We went for a hike again and it was wonderful. The forest is so cool and soothing.

Back in April 1990, a westbound Southern Pacific manifest on the Shasta Route highballs Castle Crags siding. It's always nice to get this shot at mid-morning, when the light is best.

Rio Grande GP40 No. 3076 leads a train of forest products through Thistle, Utah on the snowy but sunny morning of Nov. 30, 1975.

A beautiful old abandoned house setting up a little dead end dirt road. I wonder what stories it could tell.

Three Union Pacific GE ET44ACs (ET44AHs) lift a manifest freight heavy with lumber loads through the curves of Bealville, California, on March 1, 2016.

There were 8 or 9 empty freighters in front of our hotel in Astoria, all empty at anchor awaiting their cargo, probably lumber.

Let's return to the Tehachapi Mountains for another look at one of Doug's favorite areas to watch and photograph trains. Southern Pacific 9217, an SD45T-2 model, leads a bulk train of forest products west of Bealville, California. A four unit helper was cut in mid-train. Any idea as to a train symbol?

A single GP40M-2 switches out the Hagle lumber yard on local freight LOF63. This crew works most of the remaining carload freight customers in and around Oxnard. The 1533 is a former MKT GP40, rebuilt to a GP40M-2 by the SP in the early 90s.

The Lumber Exchange Building was the first skyscraper built in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, dating to 1885. It was designed in the Richardsonian Romanesque style by Franklin B. Long and Frederick Kees and was billed as one of the first fireproof buildings in the country. It is the oldest high-rise building standing in Minneapolis, and is the oldest building outside of New York City with 12 or more floors.

55 loads of lumber roll north along the scenic line south of Anchorage.

I like this large truck. One man can deliver all this lumber to a job because he carries his own fork lift with him.

I’m not tooting my own horn, but notice that I caught the tie down in mid-air. A little stop action. Soon I will be able to progress to turtles crossing the road or to ducks swimming in the river.

Happy Truck Thursday!

I am little annoyed with myself for not making more of these trough feeders,

I have so much lumber in my shop that I will never use, making this Trough from salvaged wood was 20 minutes the max,

I placed it next to the kitchen window, as you can see this Black Squirrel does not mind being photographed,

Happy Furry Friday!

When I look at this image, I can hear the sounds of the city as if they were present in the room with me. I can hear the #17 lumber its way up the street and a car horn blare just out of fame. I can feel the warm sun in the chill air and smell the freshly baked bread still warm from the oven. I can feel the vibe of the city and it feels alive.

I love this city. Thank you for having me.

I would love to hear from you. Have you ever visited Poland? Would you? I welcome you to contact me if you pass through Poznan!

No matter how big the nest gets, he's always out there finding some more lumber to add to it.
