I am a bit ashamed of spending so little time on you my friends on Flickr, or to reply to your kind comments to my photos. I'm very sorry, but the last time has been very busy.
I once said harvest was done. That is true for baling, but all the small fields where the hay has to be dried have been remaining. They give little, but take a lot of time. The last week is this what we have been doing, making hay in some steep fields. It takes three days of fine weather and work by hand to get it dry. Than we have to get it in to the barn. The old Fordson tractor will be used, it is my only tractor that is small enough to get up.
Sunday am I leaving for some days and tomorrow will be used to prepare it. So it will be about a week before I return. Hope to have better time then.
The light is hopeless, but it was the only one I liked otherwise.
3D-ness.....ok....folded ribbon, foam lifted birds, and top photo also raised with foam. This was a fun one, really like the results.
The Kiln Access Ramp gets personnel and equipment in and out of the kiln safely. The kiln is an island without access to it. Each ramp is custom
designed by certified professional engineer, made
of high grade 6061-T6 Aluminum Our ramps are
as strong as steel half the weight of other steel
ramps. With safety as the priority, kiln access should
be engineered to take into account the burn floor
configuration and what custom fit will the plant need
to safely and easily provide access into the kiln.
a pretty direct lift of an Ali Edwards page...been waiting on just the right thing to do with this photo & this seemed to fit! so thrilled to be getting layouts done - i've missed this. :)

This loader has been sitting across the street from my house for quite a while and I always make plans to try a shot with it. But by the time I remember the sun has gone down and it's dark. But yesterday I finally remembered.
Part of the force’s role is to escort abnormal loads across the road and motorway networks.
Earlier this month we assisted with the movement of a bridge section.
GMP officer took over from our Cheshire colleagues and escorted the load to the Yorkshire border.

I re-learned how to use the calendar feature by accident and the fact that Storybook Creator 4 can insert a calendar that you can fill with pictures...holy cow, this was a two hour project to do 3 pages rather than 2-day 8-hours hair-pulling experience.
I could have got all the pictures in the little calendar square if I made colleges of the days I did multiple pages to get it all on one page, but I like what I made so much on the page, it will be the cover or the front page of the 2013 Picture of the day Album. LOAD 215 gave me such a start on that!
This first day's prompt was so funny. In October for Load I completed one of my son's albums. For this one I want to complete another son's album. The reason this prompt was so funny was, this particular son can talk anyone to death. So to not have any words on this layout is so ironic. What a great way to start this Load. Thanks! Lain.

A pusher set shoves hard on 100 cars of West Virginia coal headed eastbound over the Pocahontas Division at Welch, W.Va.
I didn't realise what the load was until much later.
Note the eye peeking out of the slot on the left.
