#340 of 365 Daily Drawings
Inspiration: 25 days left
Result: 25 bottles of beer on the wall, 25 bottles of beer.
If one of those bottles should happen to fall, 24 bottles of beer on the wall.
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Sakura Micron 005 in a Stillman & Birn Epsilon series sketchbook
Location: home
Note: For those unfamiliar with the song....it's called; '99 Bottles of beer on the wall'... and is usually sung on long car trips in Canada & the US..at the point when a group of people have been in the vehicle for far too long and sanity was left at the last gas station, three hours back down the highway.
A coffee cart has opened at the car repair place down by Linden railway station. I'm not sure how much passing trade they will get as this is, I think, a fairly quiet street, busy with foot traffic only at rush hour when people are heading to the station to work or away from the station home from work. A café specialising in (refined) sugar-free goods, but also selling coffee, opened a few days ago less than a hundred metres away from here, on the other side of the railway crossing.
They made this look really pretty though.

Jamaica has the most churches per square mile. Among green vegetation and beautiful sky formed as backdrop are these lovely buildings. The Carron Hall United Church, St. Mary, St. Cyprian’s Anglican Church, Highgate and St. Mary parish Church, Port Maria. These sturdy monuments exhibit strength and beauty that stood the test of time.

Dodgy looking weather.
Snapped from the car while being driving to the hairdressers in Upper Hutt. It brightened up later and I had a fun afternoon geocaching with my friend, Jae.

The building that houses the Grand Hotel in Jerome, Arizona, was built in 1927 and was originally the United Verde Hospital, considered at the time to be the most modern hospital in Arizona. It included a psychiatric ward. Today the Grand Hotel is a destination for ghost seekers, and many claim to have seen a nurse with a clipboard bending over their beds. The hotel restaurant, "The Asylum," is known for excellent food, quirky decor, and the way they go all out to decorate for Halloween.
These "favorite" themes really are tough to narrow down. In the end I chose the vehicle for these reasons:
1. There is usually a sense of anticipation or excitement to be going somewhere and then there's the return trip to go home (another favorite place).
2. Sometimes the journey is just as much fun as the destination. I can tell you all kind of wonderful stories from vacations and the best are from the car rides.
3. Trapped in a small area with my kids eventually led to conversation and that was always fun and interesting =)
Now don't get me wrong, the thought of a long car ride does not appeal to me but for the reasons I've stated, I kept coming back to it as a favorite place...call me crazy!
It got to the end of the day and I realised that I hadn't taken a photo. Later I realised that I didn't take one for my Project 365 either so this must stand for both.

The steam train that we saw yesterday in Ashburton is now in Arthur's Pass. It is on a tour of the South Island.
I was searching for a new DOC geocache at the Welcome sign at the start of town when a car pulled up. I assumed the driver was a fellow geocacher but he asked "has the train gone through?" So Jae and I went to the station to wait for it to arrive.

Took this photo early in the morning. I was luck this came out clear with the shutter set on 250/sec and I was walking at the same time. Quite like all the different ways people keep themselves warm in this photo.
