This is the light at Loop Head. There has been a lighthouse at Loop Head since the 17th century. This one is now automated and the extensive building complex around it is available to rent by tourists.

Special New Flyer GE35LF bus branded for Super Loop route at University Town Center.
In 2015, SuperLoop was added to the San Diego Rapid bus transit network. Today, the routes are part of the Rapid network, with UTC transit center becoming a hub for the combined network. This ended the physical usage of the SuperLoop brand name after six years.

"The only thing this place has going for it is the location. Do not be tempted to just walk right in, even though it's a convenient stop on your sightseeing tour. I've had better food at WAFFLE HOUSE.
We stopped in for breakfast. It was among the worst meals I've ever had. The eggs in my cheese omelet were classically overcooked, which wasn't so bad, but the omelet was filled with some food-service version knockoff of Kraft cheese slices. Hours later, I can't get the taste of it out of my mouth. The hash browns were more like frozen, reheated potato mush that's been warmed over. The greek cofee ($3.50) was decent, but served in a tiny, tiny cup that was half-sludge. My partner's two eggs were fried into rubbery oblivion.
28 crazy overpriced bucks for the worst breakfast of my life, counting the meals I've had on airplanes and in school cafeterias. Our waiter was nice, but had a strange air about him that, in retrospect, we can probably best categorize as "pity."
To add insult to intestinal injury, they only take cash or AmEx. How can a place like this stay in business? Ignorant tourists like me" -- Lauren H. via yelp

Tehachapi - the name conjures up images of The Loop wherever railfans and modelers gather throughout the world. But railroading in Tehachapi is much more than just the loop alone. It involves the entire 70 miles of railroad between Bakersfield and Mojave. Building a replica of this line has challenged modelers just as the pass itself challenged the railroad barons of a century ago.
The La Mesa Model Railroad Club has responded to this challenge by building an HO scale (1/87th actual size) model of this joint Southern Pacific - Santa Fe line with nearly curve-for-curve and switch-for-switch accuracy. This single track railroad, built through a notch in the Tehachapi Mountains, carries nearly all north-south rail traffic between central and southern California. It is also the eastern outlet for most of the produce grown in the San Joaquin Valley.
Two of the most attractive things about the Tehachapi are the mountain scenery and the nearly continuous series of sharp reverse curves forced upon the railroad by the rugged terrain. The famous Loop is located at Walong siding, where an engine of a 100 car train spirals up to cross directly over its caboose 70 feet below. In several places the line doubles back upon itself, making it an ideal candidate for modeling. The model is unique not only for its size but for its geographic fidelity. Literally thousands of photographs of the prototype have been used to ensure that each detail closely models the features of the actual area. The La Mesa Model Railroad Club meets every Tuesday at 7:00 pm and Monday work session are from 10am-6pm.

Chicago Loop is one of 77 officially designated community areas located in the City of Chicago, Illinois, United States. It is the historic commercial center of Downtown Chicago.
Went out to Fountain Hills today and "due to rain" I shot from the cheap seats, after a few attempts I hit road back to Scottsdale.
Upon exiting the freeway near home, I looked out over the cotton field during that golden hour sunset and decided to make a U-turn and stop to take a few shots.
Whats that saying? "never set out for a shot because you wont get it and will probably find unplanned gold elsewhere"... :)

I had a bowl of froot loops today. Noticed last night that my milk was going to expire soon and figured I should use it up as much as I can. I'm also looking up a couple of recipes to try out next week. :-)

Pima County celebrated the completion of The Loop by hosting a celebration at Brandi Fenton Memorial Park on Saturday, March 17, 2018. Other celebrations were held at Kino Sports Complex.
The Micklehurst Line was a railway line between Stalybridge, Cheshire, and Diggle junction in the West Riding of Yorkshire (now part of Greater Manchester). The line, approximately eight miles (13 km) long, was also sometimes referred to as the Micklehurst Loop and the Stalybridge and Diggle Loop Line.
The London and North Western Railway had built its line from Stalybridge to Huddersfield through Standedge tunnel between 1847 and 1849 and it opened on 1 August 1849 for through trains between Liverpool Lime Street, Manchester Victoria, Huddersfield and Leeds. The increasing number of passenger and goods trains on the route required a second single-bore tunnel to be built, opening in February 1871. A further growth in traffic required construction of a double-track tunnel which was completed in August 1894.
To effectively serve the four railway tracks through the Standedge tunnels, an additional twin-track railway line was required. The original track had been built on the steep, western slopes of the Tame Valley making it difficult to add a second pair of tracks alongside, so the new line was built in parallel, along the eastern side of the valley and about one mile distant. The new line was completed in 1885.
Whilst the line had mainly been built with through goods trains in mind, the LNWR built four intermediate passenger stations on the line, all opening on 3 May 1886. The first out of Stalybridge was Staley and Millbrook; next was Micklehurst; the third station from Stalybridge was Friezland and the nearest to the junction at Diggle and the tunnel entrance was Uppermill. Passenger traffic in this sparsely populated Pennine valley was light. Micklehurst was closed to passengers on 1 May 1907; Staley and Millbrook on 1 November 1909; and Uppermill and Friezland stations on 1 January 1917.
The line had been built primarily to handle the many goods trains that ran between Lancashire and Yorkshire. A typical weekday in Autumn 1952 saw at least thirty-seven eastbound goods trains running into Yorkshire using the Micklehurst Loop and a similar number of westbound trains. The loop had easier gradients than the original line through Mossley and Greenfield and this caused most of the heavy goods trains to use it.
Daily local freight trains called at each of the stations to shunt waggons in the goods yards until and after their closure to passengers, Uppermill closing for goods traffic on 15 June 1964. The section of the line from Diggle to Staley and Millbrook was closed to all traffic on 3 October 1966, with the remaining section from Stalybridge to Staley and Millbrook surviving for a few more years to serve Hartshead Power Station near the latter location.
The track was lifted soon after the line's closure in the 1960s although the vast majority of the original trackbed is now part of the Pennine Bridleway. Royal George tunnel between Greenfield and Micklehurst was buried with both portals landscaped soon after the line closure. The demolition of the Greenfield viaduct and other bridges in the area was completed in 1979. Butterhouse tunnel between Uppermill and Diggle remains intact although the Southern Uppermill portal was backfilled and landscaped in the late 1980s. The Northern portal in Diggle has been untouched since the line's closure. Most of the station buildings along the route remain intact.

Chicago: Alley capital of the world
Chicago, it turns out, has the largest network of alleys in the nation and, almost certainly, in the world. We learned this after calls to dozens of U.S. cities showed none with anywhere near Chicago's 1,900 miles. No single authority keeps comprehensive international statistics about alleys, but the scholars, urban planners and other experts we consulted knew of no other world city anywhere with as many. This chart compares four U.S. cities with extensive alley networks. (Not included are New York, which has relatively few alleys, and Los Angeles, which didn't provide a map of its 800 miles of alleys.) The distinctive alley patterns reflect the development trends in each city.
Chicago's original city plan in 1830 included alleys through every block, a pattern that continues. Today, well over 90 percent of the city's blocks are bisected by alleys.

This was too long to fit into my frame, so it had to be diagonal, and a tad looped! I'm not sure which Geometrid this is.
