Somewhat inspired by Dominic Bugatto's stuff. One from awhile ago but the tale is in the processing.

Title: Crossing to the Battle of Blue Licks
Dated: 1943
Over the 48 hours we had on the island, we had around 5 minutes of quality light in the sky, and these are the best I managed in a brief & frantic scramble.
The composition isn't great here, and the pose isn't quite ideal, but it's unusual and that has to count for something.

I am trying out some ideas for a project I am working on ......
The numbered posts along the auto route make for the perfect launch point for the low hovering Harriers to hunt from.
I like the way the lichen has grown on this concrete post. One might think that it would be an entirely inhospitable environment - but not so.

The Philippine Post Office Building, the center of Philippine postal services and the headquarters of the then-Bureau of Posts, was completed in its present-day Neo-Classical style in 1926, it was destroyed during World War II. It was rebuilt in 1946, after the war.
This image is based on an actual vehicle modelled by Oxford Diecast but with added Post Office crown. It depicts an interesting use for a war-surplus Bedford truck. The QLT was the troop-carrying variant of the Bedford QL range and featured a longer body than the more common general service version. In the early post-war years, Post Office Telephones operated a large fleet of former military vehicles. In the case of the QLT, its all-wheel drive be would have been ideal for linesmen engaged in infrastructure away from surfaced roads (updated 04-Aug-24).

Bricks Cascade 2017 recap time!
First off, the general convention vibe was great. Compared to BrickCon, there was a lot more floor space, and yet the Technic section managed to be one of the most packed themes there. Everyone was quite welcoming, and new friends were made (always a plus)!
As for models, both the Koenigsegg and the Subarute were received very well. My last parts for the Subarute showed up on Saturday at 12:30ish, so I had to frantically build for a few hours to get the model to where it is now. Thankfully, it got done before Sunday's public hours, where it received quite a bit of attention. The Koenigsegg, of course, received it's usual "KOENIGSEGG!!!" and "Is that a Ferrari/Lamborghini/Saleen S5?" comments, and it was great seeing faces light up when I'd open the doors. The One:1 also won the award "Technic-al Achievement", which came with the Cargo Plane set you see in the photo (Convention organizers take note: trophies are better when they come with a set!).
On the topic of sets, I picked up two copies of 42063 while making a LEGO store run, along with the Claas tractor, which I and two other Technic builders drafted out (hence the big ziploc of Technic pieces). Off-screen are also two small boxes of system pieces that I'll need to sort through....
...which brings me to my next point. Everything in the picture (plus the two boxes of system and the Binary Clock model that's collecting dust) needs to be disassembled and sorted before I start my next model. Of course, I'm keeping the trophy intact, and I've got fairly accurate LDD models of both the Koenigsegg and the Subarute in the event that I need to rebuild them. The only thing is, my current LEGO sorting setup is already at the overflow point, and that's without the Koenigsegg and Subaru BrickLink orders (let alone the 3 sets and heaps of bulk). Guess it's time to buy some more storage containers!
Overall, Bricks Cascade was an absolute blast. It's great to finally go to a convention that's 20 minutes from home rather than 3.5 hours away, and the friendly environment made me feel quite at home. Plus, who can say no to free LEGO?

Il paesino, la Chiesa, il Posto Telefonico Pubblico. Pochi anni fa, il mondo di quasi tutti; ora, il mondo di quasi nessuno.
Il Posto di Telefonia Pubblica (PTP) ha da sempre rappresentato un servizio importantissimo a causa della bassa diffusione del telefono nelle abitazioni. Fino all'arrivo del cellulare era l'unico mezzo di comunicazione a disposizione se si era fuori casa. Davanti a un telefono pubblico si accettava anche di fare lunghe code pur di riuscire a fissare appuntamenti, aggiornare i familiari sui propri spostamenti o tenersi in contatto dai posti di villeggiatura. Le insegne venivano installate sul muro presso i bar a parete verticale o sopra le cabine telefoniche.
