I'll screw tubing in it and use gravity to force portland cement behind concrete in shaft to fill any voids that might let water seep in.

Sunday, 28 January 2024: our temperature around 3:00 pm today is a ridiculous PLUS 11°C! Sure beats our recent -30°C's and -40°C's!! Sunrise was at 8:19 am and sunset will be at 5:18 pm.
"As we enter the final days of January 2024, things are looking up for the Prairies. They will be considerably up on the thermometer, that is. It will be a fitting conclusion to the first month of 2024 after such a bitterly cold start, thanks to the polar vortex." The Weather Network.
Adding five more photos from my archives this evening. If I wrote a description under any previously-posted photos that were taken on the same outings as these 'new' photos posted today, I will add it under today's photos.
It has now been 30 days since I have managed to get out for any kind of drive, the last one being on 28 December 2023! The latest "thing" I have had to deal with (yesterday) was having a scam website hack into my credit card. Now, of course, I have to wait probably five days for a new card to arrive. Keeping my fingers crossed that things on auto-payment aren't messed up by this, which I think happened once before.
"On 18 July 2016, I had a wonderful day out NE of the city with my daughter. The last time I actually drove eastwards was about seven months ago, when I was shooting Short-eared Owls near the end of January. The last time (also the first time) I had ever driven out as far as Drumheller was on 29 September 2014. So, my daughter and I had a great time exploring the roads between Calgary and Drumheller. There were a handful of things or places we wanted to check out, but many things were total surprises. We knew we wanted to see fields, yellow fields full of canola as far as the eye could see. No disappointment there, as we took in the gorgeous colour and the perhaps not so pleasant smell of this crop. When we were driving through regular, green landscapes, it all seemed so 'ordinary' after being treated to vibrant gold.
As well as canola fields, we also knew of a particular grain elevator (seen in this photo) and nearby old barn that we were keen to see. There was also an old, two-storey house in a hilly setting that we knew would have to be photographed from a great distance, but we were curious about it. There was also a small wetland that I wanted to drive by, just in case there was something to see. How glad we were that we went to the latter, as a beautiful Black-crowned Night-heron was posing nicely on a post out in the open. This was the first time I had ever seen one close, so it made my day. At least, an adult - in October 2015, I had seen a gorgeous juvenile in Fish Creek Park.
Continuing on our way, we stopped to take a couple of quick shots of an Eastern Kingbird and then my daughter spotted a dark patch just above ground level, hidden in the bushes. It turned out to be an Eastern Kingbird's nest, with what looked like three large babies in it. No idea how she caught sight of this, but it was a treat to see.
Soon after this, we stopped to photograph a beautiful red barn and then stopped again to photograph a Western Kingbird. This is not a bird I normally see, so i was very happy to catch sight of this one.
A short drive further, we spotted a shorebird standing on a fence post - and then a second one a few posts away. At first, we thought maybe they were Wilson's Snipe, but then realized that they were something different - two beautiful Upland Sandpipers. I had seen one a number of years ago, but it was too far away for a photo. These are uncommon in Alberta.
It was a pretty good day for hawks, too - so much so, that I got a gentle reminder from my daughter that I didn't need to photograph EVERY hawk we saw, lol. We had other places and other things that we wanted to get to.
As well as birds and beautiful scenery, we saw several old barns, including a special small shed/granary. Each year, the farmer allows the graduating class from the local high school to decorate this old building in any way they wish. A fun idea and it certainly adds a splash of colour. I was absolutely fascinated to read a little bit of history from someone who was a contact of mine on Flickr two or three years ago. Her Grandmother was apparently born in this house/shed. It was later converted to a granary and now, of course, has become the canvas for local students.
One of our main goals was to visit the old grain elevator at Sharples (seen in this photo). I had wanted to visit there for quite a while and finally, we made it. Unfortunately, the elevator and nearby barn were in shadow, but it was great to see both old structures. We also passed another old elevator when we were driving along the road north of the river, on the way to Drumheller. This, needless to say, meant another stop for photos.
A great day of fun, seeing and photographing such a variety of things. Beautiful weather and, best of all, a day spent with my daughter. Thanks so much, Rachel - glad you felt up to a day out, but sorry you got so many mosquito bites!"

A fitting way to celebrate the first day of the Chinese New Year, I thought! Our chaplaincy held its annual Burns Night celebration on 31 January this year.

The Application of Agriculture Pipe Fittings
Agriculture is the source of human necessities, food, housing and transportation, and the primary condition of all production, providing grain, non-staple food, industrial raw materials, capital and export materials.
Irrigation is an indispensable part of agricultural production. As far as irrigation methods are concerned, flood irrigation is usually used before irrigation technology is perfect. This method of irrigation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is likely to cause land salinization. Pipeline water delivery by types of nipple fittings refers to the use of pipelines instead of open channels for water delivery engineering measures.
Advantages of Agriculture Pipe Fittings
1. Water-saving
Pipeline water delivery is usually underground, so the evaporation and leakage of water are basically eliminated. Tests show that in light loam soils, pipeline water irrigation is used, and the water use coefficient is 95% -97%.
2. Irrigation is Timely and Appropriate to Shorten the Irrigation Cycle
Fast water delivery, timely water supply, and short cycle times are the advantages of pipeline water delivery irrigation over earth canal irrigation. It not only improves the field irrigation conditions, but also facilitates the proper and timely irrigation, and thus fully and effectively meets the water demand of the crop growth period, especially the critical period of crop water demand. It is also suitable for sprinkler irrigation, which saves water and efficiency and reduces your investment.
3. Wide Range of Applications, Economic, Good Benefit
Pipe irrigation technology is simple and easy to learn, and can easily master the use of pipe irrigation equipment. Different crops, soils, water sources and flows can be adapted to pipeline irrigation.

I love this picture with she and her dad talking - he asked her if this dress was still the One and she said yes. (These are the precious moments) When she tried on the store sample it didn't have lining and she (or I) didn't like that at all - the front was the biggie with no lining. So now we need to get this altered to fit just perfect!

Mr Kusaka fits a headset to the Rafael Geminiani frame in his workshop in Kyoto, Japan. How I wish I had a place like this.
Queenie is having a dress made by Imogen ... but Queen is quite fussy and changes her mind a lot ...
Imogen knew she was going to be a difficult client !
This multiple-frame Hockneyized technique seems especially appropriate to the theme of the original drawing -- the difficulties of fitting in to pre-established boundaries. And the tags on each frame are still another way to tell the story. [Created with fd's Flickr Toys.]
The body is fine, and the pad stitching made the neck much better, though still a bit wrinkled. Goofy wrinkle lines from the back of the neck to the underarm, which I think will be fixed by rotating the sleeve some.
