Free Air is a collection of autobiographical stories from The Saturday Evening Post. The cover illustrated the tendency to illustrated cloth before the 1920's. Lewis was a relative unknown when this title was issued. Compare it to Ann Vickers.
Visiting Radium Hot Springs and the surrounding areas for Labour Day Weekend 2013.
Always a treat to pull over before leaving the town of Radium to marvel at the beauty of Sinclair Canyon.
Okay, I know you folks who live out that way are probably used to these things, but we don't have this type of gas in my neck of the woods and seeing green dinos floating in the air is really a new thing for me.
Edit: 2022 This station became a not a Sinclair, then became a Sinclair again, but the dinosaur is gone.

The identical "West Country" and "Battle of Britain" pacifics were built to provide increased power for use on the Southern's secondary main lines, especially those in the West country with weight restrictions. However, some of Bulleid's novel ideas, designed to reduce maintenance costs, proved troublesome. Therefore in 1957 a programme of rebuilding the locomotives along conventional lines was started. The rebuilding of the Bulleid light pacifics added several tons to their weight, but produced, to all intents, brand-new locomotives, whilst retaining the distinctive light-weight Bulleid-Firth-Brown wheels and his superb free-steaming boiler, along with many other of the successful innovative design features.
Rescued from Barry scrapyard in 1979 without a tender, this locomotive has since then been the subject of ongoing restoration work and fundraising. A tender underframe was salvaged from a steel-works, the original intention being to use this in conjunction with a new body. However this underframe was in poor condition, and in the end only some fittings from it were used, with the tender frames being constructed at Sheffield Park from new material. A new 5250-gallon tender body has been made, and placed on it.
The formal launch into Bluebell service, as the first rebuilt Battle of Britain to steam in preservation, performed by Viscount Thurso (grandson of Sir Archibald Sinclair, who was the wartime Secretary of State for Air from 1940) on 24th April 2009. Regretably, the loco was withdrawn during October 2011, in need of further firebox repairs, which will keep it out of action for at least a year.
Abigail might be developing a crush on her mom's teen aged best friend. Maybe he will stay a teen long enough for Abigail to date >.>
I wanted a shot of the abandoned station with the billboard nearby... just out of frame by the billboard is I-244 (which runs alongside Southwest Boulevard/Historic 66).
Billboard reads: Sinclair A Proud Product of Tulsa.
I recently finished my Warby Parker Home Try-On Program. Seriously. Try five pairs of glasses at home for five days for free. Seriously. Did I mention when you buy a pair of glasses, they donate a pair to someone in need.
The Tall Sign Was Added By Sinclair In The Late 1960's, When The Station Was Built. The Original Logo Survived All The Way Until Circa 2010. Then, A Newer Square-Shaped Sinclair Logo Replaced The Previous One At That Time. Then In Early 2019, A Storm Knocked Out And Destroyed The Logo Of The Sign. Since 2019, There Unfortunately Was No Logo On The Sign.
The Station Has Always Been A Sinclair And Still Survives As One To This Day!

Ce château-là, au moins, on peut le visiter gratuitement, quand on veut, et seul, vraiment seul, contrairement au château d'Edimbourg, celui de Highlander (Eilean Donan) ou encore celui du Loch Ness. De nombreuses pancartes expliquent son histoire, et ce qu'il reste de ruines est juste suffisant pour le visualiser. La falaise, sur laquelle il est construit, qui baigne dans une eau turquoise, les nombreux oiseaux qui nichent autour, et la vue sur les terres d'en face sont autant de raisons de plus d'apprécier ce site isolé au bout de la route, après Wick.
