Poem about Mac the Cat (inspired by me, written by ChatGPT)
Mac the cat, so ginger and old,
Sits atop the fence, quiet and bold.
In Munich town, his home and place,
He watches the world with gentle grace.
Though he cannot meow anymore,
His spirit shines, like never before.
For Mac is calm and friendly too,
And always happy to see me and you.
With each pat and stroke of his fur,
We feel his warmth, so soft and pure.
And though he cannot speak a word,
His eyes and purrs make us assured.
Assured that in this world so fast,
There's still some peace that's meant to last.
And Mac the cat, with his friendly ways,
Shows us the joy in simpler days.
So here's to Mac, the old ginger cat,
May his days be long and full of that
Warmth and love he brings each day,
To brighten up our human way.

They looked better than they tasted.
Our server warned us that they weren't very good but we insisted anyway. At least I got a picture out of them.
I feel almost compelled to take about 100 pictures of "Big Mac", the Mackinac Bridge, every time I go "Up North". The 5 mile long bridge is an engineering marvel. The roadbed at midpoint is about 200 feet (61 m) above the water, and the water at that point is 295 feet (90m) deep. When it was completed in 1957, it was the world's longest suspension bridge.
The bridge connects the Upper and Lower Peninsulas of Michigan. Previous to it's construction, ferry boats were used to cross the Straits of Mackinac.
Note: Mackinac Bridge and Mackinaw City, although spelled differently are both pronounced "Mack-in-aw".

The temperature was already a balmy 87 degrees when I started my short walk into Bushey Point at Leesylvania State Park early on a summer morning. The air, as it has been all of the month of July, was already thick and heavy by the time the early morning northbound parade began on the RF&P. I135, stacks from Suffolk to Chicago, almost always has the power from I136 when it gets spun. Knowing this train would have 2 MACs, and a fresh leader, it was a nice easy decision on what train to chase this day. The bridge over Powell's creek is easily the best vantage point for good power on morning northbounds, and despite having shot many trains here through the years, still my favorite spot to sip coffee and watch em roll by. Being as busy as the RF&P is, it's tough getting everything north in the VRE rush hour windows. Somehow, BD manages to make it happen, and 135 rolled through at track speed with a hot train en route to Cumberland from Acca Yard for their crew change.
Two macs lead manifest from the Barge in Whittier with some great snow caps standing high above their pair. This was a great afternoon for trains on the arm.
Green Day - Waiting

I've been waiting a long time
For this moment to come, I'm
Destined for anything at all
Downtown, lights will be shining
On me, like in a diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
Well, no one can touch me now, well
And I can't turn my back, it's
Too late, ready or not at all
Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!
Dawning of a new era calling
Don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
Oh, so close enough to taste it
Almost, I can embrace this
Feeling on the tip of my tongue
Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!
Better thank your lucky stars
Say, hey, hey
Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!
You better thank your lucky stars
Say, hey, hey!
I've been waiting a lifetime
For this moment to come, I'm
Destined for anything at all
Dumbstruck, color me stupid
Good luck, you're gonna need it
Where I'm going, if I get there at all
Wake up!
And better thank your lucky stars
Southbound LG1 slows to a stop at Caneyville to meet its counterpart loaded train on a sunny winter day.
BNSF SD70MAC 95280, converted into a snow plow unit, sits outside in the Mid-America Car yard on a sunny November afternoon. Having been completed in August 2025, BNSF 95280 still patiently waits to be picked up.

Did you know that macaws have a highly flexible tongue supported by a bone, allowing them to use it almost like a hand?

Grand Rapids-Detroit freight L303 creates a ground blizzard as it rolls east by milepost 146. A newly-rebuilt SD70AC leads the way.

Unfortunately due to their lack of cab signals I never get to shoot these closer to home on the old B&A so it was quite the treat to get a pair leading here where there is no such requirement. CSXT 4567 and 4585 are fresh SD70AC rebuilds from CSXT's system heavy repair shop in Huntington, WV. Both are original EMD SD70MACs the former blt. Mar 2000 as CSXT 767 and the latter blt. May 1998 as Conrail 4140.
They are in command of CSXT train M433 (Selkirk to Oak Island manifest) sailing high over the massive 1222 ft long trestle crossing Catskill Creek here at about MP 110.3 on modern day CSXT's busy River Sub mainline. Spanning US Route 9W, the creek and Main Street, the once double tracked trestle was built by the West Shore Railroad (a wholly owned subsidiary of the New York Central System) in 1902 replacing an iron structure dating from around 1883 when the route was opened by predecessor New York, West Shore and Buffalo.
I've been unable to find out its height or who it was designed and built by, as well as when the second track was removed. If any of my followers have that information or more that they could share I'd be most grateful.
Here is a link with a story about the original span and an early drawing of that crossing: www.catskillarchive.com/rrextra/brcats.Html
