An unusual artefact from the late 19th Century in the village of Lustleigh on Dartmoor. At one time this finger post had another arm and the post was adorned with black and white hoops. Note the interesting finial. The remaining arm points to the hamlet of Rudge.
So here is the postman that collects the post from the postbox outside our village post office. He's not a member of the Blue Man Group ( no blue gloves) but has gone for the orange high viz vest over his red uniform fleece for his protection.
NUMBER 11 (ORIGINAL COLORED VERSION) of a series of short daily videos from THE WHALING CITY DUCK POND created and posted this SPRING, SUMMER - and beyond - as time and the weather allows.ENJOY! Most - if not all of them - should be no longer than a minute or two - give or take - and some of them could be much shorter than that - as a matter of fact!
This lump of stone is a one of many markers,(pretty much like the beacons in lord of the rings) each can be seen from far away, marking certain points in the surround area.
MOT, an intermediate service plus a bit of rebuild and bits for my rear brake caliper.. (Seems I don't use my brakes enough!) £300 plus!!
Ah well another year of Navi riding to come!! :)
Being able to relax, forget about work and distance yourself from reality is brilliant. Even though this guy would be a very happy dog to chill out on the streets of Korcula his expression is how I always seem to feel when I come back from a holiday. This one even more so

At this time the post office was housed in the Masonic Building at 107 S. Mays Street, and carriers delivered rural routes in two-wheeled "hacks." The carrier on the left is Bob Carlson, the other is unidentified.

TCU would lose the following day and be eliminated, but they were the only team to beat Florida in the 2017 CWS.
Game 12 of the 2017 College World Series featured perennial power TCU versus the eventual national champion, the Florida Gators. TCU won 9-2, but it would wind up being the Gators only loss en route to their first ever title. Alex Faedo, 1st round draft pick of the Detroit Tigers, was named tournament MVP after going 2-0 with 22 strikeouts and not giving up a run.

We had a nice bit of snow here in England and i missed loads of time off school which is always good, i took this at about 9:00 am with my E series 50mm Prime lens (which is AMAZING, really cheap, £40-£50, really sharp, just incredible)
I was really lucky that there was blue sky out, normally whens there's snow there's boring, overcast skies. :D

There had been plans to convert this former post office into a hostel, but they did not come to anything.

This is my "new" Nikon FG. I picked her up off Craigslist today. I needed an old school SLR that I wouldn't worry about using. As you will see, my Nikon FG-20 is too perfect to use!
