Marquette Ore Loader

As this is my first ever LOAD I can't believe I actually completed it in less than 24 hours ~ actually it was 4, which is a record for me! Obviously I need to learn how to photograph said LO's but I will learn. I live in one of the most beautiful cities in the USA but sometimes overlook that which is staring me right in the face...the beautiful sunsets. Tonight I'm watching it. Thanks

So this is the first wave of book loading. As you can see I put down some newspaper to make sure the paint does not stick. It feels completely dry but sometimes there is a little patch here and there that will stick when pressure is applied. I ordered some black non-slip shelf liner and that will go in once it gets here so the books are less likely to be damaged..

Loads of discussions in between the shoots. The way it should be an intense learning environment ;)

Ultimate workshop weekend.

One sign probably would have sufficed.. now it seems there's an opening for 'uphill loading'..

This is my brother and I in 1954. It took me 10 minutes for an inspiration, (but I actually thought about it off & on all day) and 22 minutes to complete the layout. This was one of quickest layout ever!! I used a template "May 2009" from Marie Stones "http://www.freedigitalscrapbooking.com" I changed the colors to fit the mood of the photo.

Digital. Needed another quick page for another busy day today. I've had this idea in my head for a long time. So I finally got it down on "paper." It is a 6x6 layout for my personal scrap-journal.

I'm sure more the once somebody left a brown bag filled with cold beer for the crew picking up the car

(Long long over due photos from aw nice exhibition!)

It looked like this truck was getting an adjustment to its load as we passed by in a taxi, possibly because the front wheels were no longer firmly in contact with the ground.

This is page one of a two-page layout from a Bon Jovi concert. stay tuned for the second page!

This is an out of focus picture of a load of algae at a nature reserve. I thought is caught the light well.

I suppose if you lived on the second floor here, you could climb out onto the roof of the loading bay and treat it as your own balcony… right up until the strata fined you for it. I love the stain on the wall from the exhaust of the diesel trucks that back into the loading bay of Thrifty Foods here.

Sometimes loads just don't ride well even when strapped. Slippery metal, not well wrapped and a bouncy truck is not a good combination.

I'm not very good at white space, but really like this! Sketch from Page maps Feb 2011

I had the perfect photo to use for the Kitchen prompt today. My dad bakes a special bunny cake each year for Easter and surprises the kids with how he decorates it each year. He started doing this when my first daughter was born...that was 30 years ago ! I used my Silhouette to cut out the title and hearts.

Another page done. Slowly but surely I am getting this album finished. Mostly I need pics to support the journaling. It's going to happen. This month!

ok, one more for the Your Inner Fifth Grader group. i saw this during my drive to Oregon last week and for some reason it just made me laugh! although i think E got tired of me pointing out the signs every time we'd pass one of these trucks... "look hun! it's another Loooooong Load!!"

yeah, the joke got old real fast... :)

Going back to Portsmouth on the late running 20:00 Wightlink ferry St Clare (again) after a lovely weekend on the Isle of Wight ...

This is a chart of my hour-by-hour usage of electricity for the first full day that my photovoltaic cells (solar power system) was operational. Note that between 9 am and 5 pm, I am at work, but have lizards to keep warm and give UV to, so my energy usage then is actually higher than the 11 to 7 or so when I'm asleep. (Fridge and hot tub are constant throughout the day)
