hollow bone, yet seemingly immune to Mother Nature’s harshest challenges of wind, ice, snow, and cold. They accompany us all the way through, with not a moment’s lost faith that this shall pass. They do not bemoan Winter, but readily accept the gifts that come.
No, I do not hate Winter. I am grateful to her.

Lily of the Valley,
French: Muguet, lis des vallées
Dutch: Lelietjes van Dalen
Flemish: meiklokjes (Little BELLS OF MAY)
The flower is also known as 'Our Lady's tears' since, according to Christian legend; the lily of the valley came into being from Eve's tears after she was driven with Adam from the Garden of Eden.
According to another legend, Lilies of the Valley also sprang from the blood of Saint Leonard of Noblac during his battles with a dragon.
Other names include May Lily, May Bells, Lily Constancy, Ladder-to-Heaven, Male Lily and Muguet.
Lily of the Valley became the national flower of Finland in 1967.
The Norwegian municipality Lunner has a Lily of the Valley in its coat-of-arms.
It is also the official flowers of many fraternities and sororities.
... an erect low-growing perennial herb of the genus Convallaria (C. majalis) that has two large oblong lanceolate leaves and a raceme of fragrant nodding bell-shaped white flowers.
All parts of the Lily of the Valley are highly poisonous.
The first day of May in France and other European countries is La Fête du Travail (Labour Day). It is a holiday.
May 1 is also La Fête du Muguet, and the tradition is to give the ones you love a sprig of Muguet, for good luck and to celebrate the arrival of Spring.
Wishing you well and stay safe.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, bon w-e, M, (* _ *)

I have driven by the Old Elon Store for years. This time I chose to stop and take some photos. And later check on the Store's history. The "old store" is the focal point but I liked the road running into the distance as we were on a ridge.
Some of my English friends, and others in Europe, have historical places hundreds of years old, perhaps several thousand. Not here, if anything is around 150 years old; it is old because the land wasn't settled until into the 1800s.
I found that Elon is the highest point in Allamakee county and is located on an old Indian trail that connected the town of Waukon to the Mississippi River.
The store was built in 1874 by Edward Roese and his wife and they operated the store which also served as a Post Office until they sold it in 1907. Locally the store was known as the Roese General Store and ran by the family until it was sold and renamed the Roe Brothers General Store, after the new owners.
"The “old Elon Store” which served so many years as the village post office still lives. After a succession of owner-operators between 1921 and 1980, the property was offered at public auction in September 1986. There were no bidders. However, Grant L. Hagen and his wife, Pat, were primarily interested in preserving the building as a historical landmark. They purchased the old store/post office for that purpose.
For a period “AI Christopherson, an Evangelist from Marion [Iowa] and Grant Hagen have enjoyed a little interest in holding Gospel meeting and Bible Studies in the store.[23] So today when people pass through Elon they may still see the General Store/Post Office building bearing identification as “Old Elon Store” and a biblical forewarning “It is appointed unto men once to die but after this the judgment.” (Heb. 9: 27)"
Above quote from: (allamakeehistory.com/?p=343)
Saxtead Mill is called a Post Mill, because the top of the Mill, the wooden structure above the brick base, turns on a central post.
The external ladder moves around on a circular track, driven by gears on the Fan Tail. This ensures that the Sails are always facing into the wind.

The Snowdon Mountain Railway was built to metric specification as the locomotives ordered to work the line were at the time a standard design being built by SLM at Winterthur in Switzerland. Several European lines already operated locomotives of the same type incorporating the Abt rack and pinion system.
The SMR steam fleet falls into two types; numbers 1 - 5 built in 1895-96 are the older model as seen in the loco on the left with No.4 named 'Snowdon'. Whilst the improved younger version built in 1922-23 represented by No.7 named 'Ralph' is on the right. These tank engines are pure rack locomotives and no wheels are driven all adhesion and motion being gained through the rack and pinion hence the requirement for the toothed centre rail even on level track as seen here in the depot at Llanberis.

Wednesday, 14 July 2021: our temperature is 29C (feels like 31C) around 4:30 pm. Sunrise is at 5:37 am, and sunset is at 9:45 pm. Just below 30C for the rest of this week and then it warms up into the low 30Cs for a few days. So far, forecast for next week is high 20Cs.
Yesterday, 13 July 2021, I needed to escape the indoor heat of my home. I decided to do a similar drive to the one I made with my daughter on 17 June 2021. That drive felt so good, after keeping apart for the last year and a half because of COVID restrictions. The drive yesterday was a shorter distance (391 km) than I had planned, as I kept stopping to photograph birds especially and ended up returning home before getting to my last two destinations.
It was a good day for birds. The very first bird I spotted was a beautiful Long-billed Curlew, Just a quick visit with it, as she must have had babies out in the field. Next, a Brewer's Blackbird on a high wire, and a little further, the first of many hawks seen this day. Most were Swainson's Hawks, but at least one was a Red-tailed Hawk. A wonderful family of an adult hawk with three youngsters has me puzzled, as they were very distant and I can't decide if they were Red-tailed or Ferruginous Hawks. A single hawk later in the day was a definite Ferruginous hawk, perched on a distant fence post way out in a field. Thanks to it being an extremely hazy day with awful heat distortion, I will be posting a blurry photo, but they are such amazing hawks, that I want to post a photo for the record.
A few of the other birds that I was lucky enough to see include a second Long-billed Curlew at a different location. A couple of beautiful Horned Larks posed nicely on fence posts. Plenty of Vesper Sparrows to be seen. A few Canada Geese, and several duck species. Three Great Blue Herons were good to see. A couple of American Robins, always a welcome sighting, and a great 'broken-wing' display by a Killdeer added to the day. Surprisingly, I only caught a quick glimpse of one Western Meadowlark. Some of the ponds/wetlands have completely dried up, which is such a shame.
I have barely been out to see any wildflowers this year, as most of my activity has been by car. I did photograph a few yesterday. A couple of plants that I was happy to see yesterday were a small species of Sunflower, and a couple of plants of Milkweed.
No new barns or other old buildings, as I had driven these roads before. Still enjoyed photographing a few of them again, though.
By late afternoon, the light had become impossible for photography, still very hazy and under sun-blocking cloud. Probably just as well, as it really was time to start on the long journey home. No stopping anywhere en route, as I was already tired out. Felt good to reach home, after a 10-hour, great day.
