I did this climb at the end of May, but we're at such elevation now it's still pretty cold, shown by these patches of snow that still cling on in the folds and crevices of the mountains. I'm rounding the rise of Creagan a'Choire Etchachan to get my first view of Derry Cairngorm and the conditions that will decide if I push on further. Low clouds would make it dangerous as I'm here on my own and I know my limits!
Derry Cairngorm is my first Munro I have bagged this season, my 24th in total, and stands at 1155 meters (3789 feet). This trip sees me covering approximately 20 miles by Bike & Hike and gaining 2682 feet in elevation, after setting off from the Linn of Dee outside Braemar.
One of five of QGRY’s Mac’s that was purchased from BNSF (#4017) is the lead engine on QG 502 coming from CP’s St Luc yard, back to QGRY’s Ste-Therese yard, just north of Montreal.
A Juvenile Northern Flicker and I named this one for his obvious outcropping of white feathers. His two siblings have no such markings...He is sunning and preening in this instance....

Different color paint, rust and a duct tape patch parked on a side street quietly letting the shiny, fine vintage automobiles get all the attention. Patches dreams of an extreme makeover.

CSX C670-26 begins its assault of the “west slope” of. Sand Patch Grade just west of Meyersdale. This train would be powered by a duo of SD70MACs, the trailing of which looked reasonably fresh.

Weird double split on this one - haven't seen that before. Unusually there's also rubber still visible. I'm really interested in how rippled it became as it retracted.

This shot is unusual as it was taken midday. Most activity for almost any mammal is around dawn and dusk.
After 20 years of collecting patches (and taking photos) in spectacular places all over North America, from White Horse to Miami, the total has reached 120.
They're on display in our RV.
Nancy: -Hello I'm "Nancy in the city". You're sooo cute!
Patch: -Hehee... Hi! I'm Patch the Brave Knight. You look like Godzilla with your big legs and mini arms!
Nancy: -How rude!
Patch: -But it's a compliment! I love godzillas, I even have a baby one as a pet. He's over there -Yooohoo Zillo! Say Hi to Miss Nancy-, I'm teaching him how to chase asian hornets. They are a real threat to biodiversity, you see.
Nancy: -That's cool! What a great Brave Knight you are! Can you help me find the nearest city?
Patch: -I'm afraid I'm really bad at geography, Milady. But I can tell that you are on the famous DuDidier street, it goes from here to there, both inside and outside.
Nancy: -Ah. I think I heard that already.
Patch: -I love your outfit! It would look great on Zillo. Can I borrow it sometime?
Nancy: -¡absolutamente no!

I'm so fond of Patch the Brave Knight that I can't bring myself to change her outfit. I might need another Patch who will be wearing it all the time (and possibly build an army of brave knights lol). After all we never know when we'll need the help of a Brave Knight.
The girls were playing outside amongst the flowers one late afternoon. They looked so adorable in their flowery dresses, that Veronica, Patch's mum, abandoned the dishes and went out with the camera.
Mum: Girls!
Patch: Yes mum?
Pepper: Yes Mrs Wetherby!
Mum: I only have one photo left on this film. *Holding up the camera.* So please stand still and smile for me.
Patch: Will do.
Pepper: Of course Mrs Wetherby.
They lined up and just as Veronica hit the button, Patch went topsy-turvy.
Mum: Oh Patch!
Patch: Did you get it? Did you get it?! *Excited*
Pepper: Haha, bravo! I wish I could do that.
Mum: *sigh* Yes my little rascal, I got it. But I do want to get your pretty little face in a photo at some point.
Patch: Sure mum. I smiled though. Pepper, I will teach you how to do it, but it takes all you got and you will get dirty.
Pepper: Smashing!

Pepper is trying so hard to become as mischievous as Patch, but she has a long way to go.

43172 'Harry Patch' running back to back power cars with 43097 seen at Parsons tunnel with the 0A89 1128 St Phillips Marsh HST depot - Laira 27/10/18. (Taken using a couple of sections of the pole)
CSX SD50 #8640 is pictured at Sand Patch on October 20th 1988, in fall color. No photographer listed, JL Sessa collection.
Patch and I were enjoying the relaxing sounds of a light rain. (Heavy rain and she's hiding under furniture!)
Playing with a new camera I got from my son. A little Canon EOS M3 mirrorless body and interchangeable lenses. Manual functions. I need to get a viewfinder for it though...not one to look at a screen to take a shot.
Thanks for taking a look
