The St. Marks Light is the second-oldest light station in Florida. It is located on the east side of the mouth of the St. Marks River, on Apalachee Bay.
In the 1820s, the town of St. Marks, Florida was considered an important port of entry. The town served as a port for the prosperous planting region of Middle Florida and some counties of South Georgia. Growers hauled their agricultural products down to the port town in wagons by way of an early road which connected the then territorial capital of Tallahassee to the town of St. Marks. Later, this road would be widened and improved upon by the Tallahassee Railroad Company and would become the state's first railroad.
Once the agricultural products reached the new port town, they were loaded aboard boats for shipment to New Orleans and/or St. Augustine. There were, however, problems in navigating both the Apalachee Bay and the St. Marks River. In many places both bay and river were shallow, and it was not too uncommon for boats to run aground and/or get mired in the muddy shallows
After a survey was completed of the St. Marks area by Robert Mitchell, the Collector of Customs at Pensacola, and a site chosen for the lighthouse, it was discovered that the initial construction sum of $6,000 would be insufficient. The appropriation was increased to $14,000, and by mid-1829 a contract was signed with Winslow Lewis of Boston for the construction of a tower in the St. Marks area for $11,765. The finished product was not accepted by the Collector of Customs for St. Marks, Mr. Jesse H. Williams, because it had been constructed with hollow walls. Williams felt that the tower should be constructed with solid walls and, therefore, refused to accept the work.
Calvin Knowlton was brought in to rebuild the tower. He oversaw its completion, and in 1831, Williams, satisfied that the light was built according to the contract, accepted the work. That same year saw the tower's whale-oil lamps lit for the first time by Samuel Crosby, who had been appointed the first Keeper of the St. Marks Lighthouse the previous year.
The lighthouse was automated by the United States Coast Guard in 1960, and in 2000 the Coast Guard spent $150,000 in 2000 to stabilize the lighthouse. In 2000 or 2001 the lighthouse's fourth-order Fresnel lens was deactivated and a modern solar-powered beacon was placed outside the lantern room. The historic Fresnel lens remained in place in the tower for over a decade. In July 2005, Hurricane Dennis broke a window of the lantern, flooding the inside of the tower.
In October 2013 the Coast Guard deactivated transferred ownership of the lighthouse to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, which operates the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. The lighthouse was deactivated in 2016 and the Coast Guard's solar beacon was removed. Financial grants from the Florida Department of State and Duke Energy in 2016, plus crowdfunded donations, were put towards repairs and restoration. On October 31, 2019, a replica of the original fourth-order Fresnel lens was lit in the tower. The light is now maintained as a private aid to navigation and is lit seasonally.

On this the material shows well, as of course does my face but sorry about that. I was just trying the dress on really, I think it deserves to ne show properly outside so when the wearther gets better sometime I wlll do that.
Astronaut Patrick G. Forrester works with the Materials International Space Station Experiment (MISSE) during extravehicular activity.The first MISSE experiment exposed 750 material samples to space from 2001 to 2005 to collect information on how different materials weather the space environment. The objective of MISSE is to develop affordable opportunities to conduct critical space exposure tests of space materials and components planned for future spacecraft. The experiment was the first externally mounted experiment on the International Space Station. On May 18, 2014, the SpaceX Dragon returned the latest MISSE experiments, MISSE-8, to Earth. Materials scientists from NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, helped prepare samples for flight and will analyze the samples post-flight. Marshall worked with commercial companies and other government agencies to fly 96 experiment samples on MISSE-8, including thermal control coatings, heat shield materials, solar array materials and environmentally friendly spacecraft components, such as multi-layer insulation, paint markings, and innovative polymers.

ST . TEILOS CHURCH
St Teilo's Church ----- Originally erected in stages from around 1100 to 1520 and moved stone by stone to St Fagans over 20 years, St Teilo's Church is both an impressive project and a beautiful building.
The reconstruction takes the church back beyond living memory ,when the interior was brightly decorated with murals , paintings and carvings.
THE STORY OF THE MURALS
In the early 1980s patches of colour , were noticed showing through the plaster on the interior walls. These turned out to be amazing medieval wall paintings.
Several layers of wall paintings were discovered. The earliest date from about 1350 and the most recent from 1790.
By the summer of 1984 the Church had no roof and was due to be dismantled. The wall paintings were carefully removed , before this work started. The rewards were breathtaking: over 15 square metres , of late medieval wall paintings were uncovered.
To recover ---Layers of limewash were scraped away using doctors’ scalpels. The paintings were layered ,one on top of another. To uncover the lower layers and oldest paintings, the top layers had to be destroyed. Examples of the oldest paintings are very rare in Wales, so it was decided to save these. Every layer was recorded and photographed.
Nobody know the artists --- they could be the work of travelling or local artists. Perhaps they worked on commission , for the church and monastic authorities, or were paid for by local church congregations. Some paintings were copied from woodcut prints, fashionable at the time
For paint --Artists used pigments made from natural minerals; these could range in colour from purple and red to yellow. Different shades were created by mixing these with white pigment (made from limewash) or a black pigment (made from soot or charcoal).
Sometimes more expensive pigments were used: a blue (made from the mineral lapis lazuli); a red (made from cinnabar); gold and silver leaf.
To paint on the Walls --- The design was traced onto the plaster and the walls were sprinkled with water before being painted. Artists used organic binding materials such as buttermilk, egg yolk or linseed oil to make the paint.
All the walls are covered with these wonderful , re- created paintings – I need to return – only a few miles away .
At MacDonald Park on the Sumas Prairie the Great Blue Herons have formed a nesting colony. In a very short period of time, I watched several Great Blue Heron fly down to the river's edge to gather twigs for their nests.
MTPO is a very soft material that LEGO uses for parts that need to bend sharply without being damaged. I wasn’t able to find much information on this material, but it seems it’s a variant of TPO, a category of thermoplastics blended with elastomers.

Gravity doesn't have any affect on desire. Ceratina Bees seem to become more active in the heat of the day, whether this is due to the temperature or something to do with the light; but that might be limited to our colony. Not sure.

Chalybion californicus
Distribution / Verbreitung: Mexico to Southern Canada (Great Lakes Region)
The name "mud" dauber refers to the nests that are made by the female wasps, which consist of mud molded into place by the wasp's mandibles. The nest is a simple, one-cell, urn-shaped mud structucture that is attached to crevices, cracks and corners. Each cell contains one egg. Adults of both sexes frequently drink flower nectar, but they stock their nests with spiders, which serve as food for their offspring. Mud daubers prefer particular kinds and sizes of spiders for their larders. Instead of stocking a nest cell with one or two large spiders, mud daubers cram as many as two dozen small spiders into a nest cell. Chalybion californicum, the blue mud wasp, is most famous for its predation of black widow spiders. To capture a spider, the wasp grabs it and stings it. The venom from the sting does not kill the spider, but paralyzes and preserves it so it can be transported and stored in the nest cell until consumed by the larva. A mud dauber usually lays its egg on the prey item and then seals it into the nest cell with a mud cap. It then builds another cell or nest. The young survive the winter inside the nest.
Die Weibchen bauen ihre „Mörtel"-Nester aus feuchter Erde oder feuchtem Lehm. Die urnenartigen Nester werden an Pflanzen, Mauern, überhängenden Felsen und dergl. an einer geschützten Stelle, wie etwa an einer Nische, angebracht. Häufig kann man die Nester an Gebäuden entdecken. Die erwachsenen Tiere sind Blütenbesucher und fliegen häufig Pfützen an, um Material für den Nestbau zu beschaffen. Die Brut wird mit Spinnen versorgt. Diese werden nicht spezifisch ausgewählt, wobei pro Zelle je nach Größe der Beute mitunter bis zu zwei Dutzend Spinnen enthalten sein können. Die Wespe sticht ihre gefangene Spinne und lähmt sie. Die Spinne wird im Nest untergebracht, die Wespe legt ein Ei darauf ab; die Nestzelle wird dann mit Lehm „zugemauert" und die Wespe baut die nächste Zelle. Die aus dem Ei ausschlüpfende Larve frisst die mit ihr eingemauerte lebendige, gelähmte Spinne. Die jungen Wespen überwintern im Nest.

Ya se sabe el final del material ferroviario en este país y es que sino se apartan en las estaciones, se hace en los depósitos o cocheras hasta que se llama al equipo de desguace. Nunca se va a poder salvar todo el material por falta ya sea de dinero o de espacio, pero si una parte se puede salvar y más si son pequeñas locomotoras que con el más simple de los motores diesel pueden circular. ¿Se podrá cambiar esta política algún día? Poco más que contar…
