For once I had the opportunity to shoot out of a car while a friend was driving... in this case, somewhere in southwest Nebraska last July where we were desperately hoping to not get hailed on by the supercells active that day.
For many days, I googled to find this place, but was not able to. I felt so disappointed to not be able to find. So, this past Saturday, I decided to take a road trip to seek some different locations; while I was driving, I'd say five miles or more away, I noticed there was a building that I thought I'd better to check it out. As I got closer, and closer, my heart started to beat faster, and screamed "Yes! I found it!" I parked my truck, stared at this place for some moments; a lot of reflect. It was a beautiful sight. I sure glad it's still standing, because I originally thought someone already torn this place down.
It was a great day for me.

The sun was dropping and I still hadn't found a place to camp for the night. But this little scene was one I couldn't give up. That said, I was shooting 50iso film, so I needed to be quick and really steady since the shutter speed was super slow.
This was probably 1/30 or 1/15 of a second. It's not the crispest photo in the world, but I got the shot.

Oh Yeah... Lightning Storm that evening... It came in late, and I had gear packed and ready in case a storm started to brew. Only a 30% chance but that means its gonna storm in Nebraska.
NWS had just issued a severe thunderstorm warning for Phelps & Kearney Nebraska Counties and it was moving right in my direction. I had time to get into position and wait for the show to begin! I ALWAYS have front row tickets to this type of show!

This is Sugarloaf. It's a small butte in Oglala National Grassland in Nebraska. Quite a number of mountains are named "Sugarloaf." There are over 35 of them in the United States alone.
What most of these have in common are that they are round and kind of steep - not quite pointy. All of them are named after the same thing: a loaf of sugar.
A sugarloaf is something we don't have much these days. Prior to the advent of sugar cubes and granulated sugar, this is how sugar existed in the lives of our ancestors.
It was fairly cone shaped and incredibly hard. You would need to use a device called "sugar nips" to break off bits of the loaf. These are kind of pliers, kind of snips.
The shape was attained through the use of a mold. After the raw sugar was extracted from sugar cane or beets, it was boiled. The liquid and boiling sugar was dumped into cone-ish shaped molds with a drain at the bottom. During the process, the non-crystalline stuff would drain out into a pot - this was (more or less) molasses.
You can still find unrefined versions of this in Indian grocery stores. It's called jaggery, and it's kind of like a cross between sugar and molasses (the molasses is not separated out). It's sort of like really solid brown sugar.
Anyway, seeing as how there are tons of Sugarloaf Mountains around the world, there is likely one around you. this is how they got their name. Sugarloafs were so common, they named a bunch of mountains after them. Now, the mountains remain, and sugar is much more convenient .

With the travel season dying down (for me), I'm already looking towards next year. I have a lots of ideas and a couple of projects in the works. Where will I go? Mostly to places I've never been.

An eastbound coal drag slows for the maze of crossovers at Gibbon Jct., Nebraska on a wonderful fall evening.
A shelf cloud approaches after dark as lightning strikes close by illuminating the grassy hill. The powerline poles tell the story as to just how low these clouds were on this evening.
On our way to the Audubon Sandhill Crane Migration Festival last March, the skies were very photogenic. Thanks again to jackaloha2 for his information on the festival. Texture by nkl.
