Notice the row of PowerBooks. And the event was sponsored by MSN (Microsoft Network), ha. DXO (at Esplanade), 16 July 2005.
A segment of the Berlin wall with graffiti on it. I saw this at a local hotel and it reminded me of how empires rise and fall. Wars create empires but they also break them down. USSR fell apart as a result of the Afghanistan war. Time will only tell who the wars of today will bring down.

Day 4 (Segment 27)
random campsite to Bridge site
The final descent to Taylor Lake, although switchbacked, was pretty difficult. Caution was necessary on this steep sidehill which was strewn with loose talus stones. One misstep could be disastrous. Every step was careful and calculated. I did safely arrive at the Lake.
Taylor Lake is a stunning high alpine lake nestled in its own basin at an elevation of approximately 11,600 feet. An excellent place for a short break and to refill water containers. I encountered the hikers I had seen earlier on the Highline Trail, also taking a break.
Kennebec Trailhead, and the end of Segment 27, was about a mile away. I already had about 9 miles in for the day with about 7 more to go, so I didn’t linger at the lake for long. Kennebec Pass was another .6 mile away.

My plan for this year was to hike from Breckenridge to Twin Lakes, via Leadville, and then hike the Collegiate Loop. That would've been about 200 miles. I didn't even make it to Twin Lakes. For some reason I just wasn't in to hiking this year. Maybe it was the distance, I don't know. The scenery that I had already enjoyed should have spurred me on but it did not.
The hiking for the day was not difficult. The trail went past a few landmarks. First thing in the morning was Cataract Creek Falls. Shortly thereafter the trail went through a meadow until it passes Camp Hale bunker ruins. At 9300' Camp Hale was a military, winter training camp during WWII. I bet it was cold and snowy!
After crossing East Fork Eagle River, the trail reentered the woods. I took a short break at the James Miller Memorial Bench where I contemplated going into Leadville earlier than planned. There are 3 easy access points to Leadville from the Colorado Trail. I was planning to catch a hitch at the end of Segment 8 via Tennessee Pass off of US24. The trail crosses US24 several miles before Tennessee Pass and that is where I decided to go in.
I caught a ride fairly quickly and made it to the Leadville Hostel where my car was parked. I was done hiking but I wasn't done hiking. Less than 35 miles of hiking for this year. Well those were backpacking miles. After getting off the trail I hung around Leadville for a few days. I day hiked the rest of Segment 8 and a portion of Segment 9. I climbed Mount Elbert (start very early to avoid crowds and possible thunderstorms).
So even though I didn't hike as far as I had planned I still had a good time exploring around Leadville.

Daring as ever, KIA has decided to enter the rear-drive sports sedan segment with the Stinger. In production since 2017, the Stinger offers a practical 5-door hatchback body with aggressive styling that clearly articulates its sporting intentions.
KIA made sure that the Stinger could hold its own against cars like the BMW 4-Series Gran Coupe and Audi A5 Sportback. Thus, the base car is equipped with a 259 PS 2.0-litre turbocharged inline 4 cylinder engine, matching the base engines offered in the Germans. The price is un-German like, however, as KIA charges a reasonable $31,900 for the entry level 2.0L trim.
The display vehicle is the Premium trim which starts quite a bit higher at $37,100. For the additional cash, though, KIA adds 18" machine finish alloys, a sunroof, navigation, and LED headlights. The attractive Micro Blue Pearl colour is matched to Black leather seats.

a body segment rests on naked alkali after offloading. this is one of four structural pieces and more wood was added at connect everything onsite.

I don't think a single person at the dinner was able to finish this, no matter how delicious it was.

Birdseye Maple, Walnut. The maple came from the floor of the old O'fallon roller skating rink in St. Charles county, Mo.
A rarely seen ant found foraging on the forest floors in a National park in India. This ant was known previously from Burma and Ceylon from records dating back to 1903.
Segment 7 begins at the Goldhill Trailhead near Breckenridge, CO. Access to Breckenridge is easy via a free bus ride. The Summit Stage bus stop is not far from the trailhead.
I was hiking toward Leadville where I had left my car at the Leadville Hostel. Ownership of the Leadville Hostel has changed since I stayed there. It was $25 for a night in the bunkroom where I somehow managed to get a few hours of sleep despite some snorers. It was a very nice hostel; I would be surprised if it wasn't still.
I took the Lake County Link (pay $5 on bus) from Leadville to Frisco Station where I picked up the Summit Stage. I was hiking by 0900 on a bright, sun shiny day. The first several miles were fairly easy although mostly exposed. Evidence of the pine beatle devastation was clearly visible once again.
It was an awesome hike. The views are spectacular. Maybe the best I've seen (to this point) even better than GA Pass. Once above treeline, it is sidehill with some extremely steep areas. There were some patches of melting snow along the way.
There were quite a few CT hikers out on this day. After hiking about 12 miles which included up and over the high point of 12,495 feet, I stopped for the night. I was just short of the end of the segment.
So I decided to try out my little display chip. It works :-) I also tried to convert it to farenheight but that needs tweaking. It's accurate at 71 but I think it'd get progressively worse the farther you get from there. :-)
I've got two of these chips so I could set up a total of four digits... And I could run them all with 10 pins I think... 7 for the segments, 1 for the decimal point, then two for the for common anodes. Then I could toggle which number is on really fast. :-) I think I'll have to resort to a real breadboard for that though.
This poster contains the assembly of our life-size model along with an isometric view and the segment of the model we had constructed.
At Hangar AE, Cape Canaveral Air Station (CCAS), the last segment is lifted over the top of NASA's Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite already encased in a protective canister. The satellite will next be moved to Launch Pad 17A, CCAS, for its scheduled launch June 23 aboard a Boeing Delta II rocket. FUSE was developed by The Johns Hopkins University under contract to Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., to investigate the origin and evolution of the lightest elements in the universe - hydrogen and deuterium. In addition, the FUSE satellite will examine the forces and process involved in the evolution of the galaxies, stars and planetary systems by investigating light in the far ultraviolet portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. the Launch Pad.
