Sista lediga dagen för denna långhelg. Nu jobbar vi visserligen bara tre dagar i kaféet och sen går på långhelg igen, eller för min del semester. På fredag är det nämligen Anzac day och röd dag.
Idag har jag städat en hel del i lägenheten. Ägarna av lägenheten ska göra en inspektion imorgon och se så att allt ser bra ut. Jag gjorde en genomgående städning av köket och plockade ordning på det värsta i vårt rum. Daniel fixade en hel del så fort han kom hem och Johannes fixade det sista i vårt rum efter jobbet.
Jag var även iväg och shoppade under dagen. Mitt mål var att hitta ett par schyssta chinos eftersom mina andra har ett stort hål i skrevet. Jag hittade såklart allt annat än just byxor till en början. Bland annat en oemotståndlig jacka som jag efter lite funderan slog till på. Det var trots allt 30% rabatt. I sista (och största) klädbutiken jag kollade i hittade jag sen ett par mörkt militärgröna chinos som var nedsatt till ett mycket överkomligt pris. När jag sen gick fram till kassan och skulle betala visade det sig att priset på byxorna var ännu billigare och nästan 40% lägre än det redan nedsatta priset. Hur bra är inte det som förvåning?
After a long slog through sleet, snow and high winds Laurie and I reached Crater Lake and attempted to take some shots, with mixed results - with strong winds and light snow making it too hard to get a clean shot we retreated back down the trail to Crater Falls, where it was at least out of the wind, we still had to shelter or cameras/lenses from falling snow clumps donated by the tree canopy (some times Laurie). As you can see there was some snow around the creek (had about 15cm of snow over night, crazy weather for Summer) it was melting quickly - more photos of our trip to follow, hope you enjoy them.

After slogging up the really steep bit in a deluge the rain continued as we reached the first top on the northern end of the ridge, but as we turned south for the main summit the clouds started to break up and tease us with glimpses of the views we could have seen on a good day.
The big brouhaha over Eric Grandy's article and the subsequent shutdown of Atlas (I've dubbed it "Atlasgate") moves from posters to stencils. This is outside The Comet, while a "Fuck Grandy" is outside The Satellite.
Ravenseat farm after the four mile slog down through the bog from Nine Standards Rigg was an oasis. We all had a cream tea...... it was utter heaven. I am particularly pleased with this shot of Nick as he was being sponsored on his coast to coast walk for Guide Dogs for the Blind.

GBRF's 66706 'Nene Valley' having loaded at Arcow Quarry now heads north to Blea Moor to run round before heading south to Hunslet Tilcon north of Horton-in-Ribblesdale. Settle and Carlisle Railway.
A bit of a slog from the last panorama, here you can really see the glacier and two lateral moraines. What isn’t immediately obvious is that the gravel plain is also the glacier — under the gravel is more ice, slowly creeping downhill.
The couple on the trail were a friendly pair of folks from America. We talked a bit about China, where I had gone and they hadn't, and she asked me what the Chinese believed in. The only way to be happy is to have faith, you see, and the Chinese seem happy so they must have faith. I think I said something like "in their country" while my brain was quietly stripping its gears.

Well for, 158855 anyway.The Settle & Carlisle line is safely in the hands of Class 158's, been supplemented sometimes by not so comfortable Class 153's. The unit here is seen been prepared by the onboard train crew. That is, Driver, Guard and, only certain S&C trains, a trolley dolly! It was making a fair racket as air was been thrown into it!
A road haulier back in the 1950s and 60s could scarcely go wrong with the combination of an Atkinson chassis and Gardner engine. Atkinson lorries were hand-built in a Preston factory, while the Gardner engine works were in Patricroft, Manchester. These supremely reliable trucks slogged their way up and down the trunk roads of Britain. This Atkinson Borderer dates from 1972/73 and is preserved at the Bury Transport Museum. By this date however, the road haulage scenario was changing. Britain now had a comprehensive motorway network, permitting faster cruising speeds for trucks. Volvo and Scania capitalised on these developments with their advanced turbo-supercharged trucks with unprecedented driver comfort. More haulage business was on a contract basis too, especially as supermarkets gained market dominance and created distribution networks. Speed was now of the essence. The classic British slogger of a truck duly faded from the scene.
I'm having a very difficult time choosing between three crops of the same image I'm showing here, so I will spend this weekend posting all three and getting opinions from my Flickr friends.
Here is image one -- a young insect, the species of which I do not know, covered in pollen as he walks across the center of a heliopsis flower.

Este diseÑO fue inspirado en el slogan “Todo heroe merece una pilsen” En caso hacemos honor a los hombres y mujeres berracos que con sus cultivos hacen brillar nuestra cuidad con flores , colores y aromas que nos fortalecen de esperanza, alegria, pujanza y optimismo, valores orgullosamente paisas.
Los sembradores merecen un gran homenaje porque de generacion en generacion con su esfuerzo y su labor reflejan obras de arte con lo que la naturaleza nos ha dado en este caso las diferentes especies de flores expresan la perfeccion y el amor con la que los paisas hacemos nuestro trabajo.
Todo lo anterior hace que disfrutemos la feria a lado una pilsen bien helada!!!
Nick Berry of Mighty Riders pushes through the grueling second round of sand pits at the 2010 New Brighton cyclocross race. This upcoming weekend is the last of the season, with the BC Cup Finals on Saturday in South Surrey, and the Provincial Championships in North Vancouver on Sunday. Maybe I'll see you there?

This is some grafitti on a transport train at the worksite I am working at these days. It was nearly the only interesting thing there today other than the fancy toilet in my recent stream.
After a grinding slog through the forest, we finally found good fishing. Next time we’ll know to stick to the main trail!
This small stream flows into Rawson Lake. I hopped across rocks to get to its banks, trying very hard to avoid trampling the vegetation. Even in summer it was a bit chilly — as you can see we’re level with snow, still unmelted in the shadow of the mountain.

Competitors in the European Duathalon Championships at Holyrood Park. Apologies to the athletes involved - I don't have your names!
Q437 slogs up the mountain at Ballou's (the first of many trains I would shoot here) with CSX 5115, 4834, and 6245 for power.

When I was young and fit, Blakeney Point was a long, hard slog. It's a shingle ridge several miles long and hard going every step. Now, not so young and only exercising once every few years when a rare bird turns up on Blakeney Point, it was torturous. To make matters worse I was half way up when news came out that it hadn't been seen since the initial sighting and was thought possibly to have flown off. Fortunately, I realised that if I cut my losses and turned back, and then it did reappear, I wouldn't have the energy left to go back up again, so I pressed on. Good job I did, as within a few minutes of arriving at the spot where it had been seen the gloomy mood soon switched as it dropped in again.
This was the first record for Norfolk (amazingly, the third species to be added to the county list this year, following the White-crowned Sparrow in January and the Black Lark in April). I'd seen one before in neighbouring Suffolk, but, coming from North Africa or the Middle East, they're an extremely rare bird in the UK.
The second for Norfolk turned up almost exactly two years later.
Slogging up Mt Monroe from the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. We'd put in more than 2500 vertical meters by this point. Some were getting dehydrated.
Love this lake. Can't get enough. To swim in it is heaven after the slog up to and over Kearsarge Pass.
"At this beautiful place—the most beautiful I have yet seen in the Sierra—we camped nearly a week. The lake, 11,000 feet above sea-level, stands in an amphitheater completely surrounded by the highest peaks of this the most alpine portion of the Sierra. On the east, the sharp, jagged, castellated, pinnacled, splintered peaks of Kearsarge ; then going round southward, the symmetric, conical, towering form of University Peak, 14,000 feet high,then Stanford Peak equally lofty, and Mt. Keith still loftier, 14,200 feet, then the fine outlines of the Videttes; then southwestward the grand, massive form of Mt. Brewer with its great cirque filled with snow, from which emerges a fine glacier. On the northwest Charlotte Peak, with Charlotte Lake at its foot, and all the fine peaks of the Sierra in panoramic view from its summit. Several of these peaks—Charlotte Peak, Mt. Keith, etc.—were ascended by the younger members of our party, while I kept camp and strolled around the lake enjoying the in- comparable scenery." - Dr. Joseph LeConte ;July 20th, 1900
