Long dresses were much in evidence at Sarah Brown's wonderful 50th birthday event last weekend. Jo, Debi & I are somehow managing to stand up straight in our heels on those cobblestones!
Small Business Saturday, Shopping Small and supporting Local in Baker City, Oregon
One of the best ways to experience a community is by visiting the locally owned independent businesses that reflect the unique and local character of the community. This weekend was a great start to what is definitely a different Christmas season. With lots of COVID precautions in place it was great to see so many folks out spreading holiday cheer and supporting local this weekend for black Friday and Small Business Saturday in Downtown Baker City
The small towns of Baker County offer a cornucopia of local and independent small businesses, many featuring locally crafted products that are made in, and in some cases can only be found in Baker County.
Baker City's historic downtown is one of the largest intact turn of the 20th century historic districts in the American West with over 100 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. today the downtown has been lovingly restored and the historic district is now a thriving downtown home to numerous art galleries, restaurants, micro breweries and local independently owned shops, making it the perfect destination for celebrating the holidays and shopping small unique businesses.

Supporting that with the lovely series of bottles of the Hawaiian Kona Beer Co. Oopsies there is an intruder in there, spotted that one?
Can't help the feeling like my orchard is on life support. It is sad to think that once naturally productive soil has been obliterated by past and current cultural practices.
I will say that since its installation the soil is looking better and the trees are responding well.

This year Stagecoach South East is supporting the Royal British Legion by adorning a member of their fleet in an all over white wrap displaying a number of poppies. Dover allocated 15442 KX08 KZN has been chosen which is rather fitting given the towns military and naval history. It's seen here on London Road, River whilst working route 15.

The chassis and frame upon which the Shackleton's hull was fitted was designed as a generic large-scale support-craft platform intended to fulfill a variety of fleet-bolstering roles based on varying mission parameters. Interchangeable pods along the central spine and easily-swappable engine armatures provide much of the necessary versatility to fulfill such requirements as communication relay, fuel transport, medical facilities, and even reconnaissance roles.
The Shackleton itself is outfitted with several smaller supply container pods along the spine, further enabling it to support the heavy and varied needs of its elite battle group.

Collision with wind turbine.
At 11.06hrs on 10th. April 2018, Vos Stone was operating in the Baltic Sea's Arkona Offshore Wind Farm at (transition piece) TP AB01, a wind turbine under construction. While a construction team was making the necessary preparations to feed cables at TP AB01 they were called back to the ship due to deteriorating weather conditions. The return of the team to the ship was carried by means of the Ampelmann 'walk2work' gangway and was completed a littler later. Just minutes after casting off from the wind turbine, the ships master decided to test an emergency control system, which resulted in the loss of control of the ship.
The wind and waves pushed Vos Stone back against TP AB01. The 1st. Officer regained control of the ship shortly before the collision, but there was no longer sufficient time to prevent it. The turbine sustained minor damage, while three crewmembers onboard the Vos Stone suffered minor injuries as a result of the impact. In addition, the damage to the ship was so bad that it needed repairing at a shipyard.
