I mentioned yesterday how a major issue is dominating this year's local government elections. Here it is: FIX THE MUD!
Now it has nothing at all to do with mud-slinging politicians for a change. No, this mud is the build up of silt in the Tamar River estuary. The next photo I post will show this in dramatic fashion, but these photographs at low tide illustrate a major problem for our Seaport.
Until the 1960s Launceston had a busy river port where cargo (especially wool) was transported up the Tamar and into Bass Strait. But eventually it became totally uneconomical to have to keep dredging the river.
Until the Trevallyn Dam was built in the early 1950s (to increase hydro power capabilities) water from the South Esk River would flood through the magnificent ancient Cataract Gorge and naturally flush the silt back out to sea. The Tamar estuary is Australia's longest at 70 kilometres long.
Many plans have been offered over the years and the one that would almost certainly right the problem would be to dismantle the dam. But since that won't happen, alternative proposals need to be found. This is where the Tamar Action Group candidates standing for election under the FIX THE MUD! banner have made a stand. tamaractiongroup.org.au/
The plan is a progressive one that concerns itself with the whole health of the Tamar Estuary.

The last thing I expected was an EXPLORE on this photo.
I believe in my profile description it was mentioned that my ex husband and I had a sign making business for about 10 years in NH. Whenever I see sign companies installing, making, fixing signs it's of great interest to me because of this.
This day was no exception and I debated bw instead but went with color. (I'll probably post the bw version or others on this shoot)
Our sign making business was based out of Plymouth/Campton, NH. We did everything from painted, carved, sandblasted, vinyl from trucklettering to installing larger signs such as these. However I was younger then and had 3 children while, at the same tme, running this business From soup to nuts lol.
As the kids came it was a bit challenging to afford daycare and meet our deadlines. I recall being 40 feet up on a ladder in the winter ~ 8-9 months pregnant to pay the bills.
For about 4--5 years I was secretary for the New Hampshire Sign Association. This group was more of a tri-state or more group... Sign companies such as Barlo Signs, Franks Signs, Paquette Signs and many more attended these monthly meetings.
This is a very positive thing to belong to these associations. Especially being new to the business. Other sign companies are very friendly and often times work can be subcontracted so that both companies benefit as well as the customer.
My first street shot EXPLORE ... I'm thrilled to have my 36th EXPLORE here on Flickr. (Unless I missed one )

Come on Flickr!!!! Days of having to work around problems is enough. I'm tired of seeing your Panda. I'm also tired of needing to make 2 and 3 attempts just to leave a comment.

Am having additional issue this evening, but will just try to work around them. Maybe they want me to leave and go somewhere else. Just a bit miffed by everything.
JUST FIX IT.
