Pumpkin Patch

Maple Ridge, BC

Canada

This October scene caught my eye.

A young boy stops his bike overlooking the Pumpkin Farm.

Meanwhile a young lady is captured taking a photo of a pumpkin with her cell phone.

Her partner appears to be lost in thought.

Remnants of summer corn border the country property.

Thanks for viewing

Pre Happy Halloween,

There you have it Oliver. :-))

This barn appears to have been patched up many times over the years. The roof, the sides, the additions. It all makes for a unique look. The dusting of snow adds a nice touch as well!

The past few years I've been wanting to capture a pumpkin patch, but I always seem to be too late in the season. This time I got it! :) The one down the road--actually in Orting--was already gone, with NOTHING left!--but this one in McMillin is still in good shape, as you can see! They must've planted just a little later.

I just love the vibrant orange of the pumpkins...and I like the barns and the past-peak trees in the background. Hope you enjoy as well!

Selective focus on one bud on my Winter Gladioli which are providing much needed colour in the garden at the moment.

Spare a thought for Queensland again facing major flooding for the 3rd time this year. And at such a late stage in the year!

I'll be off for a couple of days so will hopefully be able to comment & respond to comments next week.

Having completed a brief stop after cresting the summit at Sand Patch, Pennsylvania, four second-generation geeps get a westbound pig train moving.

It is that time of year and the pumpkin patches are busy with families getting out to enjoy our lovely fall weather. I had to get out early yesterday to get a couple of shots before the crowds descended. Maan Farm Market, Abbotsford, B.C.

Both boxcars seen here are patched for Conrail. The white one is former LV while the other is obviously former NYC (thus former Penn Central).

These are cars I weathered and patched and I'm running them on a friend's railroad for his first-ever open house.

the other pumpkin patch -sans Penny Dreadful- but a murder of crows!

This weekend we were treated to patches of ice on Georgian Bay. The inner harbour had the large geometric ice shapes near the ships. This section of the harbour had these soft mounds of snow covering thin ice. By Friday, it will be all gone again.

Two images from a walk around local roads today.

Wheaton's parking deck was the place to be as a M-PRCB was heading for Proviso behind a patched C40-8 and a pure Chicago and North Western C44-9W.

UP eventually wiped the North Western off of the face of the Geneva Subdivision and today it is nothing but Union Pacific on the freights through here.

An eastbound Union Pacific coal train exits the Moffat Tunnel at East Portal, Colorado, on October 2, 2008. The lead locomotive is a former Chicago & North Western GE AC4400CW that is now patched and renumbered UP No. 6718. The strange off-center yellow patch and UP logo on the nose is allowing a peek at the famous C&NW ball and bar logo.

I only saw a single bordered patch butterfly, but it posed for me with both open and closed wings.

This is Patches. My neighbor’s greyhound and a rescued 2 year old. She’s had some problems but she’s coming along really good with two wonderful people working with her.
