with only three of these derivable and 2 restored to original ( the other is a motor home) I never thought I would see one of these, Gm is celebrating their 100th year anniversary and Flint being the birth place, they are bringing stuff out to show off. this is at the Sloan museum in Flint. Sloan was an early leader for General Motors, and later owned a plumbing business. for all you guys that use urinals the top valve is most likely a Sloan. this bus is soo cool!!!
Look at that! The insulation is finally all used up. It actually did all 4 shop walls. Next up is to move the Bridgeport into that far corner and install the power source. Either this weekend or next I'll have help to pull that 200 ft of wire... Can't wait.
African countries have made considerable progress in increasing agricultural productivity and reducing hunger, malnutrition, and poverty. But continued population growth, urbanization, changing diets, and climate change are putting pressure on food systems not only to provide more food but also to make more diverse and nutritious foods available and accessible. New digital technologies and services are already making an impact on how food is being produced, processed, marketed, traded, and consumed across the continent. How African countries position themselves to harness and deploy digital technologies will determine the future competitiveness of African agriculture and its contribution to African economies.
This seminar will explore how African countries can develop a “digitalization ecosystem” to help foster growth and competitiveness in the continent’s value chains. Participants will also discuss the institutional and policy innovations that have already been implemented by African governments as well as efforts by the private sector and ag-tech startups to increase the development and use of digital tools and services in agriculture.

This roundabout has been under construction for more than 14 months. It is approximately 65% complete.
Better days are ahead, at least for anyone who must go through this intersection on a daily basis.
Here is the pattern taped together and cut out for the basic outline. I then used masking tape to keep it in place as I drew the outline onto the foam.
(I've been organizing photos the past little bit and I realized I didn't finish explaining my keyblade construction process from a long time ago...so this is the rest of it now...)
Elevated patios, water features, retaining walls, firepit this job will have it all; will keep adding pictures as project develops
I took this of a sleeping gorilla at Animal Kingdom; he looked so peaceful; amongst the hundreds and thousands of people that peer and poke and prod at him at all hours of the day.

My tiny workshop.
All these pieces of jewelry I designed around the ages of the recipients and the available materials, mostly scrap and odd bits left over from previous projects. I only bought new silver for Isabella's bangle
American Progress was a famous engraving of the period and may have been triggered by the concept and chatter of Manifest Destiny.

These engravings in Crofutt’s Grip-Sack Guide Colorado were probably collected from any handy but divergent source but I expect that some were produced by engravers at Overland Publishing Company (or the Tribune) in Omaha, Nebraska. It is always possible that they worked from photos but it seems more likely that they were transcribed from verbal descriptions. You decide.
Colorado was fortunate to have George A. Crofutt tour the state not only once but twice in the era of early Colorado Statehood. The "Encyclopedia" was published once it 1881 and again in 1885 during the bustle of mining activity while agriculture and business hustled to catch up. The raw dreams in a new land spurred the interest in the state and made the Grip-Sack Guides sought-after information for folks in the settled lands to the east.
The Grip-Sack Guide claims to be a "Complete 1885 Encyclopedia." All in black ink on white paper. The result is that this is a fine snapshot of early Colorado life, real and inflated. Regardless, this is a wonderfully informative source to understanding early statehood and it is fortunately once again available.
