On a beautiful May afternoon waves from the mighty Pacific crash ashore, their thunder drown out only by the sound of steam. Returning from a weekend excursion to San Diego Santa Fe 3751 gets to stretch her legs while westbound along San Clemente State Beach. Once the fourth district of Santa Fe's Los Angeles Division these rails were once a familiar haunt for the 3751 during the steam era.

È di gran lunga il luogo più spettacolare della città: tutte le stradine che vi accedono sono percorse da asini stracarichi di pelli conciate e da conciare, che diffondono dappertutto un odore particolare e inconfondibile.

The Medersa Bou Inaniya is the architectural gem of Fes, just like what the Medersa Ben Youssef is to Marrakech. It was raining and the prayer hall (on the left of the courtyard, not shown here) was in use when I took this shot.

Santa Fe FP45 #5998 in "Super Fleet" Warbonnet paint leads a Northbound manifest train just North of Palmer Lake on Main #2 in April of 1990. When released from the shop, it carried number #108 but was soon renumbered to this interim number as the new GP60M's were being delivered in the 100 series. Not long after this picture was taken, the engine was once again renumbered to #98.
The historic former Santa Fe Depot in Downtown San Diego, California. The following information is excerpted from Wikipedia:
"The Santa Fe Depot in San Diego, California, is a union station built by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway.
The Spanish Colonial Revival style station is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A wing now houses the downtown branch of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego.
The Santa Fe Depot (as it was originally designated) officially opened on March 8, 1915, to accommodate visitors to the Panama-California Exposition. In its heyday, the facility not only handled Santa Fe traffic but also that of the San Diego and Arizona Railway (SD&A) and San Diego Electric Railway (SDERy). The designation was officially changed to "San Diego Union Station" in response to the SD&A's completion of its own transcontinental line in December 1919. The Santa Fe resumed solo operation of the station in January 1951 when the San Diego and Arizona Eastern Railway (successor to the SD&A) discontinued passenger service, the SDERy having ceased operation some two years prior.
The historic depot is still an active transportation center, and as of 2017, was the third busiest in California (behind only Los Angeles Union Station and Sacramento Valley Station) and the 10th busiest in the Amtrak system, boarding or detraining an average of approximately 2,130 passengers daily."

Typical Santa Fe home, I love it.
I especially love the owl protecting the house in the bottom left hand corner of the shot.
“The thing that matters most to me in photography, and art in general, is the sense of sharing the experiences of the artist or creator, of being with them, of seeing what they have seen through their eyes. Morocco has bewitched me (…)” by Harry Gruyaert
I revisited one of my favorite places, Santa Fe, for several days this past week. It was a treat to see the Christmas decorations, and to have the parks and trails accessible (my last trip was taken during the government shutdown, when all were closed.)
The buildings in the town were outlined with luminaria, or “farolitas” to the locals. Though these are electric versions of the paper bag lanterns traditionally containing candles placed in sand, there were many hand-lit versions to be found along walkways and paths.
At night the lights were magical. I have a lot of photos to review, and a lot of catching up to do...I’ll be around soon! :-)
