Linn Run as it passes over flat rock. The water was roaring today as we were here during the rain, not the best day to try out the natural water slide. A return trip in the spring when all the rhododendron are in bloom is on my bucket list for next year.

Salt flats.
Rose doesn’t like the flat country, but I always did – flat country seems to give the sky such a chance.

The Flat Iron Building in NYC is one of the iconic buildings to see. We have our own version here in Denver, The Brown Palace Hotel although it is nowhere near as tall. Ours actually precedes the NYC version by 15 or so years having been built in the late 1800s. There is all sorts of history about the hotel these days from scandalous murders and hidden bootlegger and speakeasy tunnels from the prohibition era. These days they do a fancy brunch on weekends and high tea in the lobby in the afternoons.

The Bonneville Salt Flats are all that's left of the historic Lake Bonneville, a giant lake rivalling Lake Michigan in size that included the current Great Salt Lake.
Now all that remains is potash salt, which during summer is dry and solid but in winter is covered in a small amount of water.
This was taken in early Spring and the water has yet to dry.
The most famous claim to fame of this area is the Bonneville Speedway, a few miles away where many Land Speed Records have been set.
Flat car (1st version/2013). Additionally this MOC is part of the book "Lego Tips, Tricks & Building Techniques" by Joachim Klang (-derjoe-) in which I acted as coauthor with a few of my models.

Picked up a few things on my walk today and brought them home, added a couple of things from my garden and laid them out on a slate topped wall.

There was a fascinating exhibit at The San Diego Air & Space Museum about Leonardo Da Vinci when we visited. Here is his model of ball bearings -- made of wood but of course today of metal and an essential part of many things we use and depend on.

The couch was conveniently left as was the bed and springs in the back room. Voila! A furnished flat ready for your immediate occupancy! Glass in the boarded up windows is presently on order.Daily inoculated by UV, there is not a speck of Trumpandemic-19 to be found.
At the time, I was returning to an agricultural series on my return from my eDDie sunflower trek. Early, I grabbed my gear immediately and bailed out east on SH #66 toward I-25 but turned north on back road #7 to scout for anything of interest. I grabbed some floral tributes to early morning while there. On my way to sunflower overload, I spotted a few items of rural interest and decided to return on the same route at a sane speed. I found captures that interested me as long as I had plenty of time to poke. Now I feel that I should have been even pokier while managing to avoid the pokey at cruising speed.
I was blasted by sunflowers before but we had a hazy sky due to some degree of moisture and a large load of "fake" smoke from California and Colorado wildfires. I heard that is no smoke from wildfires in California because der Leader has decried "global warming" as fake news. It must be something else entirely but boy is it thick. Damn, it's really hot even this early in the morning. It was early in the day but it was starting to slug me down. It was smart to bring my Propel hydration.
Although a plain shot, this old derelict shack was more poorly built than others but has yet to tumble and I love this old exterior wood grain and its patina on the humble house that held against the prairie winds in its past. The shack has accumulated old farming implements and other collected detritus outside. It looks like the California smog is moving on east for the edification of Kansan global warming hoaxers. They await the Sturgis flu... another week to go!
After several shots, I am now on my way back to highway #66 and to Logmont before it gets really hot and I empty the rest of my hydration. Yesterday was another hoax warming bummer and we pray for September relief until the fake global warming ramps up worse next summer. Real global warming reared its head this August with 2 days below normal, one normal and the rest above. That means we can spend next year under AC fueled by fossils while waiting for the END and the end of the first Trumpandemic surge in the US. I suppose that you could get cheap boarding in this rural shack but it is reserved for migrant labor. It may no longer have any utilities connected - or heating. That is not the problem this summer as is sleeping. The entire property will eventually be razed for planting a new corn field. This is another of the captures I snapped east of the city limits which extend ever further. Ahhh well, this is another leftover glimpse of the old Colorado west. Boarding-wise, you could get a bit nippy in the winter.
This became one of my most tangled edits using layers and one reversal of an Alpha layer. I had to change my normal layers order. It became a major time drain until I finished.

Mesquite Flat Dunes in Death Valley National Park are made up of tiny grains of quartz and feldspar that form sinuous sculptures, particularly at sunset when the low light casts shadows on the rippled sand.
