New Year's Resolution No. #1 is to finish this quilt! My goal is to have it complete by March 1st~just in time to back it with a print from the re-release of FMF. See, there is a method to my madness.
They call it progress but I feel sad each time I see these structures being built. All the orchards and farms are all gone and the population has gone up from 40, 000 to more that 200, 000 in 35 years that we've been here. The farmer across the street from our house used to let me go and help myself to whatever he had growing. The farmer passed away and the family sold the farm and became residential houses not too long after.
I'd been thinking about another trip to this part of Felixstowe for a while but had been waiting for tide, sunset and weather to all get along nicely together. The opportunity arose last night when it finally stopped raining so Parrish and I headed down there on a very last minute trip.
I spent most of my time trying to avoid getting the docks in the frame but as all the cloud had moved in that direction I finally gave up and composed a couple of shots to include the docks... they were my favourites of the night!

R5632. In 1955 some members of the Festiniog Railway Society living in the London area formed the London Area Group of the Society to provide support for the North Wales 2ft gauge Ffestiniog Railway.
In 1976 the Group 'came of age' and a special train was organised to celebrate 21 years of working parties from London together with fund raising, homework and publicity activities. The deviation to circumnavigate the reservoir flooding the line in conjunction with the Tanygrisiau Pumped Storage Scheme was under construction at the time and the train, hauled by the First World War Alco 2-6-2T MOUNTAINEER, ran to the then 'head of steel' just in front of the work in progress New Moelwyn Tunnel.
This is the train prior to its departure from Porthmadog Harbour station.

On my way home today I drove part of the Blue Ridge Parkway. This is the spill over for the lake/ pond along the Otter Creek. I was here in 2005 and took pictures then too and at the time i couldn't do slow shutter water shots to well. I am kind of proud with my progress.
hope every one has a great weekend!!!!
Inglewood Point. Lighthouse by Culprit. Anyone else still have a love for 'old fashioned' builds? I love mesh and sculpts had their time - but sometimes I just love the clean edges of a prim. This house might have some mesh to it - I'm not sure - but I love it's SL circa 2010 look :)
iPhone shot a couple of days ago of my antique restoration project. Spring is here and the landscaping has started, Between that and the sanding I am getting muscles like I've never had :-). much better on black
I kinda liked this idea but am not so sure now. And inserting the blocks is hell. If anyone knows a good tutorial on the internet, please let me know!

With a trailer in tow, Blackpool Transport Progress Twin Car set headed by car 874 loads passengers in the shadow of Blackpool Tower as a Marshall-bodied AEC Swift emerges from a side street. The Moderne building in the view was for many years a Woolworth’s store. It is now the Albert and The Lion, a Wetherspoon’s pub (which was beyond crowded when I tried to visit in more recent years).
‘Progress’ is the official motto of Blackpool.

Triple impact de foudre sur la vallée de la Garonne à hauteur de Ondes (31) photographié depuis Castelnau d'Estretefonds (31).
Détail:
Une petite cellule orageuse s'était formée ce soir là au Nord de l' agglomération Toulousaine et progressait vers Montauban. L'impact le plus lointain frappe un platane dans une rue pavillonnaire de Ondes. Le second plus à droite frappe un bosquet d'arbres mais le point d'impact ne pu être retrouvé. Le troisième coup de foudre qui semble le plus puissant frappe un champs tout près de la ligne électrique( à environ 1200m de l'objectif), ce qui montre que la foudre peut ignorer l'effet de capture. Un doute demeure sur le contact possible entre les traceurs situés à gauche du coup de foudre de droite et un câble de la ligne.
My Licca dollhouse is progressing steadily. The roof terrace is all but finished.
I've been working on the windows now. They have been a challenge to design so that they're practical and neat to make with the equipment/facilities I have. Not having a designated workshop area for woodwork is a downside, when every piece is sawn by hand. I have all this stuff just piled up in my dolly room now and I need to scoot off to the backyard warehouse when I need to saw something. Hehe!
I will do some touch ups on the paint work all over yet, but I'm fairly pleased with how its coming along, the colours chosen and such. :) Building this is so much fun, coming up with ways to do the different parts of the house and getting to play the designer a bit.
Statue of Albert Gallatin, genius of finance, stands in front of the U.S. Department of Treasury in Washington, DC.
A red brick wall stands where once there was earth. The last remnant of what grew there — a tree’s shadow — flits across the surface, ephemeral, rootless, and fading.
This is what remains of a landscape once protected, once green. The tree is not pictured, only its echo. The wall is not art, only assertion. It is the nature of shadows to vanish when the light moves on. And it is the nature of modern “progress” to mistake replacement for improvement.
After the Second World War, Britain’s Green Belts were established not as decoration, but as covenant — breathing space for generations unborn. Their erasure, now dressed as necessity, is a slow forgetting. The houses may be needed. But the trees were too.
This image is not a cry of rage. It is quieter than that — a whisper of what was, and what may never be again.
Let it be a witness.
The current City Hall building is a near-50-year-old structure that has served the city well but, in its current state, is functionally obsolete. Built in 1969, the current City Hall requires major renovations that are complicated by the presence of friable asbestos and the way the electrical and mechanical systems were installed.
On October 3, 2017, Virginia Beach city council unanimously approved a resolution to proceed with the design of a new city hall building. The new three-story structure adjacent to the current city hall, between Buildings 1 and 2, is under construction and progressing well.

Some more progress on the A4 and I’ve decided one isn’t enough now so there’s a second in the works. I might end up building all 6 surviving members in the end♂️

I made some good progress the last week. the upper part of the ship also needs to have LEDs installed.
This is what progress in Chicago looks like and its also a perfect example why humans are very rarely to be trusted. This building was once considered a House of God. If that's true, why would a population so intent on preaching his gospel let these buildings be demolished? Is God a Capitalist?
The future of traction for Sandaoling are the DF8B diesels and on 14 January workings to and from the Erjing Mine 2 were being shared by DF8B 0249, seen crossing the desert with empties, and a 'JS' class 2-8-2. Full dieselisation of these workings will have probably taken place at the beginning of February. Quite how long the deep mines will remain open for in the area with the downturn in coal consumption remains to be seen, but for sure there will be few if any visitors to report on it in the future.
