This evenings view in Hatchers Pass on the Little Susitna River. The cabins are remnants from a past lodge near this spot.
the present cross-shaped church was built in 1759.It is the only cruciform church in the Nordfjord district,and there are very few in western Norway.A building of this shape resists strong winds.
The ground floor of the church comprises five squares for-ming a greek cross; the seating is arranged so that the aisles form a Roman cross.The pews are in boxes , each with a door,giving the church a special character. Each farm had its own box pew, and some doors bear the family "mark" or initials.Some of the carved doors and jambs are made from timber taken from the stave church.
The eastern arm of the cross forms the chancel and is separated from the nave by a screen characteristic of churches of the middle ages. the exterior, wooden walls are painted white whereas the inside walls are unpainted.

33203 climbs away from Salisbury on Christmas Eve 1986 with the 0650 Waterloo to Exeter St Davids service.
In October 1986 I had bought my first SLR camera and two months later, putting it politely, I was still very much getting to grips with it.
On Christmas Eve I was aimed to capture some images of class 33s and 50s at Salisbury, which operated virtually all passenger trains at Salisbury then.
What I hadn't bothered with was the weather forecast, which combined the saying 'red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning' and the photographer's saying of 'f4 at a fortnight'. A heavy overnight frost was about to be obliterated by a blanket of cloud rolling in from the west.
Out I trotted and this photograph was the closest I came to any sun on a train that day. Everything else was hopelessly composed, dark or speed-blurred, or sometimes all three.
However, 34 years on, it is now clear the day wasn't a complete write-off: this image has reacted well to the wonders of today's photo-processing, and a reasonable image has finally appeared, 34 years after I took the original photograph.

Nemoptera bipennis, también conocida como duende, es una especie de insecto neuróptero de la familia Nemopteridae endémico de la península ibérica, del sur de Francia y también citada en Marruecos. Es una especie de hábitos diurnos que en su fase adulta se alimenta de polen. Presenta antenas filiformes.
Quaglietta (AV)
The history of Quaglietta begins when, to stop the Saracen incursions in the Sele Valley, it was decided to build 3 fortresses: Valva, Senerchia and Quaglietta, (which however at the time was called castrum Quallectae).
The first settlement was therefore a military fortress built on a rocky spur (284 m above sea level) to which a village was added over time.
The name has nothing to do with quails as many believe but with the ancient Latin name of the area or Acque electe which translates as pure water and refers to the richness and purity of the waters that flow in the area.
Although the town is closely linked to the municipalities of the Sele Valley belonging to the province of Salerno, it is part of the province of Avellino and is a fraction of the municipality of Calabritto.
The 1980 earthquake hit this town hard but it was renovated with great attention and today the ancient medieval village retains its ancient splendor and is a tourist attraction.
La storia di Quaglietta inizia quando per frenare le incursioni di saraceni nella Valle del Sele fu decisa la costruzione delle 3 fortezze: Valva, Senerchia e Quaglietta, (che però all'epoca si chiamava castrum Quallectae) .
------------------------------
Il primo insediamento fu quindi una fortezza militare costruita su uno sperone roccioso (284 m sul livello del mare) a cui nel tempo si aggiunse un borgo.
Il nome non ha nulla a che fare con le quaglie come in molti credono ma con l'antico nome latino della zona ovvero Acque electe la cui traduzione è acqua pura e fa riferimento alla ricchezza e purezza delle acque che sgorgano in zona.
Pur essendo il paese strettamente legato ai comuni della Valle del Sele appartenenti alla provincia di Salerno fa parte della provincia di Avellino ed è una frazione del comune di Calabritto.
Il terremoto del 1980 ha colpito duramente questo paese che però è stato ristrutturato con grande attenzione e oggi l'antico borgo medievale conserva l'antico splendore ed è una attrazione turistica.
The Origaliens have left, but they gave us this precious present.
"Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today it is a gift.
That's why it is called
The present"
Quote - Alice Morse Earle
The present church was built after the fire of 1844. It exhibits a neoclassical construction, decorated with one of the largest organ in South America, a large lamp of Sevillian origin, a French neo-Gothic pulpit, Carrara marbles and wood carving. It is also one of the 70 churches in the world authorized to display the banner of the Vatican.
Because of good behavior during the holidays, Benny gets a present from Mummy Marian.
ME:
Benny?
I have something for you
BENNY:
Wow....a present....for me?????
ME:
Yes Benny..it's just for you
Because you've been so sweet during the holidays.
I know it is very difficult for you to share something when it comes to something delicious. I've seen you can do it and I'm proud of you. So this is all for you... just open the package.
Benny tears off the paper:
BENNY:
WOW!!! Mummy! That's a big one! It has more than 3 layers!
Thank you Mummy.....I love you so much!!!!
May I also give Jago a piece?
ME:
You decide Benny...it's your pastry!
BENNY:
I love Jago very much...he is my best friend and that's why he gets half of the pastry.
ME:
Well Benny...that's really nice of you.
I think Jago likes it too

SNCF 26072, Montbartier (ligne Toulouse - Montauban), 15 Juin 2021.
Le soleil vient tout juste de se lever sur Montbartier lorsque se présente la 26072 en tête de ses 14 voitures formant le premier IC pour Paris de la journée, parti de Toulouse quelques minutes plus tôt. C'est un des trois derniers trains conventionnels diurnes qui parcourent encore le POLT de bout en bout en cette année 2021.
Papillon très présent en ce moment, reconnaissable à cette bande claire sous l'aile postérieur, il est très difficile de l'observer les ailes ouvertes, et dans ce cas nous pouvons constater un dimorphisme sexuel, le dessus du mâle est uniformément marron clair avec un ocelle noir centré de blanc à l'apex de l'aile antérieure, alors que la femelle présente une plage fauve plus ou moins étendue autour de cet ocelle.
Butterfly very present at the moment, recognizable by this clear band under the hind wing, it is very difficult to observe it with the wings open, and in this case we can see a sexual dimorphism, the top of the male is uniformly light brown with a black ocelle centered in white at the apex of the forewing, while the female has a more or less wide fawn area around this ocelle.

A wonderful weekend to you all :) !!
Atardecer en el Rio Tecolutla
Ecoturismo En la Costa Esmeralda.[editar]
Tecolutla, al norte de la Costa Esmeralda, presenta más de 800 hectáreas de verdes manglares donde puedes disfrutar de paseos en lancha a lugares como la cueva del pirata, el Salón del silencio o el Estero de la mojarra. Tendrás oportunidad de apreciar especies endémicas y migratorias; y de igual manera disfrutar de una rica nieve. El Campamento tortuguero Vida Milenaria es un orgullo de Tecolutla y de la Costa Esmeralda, pues de las ocho especies de tortugas marinas que hay en el mundo, tres son protegidas por Vida Milenaria: La Lora, La Verde y La Carey.
Fue una población prehispánica totonaca, la cual se le denominó "Tecolotlán", que significa lugar de tecolotes o búhos. En 1522, la flota de Juan de Grijalva descubrió el río Tecolutla y empezó la evangelización e introducción del idioma español. Después, en 1810, desde la actual zona de Papantla se promueve el movimiento independentista. Durante la Guerra de Independencia el poblado fue utilizado para fines de desembarque de armas para el ejército de los Insurgentes. Más tarde, en 1824, se expidió el acta constitutiva de la Federación, que creó el Estado de Veracruz, y Tecolutla terminó siendo un poblado bajo la jurisdicción de la provincia de Papantla. En el año de 1837, se habilita como Aduana de cabotaje Federal; y en 1838, ante la declaración del bloqueo por la fuerza naval francesa, el gobierno mexicano declaró que quedaban abiertos para el comercio exterior, entre otros puertos, el de Tecolutla. En 1897 se crea el municipio del mismo nombre. Cabe mencionar que en 1942, los buques tanque "El Tuxpan" y "Las Chopas" se vieron en la necesidad de naufragar como consecuencia de unos explosivos

**Il faut rajouter de la vie aux années et non des années à la vie.
Le temps n'est pas maître de notre destin, il n'en est que le comptable.
Aujourd'hui, tout ralentissement équivaut à un recul: l'humanité est condamnée au progrès à perpétuité :-(
Le moment présent à un avantage sur tous les autres: il nous appartient!
Nous avons mieux à faire dans la vie que d'en accélérer le rythme.
Il est des pensées qui, comme certaines fleurs, doivent se respirer lentement en osant prendre le temps de ralentir le temps.
De temps en temps, il faut faire une pause pour permettre à notre âme de nous rejoindre.

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE – ELVIS PRESLEY
Sometimes in life we come full circle
I see a footprint of my beginning
and here I am back at the start
I see the people who tried to stop me winning
but I rise above them; and leave them far behind
I draw a line in shifting, whispering grains of sand
and something deep inside me drives me on
no looking back; I am complete; I understand
sometimes in life we cannot win them over
it's not our job; it's for a greater Hand
and He will guide me on my journey
bring me safely to the shore
where angels sing; rejoice and hold me
and I will not be frightened any more
He sees in us the pain; the human burden
He sees the weight that life and people bring
He knows how much; He knows and He is certain
He will not give us more than we can take
so that in our hearts and souls we'll always sing
and when at last our cup is brimming over
He lays his Hand upon our heads and soothes our brow
and we feel the greatest love that ever found us
and we are comforted and lighter; it is a miracle somehow
and once more we are peaceful
finding joy in simple things
as darkness; shadows and all our plights
are left behind and taken care of;
whisked away on angel's wings
and soon the lines of strain are smoothed; not furrowed
as clouds reveal the stars of wonder and ethereal light
and we begin to live at last the ever after; forget tomorrow
this moment we exist; and in this moment
I am complete; I am content right here, right now.

Pretty papers all wrapped with care.
