I don't know if anyone ever reads my descriptions, but I write them anyway, so there!!
Was out today (August 20th 2021) on a forced vacation day, from 9:30AM til' almost 4PM. 80F today but it felt like 100F. This is a very active line and I probably flicked 20 freights today. 750+ flicks. By the time I get rid of a few duplicates, and bad ones, I'm guessing it'll be about 700 +/-. 700 to straighten, fix any color issues, upload, and also ID the writers. It's lots of time and as you can imagine, it's a lot of work, but so far it's been fun. I'm trying to not rush myself to post before I'm ready. I already have the flicks, and they're timeless. So getting them posted ASAP!!!!!! is not really my concern. Duh..
Had an interesting interaction with a guy while out there. Guy with backpack had walked back and forth across the tracks a few times. The lat time I saw him he was on the other side of a set, about 100 yards away. Next thing you know he's coming closer..... Closer..... And I'm like WTF? I'm way out here minding my own business. He walks within' like 10 ft. of me and I say "How ya' doin'?" he says something, and then says "Trains?" and I say "Yep." and he says "Oh.." and walks away. I think he was feelin' me out, as there's a small population of people who's homes are shall I say, mobile. I've talked to a few of them, and have never had a bad interaction, I just don't like people walkin' up on me when I'm trying to get away from the rest of the world out by the tracks. I go out there to get away from people, not to interact.
======================
I follow some other amazing photographers on flickr, but for this I will talk about the ones who flick the freights. There are a few that I really love. Some it's because of the great locations they shoot at, and others it's the amazing little details they manage to capture. For me (right now) I don't have the luxury of walking the lines and seeing pieces static. 99.999% of my flicks the freight is rolling by at 10-50 mph and sometimes I don't really even know what I have until I get home, dump the memory cards and go through the photos. Because of this, most of my flicks are just straight on shots and documenting what I saw and where. I saw this freight here, on this date, here's what was on it, and i captured it. Buffed or scraped next week, well I have it on "film" for future generations (sounds corny, I know). There are times when a freight will stop in-front of me, and I'll walk up and get some shots of monikers, but it's rare.
Obviously in any area there are sidings where freights park for extended periods, I know a few spots, but as I get older, and older, do I really want to leave my car parked on the side of the road and walk 2 miles to capture some little details I might normally miss? I'd love to, but it's just not practical for me at this time, any many other people do it better than I could. Retirement is getting closer every day, maybe then, when my weekdays are free. :-)
======================
During the Covid lockdown, I was working from home, and I was getting out benching like 2 & 3 times a month. Back at work, I'm lucky to have the energy to get out once a month. Every time I do manage to get out, I come home and my batteries feel re-charged. It's been so f-ing hot here in SoCal though, I can't wait for cooler weather and some clouds in the sky.
As always, thanks to the writers!

I know they only made these from 2004-06, but this is described as an '08 in a couple of places. I'm assuming that's when it was built. Motor Trend International Auto Show, Baltimore Convention Center, Baltimore, MD, February 9, 2018.

i know a song about a wiener man.
i also know a man whose name is wiener- not the guy from the song
Wiener song
I know a wiener man
he owns a wiener stand
he sells most everything from hot dogs to clams (boom boom boom)
someday i'll be his wife,
eat wieners all my life
hot dog i love that wiener man
(wiener man, wiener man)
i know, i know, creepy places, but with the halloween approaching- seems appropriate. it was so beautiful when i was driving by that i had to take a picture.
Well, technology has gone along way since the late 80s. This picture goes out to one of the most innovative game developers out there. Nintendo :D I love you!
Now with the launch of the Wii, Nintendo has cemented itself as one of the most progressive videogame makers in the industry. It's awesome. Pure awesomeness. Seriously can't wait to finish exams, so i can go home and acquire one :D

The Beatles--I Will
Who knows ..............
.......how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely lifetime
If you want me to, I will.
If I ever saw you
I didn't catch your name
But it never really mattered
I will always feel the same.
Love you forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when we're apart.
And when at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
Oh, you know, I will
I will.

You know how I said that I didn't have to go out of my way to look for a cat to adopt?
Well, today I met Simon and Floydd. They were in DESPERATE need of a home. The rescue that they came from is full to capacity. The only place they could find for these two was in a small cramped cage in the back of a small pet store. Twice somebody had filled out paperwork to adopt them, but then never showed up to take them.
Larry and I had been talking about finding a companion cat for Leo, since Bella and Alex are so much older and Stella and May are not interested in being his buddy.
Of course it was only my intention to adopt one cat, but Simon and Floydd had become pretty good buddies in that small cramped cage, even though they are not litter mates. I hated to separate them.
So meet the newest members of Cat Hill Farm.
Both have been to the vets and have a clean bill of health. They have had their first round of shots and both have been neutered, so there will be no heartbreaking ending to this story.
Floydd is about 5 months old and an absolute pistol.
This rather intense look on his face is his first sighting of Raven.
He is friendly and curious and I think he's going to fit in very nicely with the Cat Hill Farm clan.
A couple that I got to know for a couple of months, we became friends over these months.
The pretty bride has known a lot of photographer in Singapore, it’s my truly my pleasure to be chosen as a photographer for the biggest day of her life.
They were charming, loving and pretty all day long, I had never been tired taking photos of them,
and they even had prepared meals for us who making this day happens.
As a wedding photographer, I always want to get closer to the couple before the actual event comes, get to know their needs, their likes, and always try to create the chemistry with the couple and the beloved friends around them. I want them to feel comfortable on the wedding day, during the photo sessions especially. For that, I always go for extra miles beyond I had promised on the paper.
I always work on my assignment with all my heart, I never treat it just to complete my job.
Apart from God’s grace and blessing, I believe this is why I am able to be where I am.
It was really a great day to witness their moments.
A big congratulations to Thaw Zin & Win Lei,
and wish you all have a lovely family and a happy life together.
