Substituting soft toys to try to make up for him not having litter-mates. He is a "big-boy" now, and has no more interest in his bottle! 😊
I was planning on doing a nice series on the attractive purple peninsulas of pickerelweed (Pontederia cordata) which occur around the lake, and set off in the canoe to do precisely that on a beautiful, sunny Saturday in the northwoods. Unfortunately, the winds kicked up after I departed, creating not only a bad day for photos of anything from the canoe, but also a bad day to be 66 years old as the breezes tested my mettle. (I'm not sure what a "mettle" is, but I am sure it was tested and hope it's not sore tomorrow.)
Thus you will have to make do with this spotted knapweed (Centaurea biebersteinii) which is not only also purple, but has the added peculiar distinction of apparently being named for Justin Bieber. Or perhaps the latter was named for the former. Either way, I would consider both highly invasive in their own right, and tho Justin would no doubt strongly disagree, I find the weed far prettier and recommend a taxonomical redo.

Macro Monday substitute photo. The MM theme was "Pink", and I don't have many pink things (in general) that also happen to be photogenic in a macro setting, so I thought I'd at least upload a photo today that has a pink element in it. In this case, it's the wrought-iron bridge banister and ornament that used to be a part of the old Marschallbrücke (located in Berlin-Mitte), and that are now (design) elements of the "Anhalter Steg" which connects the Hallesches Ufer (and also the Tempodrom and the Anhalter Bahnhof) with the German Museum of Technology (Deutsches Technikmuseum) in Berlin-Kreuzberg. The bridge reflection which you can see in the muddy waters of the Landwehr Canal is an elevated railway line that is used by the metro lines U1 and U3.
When I crossed the Anhalter Steg after a visit to the Technikmuseum, I thought that it might be interesting to photograph the bridge's ornament straight from above, with the railway bridge's reflection adding further interest, and when I leaned onto the banister and looked down I noticed that someone either very tall (and flexible) or brave enough to climb onto the ornament had written "token 911" onto it. A general statement? I assume that we will never know.
Have a nice week ahead, dear Flickr Friends!
Per Anhalter über den Landwehrkanal
Gut, es geht auch zu Fuß – und das vermutlich schneller ;) Dieses historische Brückenelement ist Bestandteil des neuen Anhalter Stegs, der seit 2001 das Deutsche Technikmuseum über den Landwehrkanal hinweg mit dem Halleschen Ufer inklusive Elise-Tilse-Park, Tempodrom und Anhalter Bahnhof verbindet. Das Brückengeländer mit dem dekorativen rosafarbenen Element, das der Berliner Architekt Benedict Tonon für den Bau des Anhalter Stegs verwendet hat, war eigentlich Bestandteil der alten Marschallbrücke in Berlin-Mitte, die in den Jahren 1997-1999, ebenfalls nach einem Entwurf von Benedict Tonon, saniert und an die gestiegenen Anforderungen des Schiffsverkehrs angepasst wurde. Diese bedingten es, dass nicht alle ursprünglichen Bauelemente der historischen Marschallbrücke vor Ort wiederverwendet werden konnten, weshalb Tonon dieses Brückenelement in den Anhalter Steg integrierte.
Habt eine schöne Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde!
Rio Grande SD40T-2 No. 5390, one of "Mel's Engines", leads the LJP45 17 local with 42 cars down the Sunnyside Subdivision, 1.7 miles from the main line connection at Mounds, Utah the afternoon of Oct. 17, 2003. At this point in time, the Rio Grande Tunnel Motor "Gang of Four" was down to three original D&RGW numbered units (5390, 5371, and 5349) remaining on the UP roster, hence the UP SD40-2 substitution.
These are more pollard willows whose trunk has been shortened as a young tree at a height of approximately 1 to 3 meters and whose branches are cut regularly.
Since branches of willows were often used as piles for the construction of fences, new plants emerged from these piles due to the enormous regenerative capacity of the willows. For this reason, pollard willows often occur (e.g. in the Lower Rhine area) in a row.
Today, there is now economic use of willows, as industrial substitute products have been established. This is why pollard willows are no longer cultivated nowadays.
Approaching Tunnel 1, the Rio Grande Ski Train marches up the Moffat Tunnel Subdivision east of Plainview, Colorado, on the morning of January 7, 2001. Pinch-hitting for ailing F40PH No. 242 on today’s train is Rio Grande GP40-2 No. 3105.
It is always nice catching the Union Yard/Midway Yard job when the usual 1824/1896 pair has gone to Northtown for refueling or inspection, etc., as the replacement power always seems to be something different. Back in mid-December it was an SD40-2R/SD75M combo that had the honors as they pulled a cut out of Union and headed over to Midway. Seeing one of the ex-ATSF ex-SD45-2s that are captive to Northtown is fun too. BNSF 1571 (ATSF 5702) was one of the five SD45-2s back in the day to wear the bicentennial scheme for a couple of years.
Goldfinches are in full bright yellow plumage now. I got out the camera to photograph them when this guy showed up. The finches can wait.

One of Paul Gauguin's most treasured possessions was a painting by Cezanne,Still Life with Fruit Dish,which he emulates in this picture.Within a similarly compressed space,Gauguin substituted mangoes for Cezanne's apples and a Tahitian styled print cloth for a French floral wallpaper design.One significant departure is the human figure in the upper right glimpsed through a door or window.The year after he completed this work Gauguin's finances were so dire that he arranged for the sale of his prized Cézanne.
Sunday's Bay Street Shuttle climbs up the grade at Glen Ridge with GP40PH-2B 4212 leading. Normally the shuttle hosts Arrow III equipment, but due to an outage a GP40 was used for the weekend.
I went to the garden center for wasp spray...couldn't find any, so came home with a selection of potted flowers instead...much better way to spend the money...I love the color on the pure white petals of this miniature carnation..as it matures, the color becomes more intense
The Rio Grande Zephyr pauses briefly at its scheduled 8:25 p.m. stop in Provo, Utah on a pleasant April evening in 1975. At left, the usual gang of devoted fans were on hand to greet the train’s arrival, likely discussing the substitute power on the point of the train.
Nobody cared to pull this poor little boat on land months ago. Now it is hanging on to survive...

Back on Malmøya to capture some more fantastic landscape shots, but the unpredictable winter weather was not on my side :( Heavy clouds move in before I got in position ... But this little boat was a nice substitution :))
Thanks

While #815 was on it's 92-day inspection back in February, former SP GP60 #1107 briefly filled in on the UP YPR60. With four cars from Blommer, the 60A rolls across Tower A2 interlocking, one of the last holdouts of CNW-style GRS searchlights in the Midwest.

A seguito dell'implementazione del sistema di sicurezza ETCS lungo l'asse alpino del San Gottardo le Br185 che DB adoperava abitualmente su questo itinerario dovettero essere distolte dall'abituale servizio per permettere la progressiva installazione dei sistemi necessari. SBB Cargo e DB Schenker siglarono pertanto un accordo commerciale per lo "scambio" di una parte delle proprie dotazioni.
Mentre quindi una decina di Br185 vennero assegnate ai servizi "domestici" delle Ferrovie Federali elvetiche, prevalentemente assegnate al deposito di Zurich Limathal, SBB sostituì fino allo scorso cambio d'orario, le TRAXX tedesche con le proprie locomotive su tutti i convogli che dalla Germania si dirigevano in Ticino ed Italia.
Nella foto la Re4/4.11183 sta proprio trainando sul San Gottardo uno dei convogli forse più indelebilmente associati alle Br185 tedesche, il "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza. (30/10/15)
In the last months the DBS Br185.1s used along the Gotthard route had been withdrawed due to the ETCS implementation.
While some loks were working with SBB in domestic freight activities around Zurih Limathal, some Re10/10 were employed to haul also the DBS international trains from Basel to Chiasso.
Beyond the many mixed freight from Mannheim, also the "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza had been entrusted to the Swiss loks.
Here the Re4/4.11183 and a Re6/6 are running just before the Biaschina Loops heading the southbound train. (30/10/15)
When the company I worked for introduced Quality Assurance principles in 1988, as part of my role I taught the history and application of Quality Management techniques to my staff. I used to hold up Arnott's Biscuits as a leading example. All Aussies will know and love Arnott's wonderful biscuits.....until not all that long ago they used to deliver their products in sparkling red vans that were never dirty, always shining clean and personally I had never found an Arnott's Biscuit that I didn't like nor that was presented and opened without perfection. Now those to me at the time were some important hallmarks of TQM (Total Quality Management) that I thought were great examples for my students....exceeding customer's expectations, consistent quality of product.
I know many of you will have studied and applied this stuff in your professional and perhaps personal lives in recent times. This mural of an Arnott's advertising sign brought back those memories and I still love their biscuits (many made within a couple of kilometres from us in Brisbane, at times I can still smell their vanilla creams!) - although they are not so good for me health wise these days. Sadly in some ways, Arnotts was sold to Campbell's (soups) of the USA quite a few years ago, amid some controversy about selling off the farm and is now owned by American investment company KKR - see link below.
Today, they have modified their advertising to simply..."There is no substitute".
This is one of a number of old signs at Scotty's Garage.
Two VIA Rail trains are at Brockville, Ontario on this day with no VIA power to lead. A Canadian National MLW RS-18 has varnish on the mainline while an EMD GP-9 hols on the lead to Smith Falls and Ottawa. I remember some sort of connecting trains that would make moves here. These might have been it. I believe a small engine house or facility was here to house the Ottawa power. These Ottawa trains eventually were LRC strongholds that came straight from Toronto.
As the IHB sees a sudden surge in traffic, two former NS GP38-2s are filling in at Gibson building autorack trains. IHB 5627 is seen here hard at work on the West end.

If you had to put a freight engine as a substitute on a passenger train, I doubt you could do much better than this. Rio Grande GP30 No. 3002, built by EMD for the D&RGW in April 1962, brings train No 18 to a stop to load passengers in Provo, Utah the morning of May 18, 1979.
Now class, my name is Mr. Winter and I will be your substitute teacher for the next few weeks.

This Empire Builder left CHI with Charger 300 leading and this OLS unit trailing. Due to a malfunction, they were swapped out on the east side of Whitefish, Montana. Here, the train has finally made it into Whitefish depot and is doing it’s station work. I hope Amtrak purchased the extended warranty package on those Chargers?!
