While searching for a specific pair of doll shoes, I picked up Melissa only to discover that one of the cats had chewed her hand. Fortunately, I had exactly 1 extra hand and it was the right one to swap out. I checked a bunch of the other dolls within easy reach, but so far, Melissa seems to be the only victim.
A visit to the Highland Folk Museum at Newtonmore, in the Scottish Highlands. A selection of the old pieces of equipment to see there. Well worth a visit.

This poor moth had a ripped wing. It was flopping around on the ground just below where I happened to be standing at the time. It stopped moving when I took a closer look (I guess its last resort was to act dead). I took a couple of pictures and it eventually crawled away.
The feet aren't meant to look nice & smooth..
I wanted to emphasize the roughness, like weathered feet from a hard days work.

I found some more old photos (slides, thank goodness) in an attic room that had been invaded by squirrels.
Thankfully squirrels don't actually like film, so most of them were actually scannable (there are a few more that apparently disintegrated when I cleaned them, because the scans ended up looking like they were in a rainstorm :-( )
This must have been taken in the summer of '73 and just starting out as a trainspotter, because the photo quality is about what you'd expect when you give a cheap plastic kodak to an 13 year old and let them wander off to North La Crosse to look at trains.
Alas, no pictures of the Milwaukee Road's rsc-2ms were in the batch. Probably because they were _always there_ and not interesting and new like the S1, SDP40F, and trains in southern Illinois. Ah well, my memories are a little more durable than these slides (at least until I have a power failure, at which point it all will go *poof*)
