Die in den Jahren 1870 bis 1873 von der Bau-Unternehmung Gebrüder Klein, A. Schmoll & E. Gaertner errichtete Brücke war die erste reine Eisenbahnbrücke im Linzer Raum. Ihre steinernen Pfeiler wurden mit Caissons im Flussbett gegründet.
Ein wenig scheint sie zu schmollen, die 294 rechts im Hintergrund. Zwei ihrer Konkurrentinnen aus der Privatbahnwelt, darunter diese Chemion-Hybridlok, haben ihre Frachten schon bekommen. Erst eine halbe Stunde später wird die Grillo-Werkbahnlok auch der DB-Lok die für sie bestimmten Kesselwagen bringen. Die Anschlußbedienung der Grillo-Betriebe findet werktäglich zur späten Mittagszeit statt und bringt, zumal wenn insgesamt 3 Loks beteiligt sind, interessanten Rangierbetrieb mit sich.

Reflejos en Laguna Toncek- Bariloche-Argentina
Imagenes de mi nietos, la mayoría de Emiliano.
Hoy les dejo la segunda parte de la caminata que realizaran mis nietos Emiliano (17) y Julieta (15) con el grupo de scout Canaiquen de Mar del Plata.
En esta imagen se estan despidiendo de la Laguna Toncek camino al Valle del Rucaco.
La travesia:
"Es una de las travesías más habituales de la zona. Debemos ascender hasta el Refugio Frey cuya descripción ya hicimos antes. Al llegar al Frey se recorre la laguna Toncek por su margen derecha siguiendo marcas rojas, amarillas y negras en las rocas. Al final de la laguna la senda comienza a ascender entre piedras que forman altos escalones. En aproximadamente 1 hora se llega a una planicie donde se encuentra la laguna Small.
Se bordea la laguna por su margen izquierdo y se comienza el ascenso final, nuevamente trepando rocas, hacia el filo del cerro Catedral, se deben seguir siempre las marcas rojas. Al finalizar la trepada llegamos a una planicie arenosa conocida como “cancha de futbol”, luego de atravesarla hay indicaciones de los posibles rumbos. Nos encontramos en el filo del Catedral desde donde disfrutamos de una gran vista del valle Rucaco, cerros Tres Reyes, López, Capilla y de fondo el Tronador.
Luego comenzamos un largo, pronunciado y trabajo descenso hacia el valle del Rucaco, siguiendo siempre las marcas rojas. La ultima parte del descenso se realiza por un cañadon estrecho de rocas entre lengas achaparradas. El valle se atraviesa por extensos mallines y sectores de bosque. Al final del valle se comienza el ascenso hacia el paso Brecha Negra del cerro Tres Reyes. Al llegar al filo disfrutamos de una bellisima vista de la laguna Jakob y el refugio San Martín.
Luego debemos realizar otro dificil y pedregoso descenso para finalmente llegar al Refugio ubicado a 1520 m s.n.m., fue inaugurado el 17 de febrero de 1952, está construido en madera y piedra y tiene capacidad para 30 personas. Cercano al refugio se encuentra un área de acampe libre. Desde el Refugio Frey la travesía requiere 6/7 hs de marcha.
Al día siguiente la visita obligada es a la Laguna los Tempanos. La senda trepa por paredones rocosos que rodean la laguna Jakob por el norte. Debemos ir atentos a las marcas rojas y montículos de piedras (pircas) que nos guían hasta la bella laguna donde llegamos luego de 40 minutos a 1 hora de marcha.
El regreso lo hacemos por la senda tradicional al refugio San Martín siguiendo el valle del arroyo Casa de Piedra. Esta senda tiene 18 km de longitud y el descenso podemos hacerlo en 4, yendo a buen ritmo, a 6 horas"

Am südöstlichen Ortsrand der 480-Seelen-Marktgemeinde Rastenfeld (KR), liegt der örtliche Friedhof der Gemeinde. Er liegt in 588m SH nahe der Bundesstrasse 37 Richtung Krems. Zentral im Friedhof steht das Friedhofskreuz. Es ruht auf einem steinernen rechteckigen Grundfundament auf dem das Friedhofskreuz aufgerichtet wurde. Alle Teile des Kreuzes, Sockel, Postament wie auch das Hochkreuz mit seinen breiten Kleeblattenden sind aus hellem gestreiften Waldviertler-Marmor gestaltet worden, aus dem nahen Renz-Marmor-Steinbruch aus Winkl (GM Röhrendorf,HO). An der Vorderseite des Postamentes ist eine helle Stiftungs-Marmorplatte montiert, mit folgenden Text: "Gewidmet von Herrn Anton Schenz, prakt. Arzt und Ehrenbürger von Rastenfeld, und dessen Gattin Josefa. Im Jahre 1894". Geschaffen hat das Marmorkreuz der Zwettler Steinmetz Schmoll. Zentral am Kreuz noch ein polychromes Corpus Christi. Anton Schenz war nicht nur Arzt und Ehrenbürger der Marktgemeinde sondern auch lange Zeit Bürgermeister des Ortes.

Schnief....die Zeit ist bald vorbei....
Ein Eishörnchen, das ist doch klar, findet den Sommer wunderbar! Die Sonne scheint, die Bienen summen, es will vor lauter Glück nicht brummen.
Es klettert flink den warmen Baum, und träumt vom kühlen Eis, oh Traum! Doch statt zu schmollen, spielt es lachend, was dieses Hörnchen ganz entspannt und weiche, wie eine Wolke, die der Wind ganz leicht sich wiegt und treibt, um sie die Wärme zeigt.
Mit Beeren, Nüssen, wird es satt, erfreut sich jeder noch so kleinen Tat. Es weiß: Die Zeit ist schnell vorbei, drum genießt es jeden Sonnentag, oh juchei!
AKA: Agave mapisaga var. lisa [Thank you nowhereonearth for the I.D. and the tags!]
My sister-in-law Nora standing beside a good sized Agave. Behind her is the flower stalk of this plant's parent. Taken at the Huntington in San Marino California, the Cactus garden. I was refered to the article below by elSabri.
ONCE IN A LIFETIME, PERHAPS…
by Phil Skonieczki, Huntington Docent and Volunteer
What huge agave has the stoutest, thickest leaves of all? The answer is Agave mapisaga var. lisa near the antique Euston gate and Succulent Circle, in the SW corner of the Desert Garden. In the next few months visitors to the lower garden will have a chance to witness a rare and spectacular flowering event, rivaling the blooming of last year’s “white”-leaved agave, Agave franzosinii in the Heritage Garden and the giant just finishing its bloom east of the sycamore trees. Our giant agave, A. mapisaga var. lisa, has started to shoot its asparagus-like flower stalk skyward. We first noticed it on January 20, 2005, when the emerging inflorescence was about one foot above the upper leaves. By February 17, it was about seven feet above the upper leaves, growing at the rate of about 1 1/2 feet per week. By April 10, it had begun branching. In 1978, 27 years ago, the original agave was moved from Block 20 to the present location and what you see today are two offsets of that plant. The records show the acquisition of sixty seeds or seedlings on January 25, 1933, labeled “Maguey Lisa” from a nurseryman, Ferdinand Schmoll, of Querétaro, Mexico. The sole survivor was recorded as acquisition HNT 3633 in the then-recently established Accession Catalogue established by Eric Walther. Walther began numbering plants that started with “A” and descendants of the plant #1 are the colonial Agave celsii var. albicans to be found in the lower garden.*
[*This project was undertaken early in Walther’s career. He went on to be a director of the Strybing Arboretum and one of the world’s foremost authorities on echeverias.]
Agave mapisaga var. lisa may have flowered for the first time in 1950—there is a picture of William Hertrich dwarfed by a maguey plant with its massive inflorescence. The noted agave specialist Howard Scott Gentry believed this plant to be a giant form of the pulque plant Agave mapisaga that grows in the highlands of Mexico City’s Valley of Mexico at 5,000 to 8,000 feet. For centuries, to maximize production of pulque, A. mapisaga and other agaves were probably selected for large size. Variety lisa is approximately 25 percent larger, making it the largest of all agaves with leaves perhaps one foot thick at their bases. In 1966, Gentry described it as the largest with the type plant being one in the Desert Garden’s Block 20. His monograph on agaves, published in 1982, shows his pith helmet perched on one of the leaf tips for size comparison. By the way, “lisa” is Spanish for “smooth,” a reference to the texture of the leaf surfaces.
When Gentry returned to the highlands of Mexico to look for this agave, he could not find it and concluded that it must have come from a small clonal group of unknown location. He also concluded that it could have been selected and cultivated for its high yield of pulque. The value and rarity of many of the Huntington’s unique specimens have become clear in recent years. It is not really in cultivation, but exists in a few gardens. Joe Clements, previous Desert Garden curator, believes an offset may have gone to the Phoenix Botanical Garden and that Gentry may also have taken some specimens to his nursery in Murietta and Phoenix.** Gentry laments that Phoenix is a poor place for the large pulque agaves. There they are stunted, sunburned, and grow poorly. He states these highland species reach gigantic sizes in the mild climate of the Huntington, since our latitude tends to emulate the high altitudes of the lower latitude found at Mexico City. Gary Lyons believes some are at the Los Angeles Zoo and at the Rancho Mission Viejo.
Each giant rosette of leaves of the plant Agave mapisaga var. lisa blooms in about 25-35 years, and the tree-like flower stalk does not produce bulbils. Thus there are very few opportunities to view an inflorescence. The last opportunity in the DG was ten years ago.
So take a walk to the bottom of the Desert Garden and seek out the easy-to-find gigantic plants. Take time to look up and admire the unfolding spectacle.
Anyone know the name of this bird?
After lunch we were on a march to check out two features of note in Cadereyta.
Cadereyta has two splendid botanical gardens specializing in care and reproduction of precious species of cactaceae and shrubs of the region's semi-arid climate.
They are the best of their kind in the Americas. First is the Quinta Fernando Schmoll. In addition to Mexican species, it includes succulents and aloe vera from Africa.
We walked right past the Schmoll without recognizing the entrance (trouble with out limited Spanish in taking direction).
A few steps from the Schmoll is the Regional Botanical Garden, with magueyes, biznagas, organs, cardones, yuccas and other plants.
What? A few steps? We walked fast paced for 30 minutes - guess they were meaning "take a taxi" minutes. We passed some creatures on the walk.
