This station is a delight, with a great vantage point from the nearby bridge. Even without a train it is a lovely view, but of course, I have photos of it with trains to follow in time! Once a stop on the Ruabon to Barmouth line, the station closed permanently in 1964 after flooding, it was due to close in 1965 anyway. The line was dormant for about thirty years until the Llangollen Railway, one of the country's best preserved railways, opened in 1996.

First permanent establishments
In 1635, the first seigneurie was granted on the territory of Cape-Rouge, but revoked the following year by the Company of One Hundred Associates. However, by 1638 Paul Le Jeune, a missionary Jesuit, had noted in The Jesuit Relations the presence of some families in the valley.[1] Between 1647 and 1652, the seigneuries of Maur, on the west, and Gaudarville, in the east, were established on the territory. From that moment, based on taxable citizens, the settlement on the lands of Cap-Rouge are established. The village formed is served by the parishes of Ancienne-Lorette in (1678) to the north; of Saint-Augustin in (1691) on the west; and of Sainte-Foy (1698) in the east.
Geography
The beach of Plage Jacques Cartier and the cliffs of Cap-Rouge.
The name of Cap-Rouge, meaning "red cape", comes from its cliffs facing the Saint-Lawrence river and made of schist rock bearing a reddish tint. The other main topographic feature of Cap-Rouge is the Rivière du Cap Rouge valley where are concentrated some historic buildings as well the archeological remains of a pottery workshop active from 1860 to 1892. It is believed that until the end of its operations the workshop mainly used imported clay rather than the local one, which has a rather red hue.
The Cap-Rouge area is located to the south of the Canadian Shield and Laurentian Mountains, at the confluence of the geological regions of the Saint Lawrence Lowlands and of the northern Appalachians. It mostly sits at the western foot of the Quebec promontory, in the way of the Logan's Line - an inactive fracture in the Earth's crust first documented by Sir William Edmond Logan.
Il love our fluffy Buff-tailed Bumblebees. When I look at them from the window (i.e. some distance from the tree), I can see that they take all their time on each flower but if I get close with my camera, they start hurrying from one flower to the next and getting a clear capture is almost impossible. Being stubborn, I keep trying, though and it's always a challenge :) /
J'adore les Bourdons terrestres. Lorsque je les regarde depuis la fenetre, c'est a dire a quelque distance de l'Arbre aux Papillons, je peux voir qu'ils prennent tout leur temps pour butiner chaque fleur mais si je m'approche avec mon appareil photo, ils passent a toute allure d'une fleur a l'autre et il est presque impossible d'en prendre une image claire. Cependant, comme je suis quelqu'un de tetu, je continue d'essayer et c'est devenu mon defi permanent :) !
i discovered the Urban Light Sculpture at LACMA, a permanent outdoor exhibit that features 202 antique cast-iron street lights from various cities in Los Angeles, about a year ago and fell in love with it.
the good: it's just a 2 minute drive from my house and i love spending time there
the bad: once you've shot it a few times, there isn't a whole lot more you can do with it.

The first permanent photograph was an image produced in 1826 by the French inventor Nicéphore Niépce on a polished pewter plate covered with a petroleum derivative called bitumen of Judea. Produced with a camera, the image required an eight-hour exposure in bright sunshine.

This photo was taken on one of my favorite places on the Blueridge Parkway. You have to walk up to this spot, because there are no places to park. If you find this spot be careful on your walk, everyone is looking at the beautiful scenery and not the road.
Offshore Magheroarty, County Donegal, Ireland
This little island of Inishbofin, meaning (Island of the white cow) lays just off-shore Magheroarty Beach. Only 100 years ago there were 150 permanent inhabitants living here but today there is only an estimated 36 islanders. Inishbofin has no shops, pubs or hotels etc so all supplies needed to survive are brought over from the mainland by boat.
But what this island lacks in modernism, it certainly makes up for in nature by having 2 stunning sandy cove beaches side by side. Plus lets not forget that 360 degree view that can be obtained from anywhere on this island which overlooks Donegal’s majestic shore & islands. These 2 smaller nearby islands are ‘Inishdooey’ & ‘Carrickirragh’. Sadly both are totally uninhabited today. On the distant horizon can be seen the larger populated 'Tory Island'.
Do you ever just wish to escape this ever-advancing, overpopulating world we are forced to adapt within & simply walk alone across an island like this with no mobile phones or traffic in sight? I have said it before & I will say it again... "I would happily move to any of these islands today if I could" Someday I will do it

Delivered to Air Canada in Jul-68 as CF-TJZ, it became C-FTJZ in May-74 when Canada also introduced the C-Gxxx registration series. It was retired and stored at Marana, AZ, USA, in Jan-83.
In Jul-85 it was sold to United Aviation Services Inc and leased to Eagle Air, Iceland, as TF-ISA. It was sub-leased to Air Algerie on Haj Pilgrimage flights between late Jul/Sep-85 and again between early Jul/Sep-86. It was returned to United Aviation Services in Nov-86 and stored.
In Mar-87 it was re-registered N48UA, sold to a 'Michael A Meagher' and leased back to United Aviation Services. In Aug-91 it was sold to Wilmington Trust Company and leased back to UAS Engineering Inc. It was returned to Wilmington Trust in Jan-92 and re-registered N161DB in Jul-92.
In Nov-92, after spending most of the previous six years on the ground, it was leased to Buffalo Airways (not the Canadian 'Ice Pilots' one) and sub-leased to Aeropostal Venezuela the following month, returning to Buffalo Airways in Jun-93. It was sub-leased to Translift Airways, Ireland, between Jun/Sep-93.
By Mar-94 it has been converted into a freighter with a main-deck cargo door. It was stored at Miami, FL, USA, in Dec-95. It was sold to another couple of lessors during Dec-95 and remained stored until it was leased to Florida West Airlines in Jun-96.

The aircraft was permanently retired at Sao Paulo-Viracopos (date unknown) and was last noted still at Viracopos in Aug-14 in very dirty condition.
I make her wear one of 4 maid uniforms she has, all day, every single day of the week - 7 days a week:
"My Wife decided i had no value in life and no skills, so she made changes to me to be sure i could be worth something to somebody rather than just a total failure at everything. She taught me i am best suited to be a housekeeping maid. She trained me to clean houses and told me i must look the part so people will always know anywhere, my purpose and the only way i am useful to anyone daily".
I have a couple of these I'm going to post. I think.
"They did not so much seem to stare right through things as to stare past the present state of the world into a world that was permanently in the distance for them and at the same time more immediate than the present." I came across that line today while reading Snow Falling On Cedars (David Guterson) and I liked it so much that I wrote it down. That guy's a crazy good writer.

Korcho, Ethiopie.
Le village de Korcho qui abrite quelques dizaines d'hommes et femmes de l'ethnie Karo est installé dans un magnifique paysage surplombant une boucle de la vallée de l'Omo.
Au nombre de quelques centaines seulement les Karo constituent la seule ethnie sédentaire de la vallé de l'Omo. Les Karo sont réputés pour leurs peintures corporelles.
Les Karos entretiennet des relations amicales et symbiotiques avec les tribus voisines Hamar , Banna , Dassanetch et Arbore, qui leur sont vaguement apparentées. Cependant, ils entretiennent une animosité permanente avec les Mursi et les Nyangatom : les Nyangatom vivent de l'autre côté de la rivière Omo , occupant un territoire que les Karo revendiquent, et les escarmouches sanglantes ne sont pas rares.
Pour cette raison, et pour la protection des troupeaux, chaque jeune homme doit posséder une Kalashnikov avant de pouvoir se marier. On attend de lui qu'il démontre sa capacité à protéger son village, sa famille et le troupeau qui représente sa richesse.
The pharmacy just closed recently. I had a picture of the sign at the window, but it was too blurry to even make out.
Originally opened on November 16, 1992. This store is slated to close permanently in early 2017.
On 20th August 1944 during the Warsaw Uprising, Polish partisans stormed and captured the larger of the two buildings that made up Warsaw's Central Telephone Exchange, which was known as the PAST-a (short for "Polska Akcyjna Spółka Telefoniczna"). This was one of the most significant battles of the uprising and much of it was captured on film....

LOL @ the permanently posed bodies and ratchet wigs :s
While I definitely would have preferred some of these details on the final dolls' outfits, let's be honest; These days, you're never going to see a $20 playline doll with details like this, ever, from any company :P Anyways, I wonder when these are from! I know this line has been in the works for at least a year, but Idk when they started making the protos. I'm pretty sure the prototype clips from this video were all from the sizzle shown at Toy Fair :o Obviously, they're not the ones we saw in May...
Y'all can view this in "Original" size to see all the details :)
Stagecoach Highlands Volvo B8RLE MCV eVoRa SJ72 HNN (Fleet Number 21398) is pictured leaving Inverness Bus Station with a service on route 26 towards Cromarty.
This vehicle wears the Stagecoach Orkney Islands livery as it was initially delivered to Orkney as an additional bus with a specific feature that their existing batch of eVoRas did not provide. However since mid-March it has been running Inverness-based services. Is it just on long-term loan or is it a permanent transfer like the 71-reg Optare Solo SR that looked like a loan for a while and was then eventually repainted. Will we see this one repainted into Local and stay with Inverness? Or will it eventually head back up to Orkney? If anyone knows please inform me in the comments!

A Permanent exhibit of modern art greets visitors to the historic Tower of London, just outside Tower Hill Station : since 2001, the Tower Hill Underpass in the City of London has been ablaze with vibrant expressionist paintings by artist Stephen B. Whatley.
Stephen B Whatley was commissioned in 1999 to create the series of 30 paintings ( all oil on canvas; ranging from 30 x 40in to 40 x 90in in size) most of which were painted on location, in and around The Tower. A momentous feat the paintings - depicting the history and sites - were complete within the first 8 months of 2000.
The artist has a history of public art commissions, including paintings commissioned to promote Buckingham Palace & the BBC.
The original works of art are held within The Tower and in 2001 the entire series of 30 paintings were reproduced as a permanent public London exhibit , on steel vitreous enamel panels that line the walkway above.
In 2004, following the completion of further refurbishments around The Tower, Stephen B Whatley was amongst the designers and architects presented to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, at a reception in The Banqueting Hall, within the walls of The Tower; at which all 30 original paintings were on show.
Whatley's work, which has been published in TIME magazine is in private collections worldwide; in public collections including BBC Heritage, The Royal Collection, London Transport Museum Newman University & Westminster Cathedral.
Megan (one of my best and closest friends) and I got these last night for our mutual love of the book "The Perks of Being A Wallflower." We planned on individually getting them, but when we found out the other wanted it as well, we decided to get them together. Since I'm broke, Megan was oh so kind enough to make this my early birthday/Christmas present!
(Mine is the wrist one, fyi)

CA: El servei de Barcelona a Sevilla per València ha sofert múltiples canvis de material en els últims anys. Des del 2010, s'han succeït cotxes Arco, S/490, Talgo VI, S/130 i ara S/121 a banda d'algun altre material esporàdic. Així doncs, des del 5 d'octubre, els S/121 han estat assignats a aquest servei de manera suposadament temporal, a l'espera que s'hi destinin S/120. A més, amb aquest canvi, s'ha oficialitzat de manera més clara el desviament del servei via Camp de Tarragona i també ha passat a circular per la línia d'alta velocitat entre Sevilla i Alcolea de Córdoba.
ES: El servicio de Barcelona a Sevilla vía Valencia ha cambiado de material varias veces en los últimos años. Desde el 2010, se han sucedido coches Arco, S/490, Talgo VI, S/130 y ahora S/121 a parte de otro material esporádicamente. Así pues, des del 5 de octubre, los S/121 están asignados a este servicio supuestamente de modo temporal, a la espera que sean sustituidos por S/120 dentro de algunos meses. Además, este cambio ha oficializado de un modo más claro el desvío del tren vía Camp de Tarragona y también ha pasado a utilizar la línea de alta velocidad entre Sevilla y Alcolea de Córdoba.
EN: The InterCity service from Barcelona to Seville via Valencia has used several types of rolling stock in the last years: Arco coaches, class 490, Talgo VI trainsets, class 130 and class 121 since the 5th of October. However, it might only be a temporal change as class S/120 trains are supposed to replace the class S/121 from this service. In addition, this service has been diverted to the high speed line between Seville and Alcolea de Córdoba reducing the journey time.

During the COVID years, a secondary MRL Missoula dispatching center was set up at Taylor St, across town from the permanent office inside the General Office Building. The backup office was used continuously for about a year, with the East and West desks working out of Taylor St, and the Assistant Chief and District 3 desks remaining at the GOB. The thought was that if someone came down with COVID, then the entire dispatch staff wouldn't all be exposed at once. The office was still used sporadically after that first year when it was necessary or if someone at the GOB got sick.
The office was set up in what had been Denny Washington's personal office back in the 1990s, and it was still decked out in a style that would've made Robin Leach proud. Apparently a gold colored toilet was removed from the bathroom right before we started working there. We were absolutely not allowed on Denny's golden toilet. The dispatchers nicknamed Taylor the, "Boom Boom Room", with thoughts of what may have gone on there in years past.
Dispatching desks were cobbled together from old office furniture, card tables, and ancient lap tops. The best part of working at Taylor was that it was largely unsupervised, and sat right next to the main line. We usually left the door unlocked, if not propped completely open, and occasionally someone would just wander in off the street. Trains went by right out the window and random strangers would just pop in. It was like being back in 1975. Nobody watching over us, no security, no cameras, but somehow we managed to still do our jobs safely. Amazing concept.
On this particular day, the GOB office was completely closed and District 3 was combined into the East and West desks, as there were only two work stations for dispatchers at Taylor. I owned 2nd Trick District 3 at the time, and even though I couldn't do anything, I was still required to show up for my shift. "If you're getting paid, you're going to show up". So show up I did, and I spent the shift taking photos, as well as buying Taco Bell for the rest of the office. In the photo, Jesse Miller has control of the west end of the railroad, and Max Hausauer works as the Assistant Chief. The East desk is beyond the divider to the right.
This is a reworked image I posted some time ago. I have been re-editing photos to put on Viewbug, and it's easier for me to upload from Flickr than from my computer, so all of the reworked, resized, and higher dpi images are being uploaded here first. If they look familiar, they are! I hope you still enjoy them!
