You may think we have nothing in common
But we’re both in complete disrepair
in the middle of a city hanging on to
utter rubble.
We’re clinging to this telephone pole.
Our bodies won’t stand up straight without it.
And, if, at the end of this world, you really
don’t have anything to say to me.
Then, I don’t know what the point of hanging on is.
Because, we were created by the same enemy
and now, we have to ask ourselves,
Is it the weather or the humans we fear most?
Talk to me before a tiny yet significant scratch
ends us both.

Walking along Askam beach in Cumbria, i came across areas of large building stone and brick. Later i learned that the local farmer dumps all this rubble here to prevent and slow down the erosion to his land.
Led by the Australian geologist we climbed the volcano. With his jeep we drove as far as possible on the slope of the mountain where we then walked through the jungle. There was no hiking trail, but the local guide knew exactly where to go.
In these latitudes the tree line is far higher than in our temperate zones, finally we started the last part of the way, which has been
only loose lava rubble which slipped under our feet. We finally reached the edge of the crater in altitude of 2.892 meters (9,485 ft). The geologist wanted some rock samples.

A migratory turnstone spends the winter on a tropical beach exploring hermatypic calcareous fragments for tasty invertebrates that may be sheltering beneath. The turnstone gets its common name from its foraging behavior of using it bill to turn stones and probe the sand for food. This one fattens up for the impending spring departure to Alaska, a journey of 3,000+ non-stop miles over the north Pacific. Arenaria interpres, breeding plumage.
Vielleicht erinnert ihr euch an den Wintergarten, dieses Hauses, den ich mal hier hochgeladen hatte.
Das Haus ist abgerissen.
Meine Urlaubspläne sind auch zertrümmert.
Vielleicht sollte ich doch zum Mond fiegen?
Maybe you remember the conservatory of this house that I uploaded here.
The house has been demolished.
My vacation plans are smashed too.
Perhaps I should fly to the moon nevertheless?
The Cotton Belt freight house still stands among the near north side piles of rubble in St. Louis.
Large brick warehouses used to flank the TRRA Merchants District at O'Fallon St and both are now piles. Hard to predict any kind of future "development" here as portions of this city are crumbling.
The bright spots in the month of April were the daily run of TRRA 4001 / 4002 on the 201 job on its Madison to Lindenwood turn.

The remains of a house that once stood here, All that is left is a pile of ruble and the chimney.
Taken in the fall just before sundown.
Although the property contained this ruin and many rundown buildings, the house had been occupied, often with people in the yard, when I passed by in other years. Sadly, even the house, which still looks livable, seemed to be abandoned as of November.
