feeling rather worn out today.
i did a bunch of shopping last night... feeling pretty good for where I am at. I have a bit more to do but the lion share is done. Need to get some wrapping done. I'm usually a late and indecisive shopper so it feels good to be getting close to done. if i don't stay up late on christmas eve... total win.
As my wife and I were driving Route 23 north in Kentucky headed towards West Virginia, I noticed a train headed in our same direction. I then noticed that the lead engine was a Canadian Pacific diesel, which I've never seen one in person. I looked at my wife and pretty much just said I was going to get ahead of it and stop to take a few pictures. Thankfully the tracks pace the road for several miles along that stretch of 23, so I sped up, got to a pull-off spot and was able to get out and snap some pictures.
The train consisted of a CP lead unit in tandem with a CSX engine, and then a long line of CSX coal hoppers. I snapped a bunch of pictures and then got back in the car. We got back on the road, and of course caught back up with the train. I again told my wife I was gonna get ahead of it and try to get one more set of pics, which she excitedly encouraged. I was able to get ahead of the train again, get pulled off, and setup to take another series of pictures at a different crossing.
I know for some, these pictures may be nothing special.....but for me, it was a little slice of excitement in what was an otherwise winding down road-trip as we approached Huntington WV, and then Teays Valley WV. Getting a chance to take some of my own pictures of a CP engine, and doing a quick train chase just made for an exciting evening for both of us.
Same sunset as the previous five shot panorama flood. Single shot, pretty much straight from the camera with the exception of the crop.
Today is my spiritual birthday; I'm three.
I never could have imagined how much God has transformed my life in the last three years. Amazing.
"I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
We're still in the same garden as yesterday's photo...
An interesting Fuchsia tit-bit: Wikipedia notes that... "the majority of Fuchsia species are native to Central and South America.
However, a small additional number are found on the Caribbean Island of Hispaniola (two species), in New Zealand (three species) and on Tahiti (one species)."
Thanks so much for the very kind and encouraging comments beneath this photo...! Your support is very greatly appreciated.
We had a touch of fog roll through on Sunday.

I hope Angela doesn't mind ... this was the first time we met. It was Angela who told me about Barbara's make up parlour, and we arranged to meet there. My record shows it was May 2002.
The dress I wore then is the same as I am wearing in today's picture. It is clearly very forgiving as not only am I fully padded but that is on top of 20 years accumulated padding! I would love to have those pins back ... LOL!
On Tuesday 25/5/2021, a 4 hour late running 3AS8 (Indian Pacific) is seen approaching Gallipoli road, Korunye (SA with the common duo of nr86-G530 in charge.
As a child growing up in Corrington, Captain Brickleton would gaze out his bedroom window at Orion's Belt and the Big Dipper.
Now a grown man and leading the Corlander military contingent in Elizabethville, Brickleton would still gaze up at those same stars. On the return leg of his trip to the interior looking for a waterfall that rained gold, the captain encountered the medicine man of the Onondaga and invited him back to visit the military camp outside Fort di Legno. The medicine man told the captain some of the tribe's histories. He showed Captain Brickleton the stars he had always known, but explained them in a new way: Orion's Belt was the Goose Foot and the Bigger Dipper was the Wolf Brothers. Same stars, but different names.

SMILE...SMILE..SMILE...SMILE...HAPPY...HAPPY....HAPPY ;-)!
Could you help me ;-)? Please don't tell my friends that I posted this ;-)!
I don't know how to explain about this funny shot. I know only it makes me laugh when I see it every time. Now I am laughing and smiling (again) ;-)!
***NO INVITES PLEASE***...Thanks so much for your visits and also for any comments and faves. I appreciate for all. All your words are nice awards for me. Thank you..thank you ;-)...
... same location as my previous image, now inside the small ruin.
Light from outside helps to illuminate the
window parts. Inside the ruin, it was complete dark ( exluded the windows parts ).
To give a contrast to the warm orange tones i lighted the walls with my flashlight and a blue gel, only the statue in front without gel.
This time, only one exposure.
Tell me everything you want me to be
Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same
Call on me
I'll be there for you and you'll be there for me
Forever it's you
Forever in me
Ever the same
