The Palm House at Kew Gardens. I dread to think what the heating bill must be for this building - it has to be kept hot and humid through the coldest weather, with only a single layer of glass to protect it from the elements.
Fading sunlight highlights of DL-109 no. 270 as it speeds the northbound Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad Gulf Coast Rebel toward Meridian, Mississippi, in August 1954.

And I thought the summer is over as we approach September; I guess I'm wrong because the temperature is quite high in Vancouver in the past few days, especially at noon.
After my haircut in Burnaby, I decided to drop by at the Burnaby Mountain Park. I just stayed there for an hour or so and I already sweated like I just went for a jog.
The only thing I can priase about this weather is that it is not as humid as in Hong Kong. I guess after few more weeks Raincouver will be back :)

Step 3:
Heating vent to cure them backside exposed
The pics in order shows the simple process of doing it and having one of the older vented heating provides the dry heat to cure them and complete the process. In the past I had an old toaster oven that was used for these processes but as it sometimes leaves an unsavory smell so I don't advise it if you're still using the toaster oven for warming food or risk getting the wrath of your better half or family/friends.
A relaxed Tuesday in the home office. The heating in the office has broken down, which gives me plenty of opportunity for Svenja.
