The final lesson of week 8 in "Mermaid Circus" involved learning a little figure drawing along with getting aquainted with a new type of watercolor medium (for me at least), Peerless. The are the original brand developed in the late 1800's for use in tinting black and white photos. they come in a concentrated dye on a sheet of paper and are super portable and richly beautiful. The "Tsunami Sisters" are characters created by Jane Davenport for the lesson, and I did my best to copy while still adding my own flair. The watercolor tsunami was my own design, as a place to play some more with the new colors and also to write the story of the sisters to create a double page spread.

Some of the mechanics of the projector used by the Kolb Brothers in their studio at the Grand Canyon. They used this projector from 1915 to the 1960s to show their famous movie, "Through the Grand Canyon from Wyoming to Mexico."

Take note of the passenger doors that curve up into the roof, giving extra room for entry and exit.
This Peerless prototype is all original and has spent its whole life either in storage at the former Peerless factory or on display in the Crawford Auto Museum in Cleveland.

A racing mechanic with considerable experience of spaceframe construction, Bernie Rodger was approached by John Gordon (later of Gordon-Keeble fame) and James Byrnes to built the prototype of a new 2+2 sports saloon: the Warwick. Noteworthy features of this very pretty Italianate GT included leaf-sprung De Dion rear suspension and the Triumph TR3 2.0-litre engine, overdrive gearbox, and front suspension, including its disc brakes. By the time production began in 1958 the car had been renamed 'Peerless', while bodies were now of glassfibre construction instead of the prototype's aluminium panelling. A very capable car, the Peerless had room for a family and its luggage, was good for a top speed of more than 110mph (177km/h) and cost a relatively affordable £1,500. Unfortunately for Peerless, this was approximately the price of a Jaguar 2.4-litre saloon...
In 1958 a solitary Peerless started the Le Mans 24 Hour Race; the only four-seater in the field, it finished in a highly creditable 16th place overall. Despite a favourable reception and the valuable publicity gained from its Le Mans exploits, Peerless was soon in financial difficulty and production ceased in 1960 after an estimated 325 cars had been made. Bernie Rodger then revived the design in improved form as the Warwick, but by the end of 1961 this too had gone. However, that was not quite the end of the Peerless saga; John Gordon and Jim Keeble then took the concept a stage further, fitting a Chevrolet V8 engine into a Peerless-type chassis to create the Bertone-styled Gordon-Keeble of 1964.
One of only 70 made in left-hand drive configuration, this ultra-rare Peerless GT has a race-prepared Triumph TR3 engine producing 100bhp and is eligible for the Le Mans Classic and Goodwood Revival events among others. Described by the vendor, a Belgian private collector, as in generally good condition with original interior, this restored car is offered with Belgian Carte Grise (Oldtimer) and Contrôle Technique.
Used on a DR walk behind mower. Rebuilding it after about 3500hrs, the reverse chain broke so I figured might as well go through the rest
A Southern Freight charges past the old Peerless Woolen Mills complex and through the grade crossing at McFarland Ave. in downtown Rossville, GA. Providing the power this day are Southern Railway Locomotives #s 630 and 4501.
Built in the early 20th century, the million square foot Peerless Mills complex was an active textile manufacturing site until the mid-1960s, employing as many as 3,000 people. The dormant factory complex is now quite run-down and has recently been auctioned for less than the cost of a small house. Although renovations and hazard remediation would certainly cost a fortune, here's hoping that the new owners can somehow find a way to preserve this important piece of the city's manufacturing history....and a great prop for a railroad photo!

This motorcycle was used on the Brooklands Outer Circuit by E.J. 'Boy' Tubb until the closure of the Track in 1939. With it he won his 'Gold Star' with a race lap of 102mph. One of only six models made.

Great Unconformity in Colorado, USA
Light-colored rocks at top = Manitou Limestone
Dark-colored sandstone = Peerless Formation
Light-colored sandstone = Sawatch Sandstone
Pinkish rocks just above road level = Pikes Peak Granite
The rock record does not completely document Earth's history. In stratigraphic sections, missing time is represented by unconformities - surfaces of erosion and/or non-deposition of sediments. There are four types of unconformities: paraconformities, disconformities, nonconformities, and angular unconformities.
Seen here is the Precambrian-Cambrian unconformity at Manitou Springs, Colorado. The slightly tilted layers in the upper part of the photo (click to zoom in) are Ordovician and Cambrian sedimentary rocks. The underlying, non-layered, pinkish-colored rocks just above road level are part of the Pikes Peak Granite. About one-half a billion years is missing at the contact. Erosion surfaces such as this that have sedimentary rocks over igneous rocks are called nonconformities.
This contact is a megasequence boundary - the base of the Sauk Megasequence. Regionally recognizable packages of sedimentary rocks bounded by major unconformities are known as megasquences, or Sloss sequences (named after geologist L.L. Sloss, 1913-1996). The bounding unconformities were caused by erosion during regressions. Continental margins have more complete sedimentary successions, whereas craton interiors have more incomplete successions. The names for North America's megasequences are (from oldest to youngest): Sauk, Tippecanoe, Kaskaskia, Absaroka, Zuni, and Tejas.
Stratigraphy: Manitou Limestone (Lower Ordovician) over Peerless Formation (Upper Cambrian) over Sawatch Sandstone (Upper Cambrian) over Pikes Peak Batholith (late Mesoproterozoic, 1.08 Ga)
