You're mine, ride or die. Forget trophies, doll. We conquer together, scars and all. This world's our playground, waiting to be crushed. Champions by our side, not some dusty metal. Let's take it all.
#TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork
…im Altmühltal.
Täglich schlängeln sich Dutzende Kesselzüge durch die Ortschaften. Dabei zählen Ziele wie Ingolstadt, Vohburg, Saal an der Donau, Münchsmünster oder München Milbersthofen zum Täglichen Brot. Grund dafür, sind die Riesigen Raffinerie Anlagen in besagten Orten.
An einem schwülen Sommertag diesen Jahres fotografierte ich satte 11 Kesselzüge im Licht.
Kesselzüge sind meiner Meinung nach eine der schönsten Güterzüge auf deutschen Schienen. Ob beladen oder nicht, fällt hier nicht auf. Ebenso passen sie zu fast jeder Lok, und das Geräusch von vollen Kesselwagen unter 10 Km/h ist auch schwer zu übertreffen. Für die Anwohner des Ortes Dollenstein sind sie eher nicht gerne gesehene Gäste. Sehr laut ratterte der Flachstellenexpress 95748 aus Vohburg, als er durch die Ortschaft brettert. Nachts ein ziemliches Problem für Anwohner, da sehr zu meiner Überraschung keine Lärmschutzwand den Ort durchzieht.
Der Auslöser Klickte in atemberaubenden 30m über der Strecke, wobei ein falscher Schritt das abrutschen auf die Bundesstraße bedeutete. Dies ist mir zum Glück nicht passiert, da ich es mir auf dem Hosenboden bequem gemacht hatte.
Von der Stelle aus hat man einen grandiosen Blick bis hinter in die Lange Kurve bei Breitenfurt, wo an jenem Tag auch schon fotografiert worden ist. Nachdem ein Zug dort gesichtet wurde, hatte man gute 5 Minuten Zeit aufzustehen, wenn der Zug den Hp erreicht hat zu fokussieren, und auszulösen. HSL schaute mit ihrer 187 342 "Teamwork makes the dream work" vorbei, für den Zug ging es bis in den Frankenwald, ehe ein neuer Fahrplan das weiterfahren gen Osten ermöglichte.
Nach dem Zug sprach System, Wetter und Motivation bände, weswegen wir nach 35 Stunden auf den Beinen den Heimweg antraten.

We had a tiny (I believe the real estate term is "charming") studio apartment in Los Angeles, and when we moved to New Mexico, we got at least 900 extra square feet of living space (probably more like 1,000 sq feet more than we had before). Before we left, we found out that there is no IKEA in New Mexico, and we knew we'd several pieces of furniture, so we went to the Burbank one before we left and moved all our new stuff while still in boxes. We are now IKEA furniture building experts.
This weekend we finished with the two most complicated things - the MALM (hi all caps!) dressers from IKEA for our bedroom. They took hours but look great, and we never have to build them again, ever. All we have to do now is place our socks in them, lovingly and carefully, and enjoy all the room.
With the last in a three-part series on the YCA Graduation Ceremony, (ICYMI, we shared video highlights, a hula dancer, and now some still photos) I extend my heartfelt thanks and alohacongrats to the staff of YCA for all their hard work and send my best wishes for an AlohaMerry Christmas and Happy Holiday Season.🎄
I attended the fall 2020 graduation for the Youth Challenge Academy Class 53 at their Kalaeloa campus on November 25. Hawai'i Youth Challenge Academy O'ahu has been fortunate because they’ve been able to continue on-site operations with the cadets during the COVID pandemic. As I do at all of their graduations, I prepared an Honorary Certificate for each of the graduating cadets and presented a $500 scholarship for one graduate from the Kalaeloa campus. I also contribute a $500 scholarship for one deserving graduate at the Hilo Youth Challenge campus.
As mentioned previously, Cadet Kaylen Kekuewa-Wright was the recipient of the O‘ahu Mike Gabbard scholarship and also performed the beautiful hula dance. After leaving YCA, she plans to continue her studies at Leeward Community College, in the automotive arena.
I love this program. We live a few blocks away from the Kalaleloa Campus, and even though their reveille bugling begins at 4:30 am, I’ve yet to receive any complaints from neighboring constituents. Also, thankfully, I’m not a light sleeper. 😉
As background, Youth Challenge provides 16 to 18-year-old "AT-PROMISE"; students a second chance to obtain their high school diploma and become successful, responsible, and productive citizens. The Academy instills discipline and a sense of self-worth by using military training to significantly improve the life skills and employment potential of young people. The program's eight core components focus on the holistic development of the youth and include: academic excellence, life-coping skills, job skills, health & hygiene, responsible citizenship, community service, leadership/followership, and physical fitness. The five-month residential phase of the program is followed by a year-long mentoring relationship with specially trained members of each graduate's community.
The Academy was founded in August 1994 and is administered by the Hawai‘i Army National Guard. It has campuses in Kalaeloa on O‘ahu and in Hilo on the island of Hawai‘i. Each cycle, the program accepts approximately 150 young people. Since its inception, the program has graduated over 6,500 students with 80 percent of them earning their high school diploma. Keep up the good work cadets, YCA Director Sina Atanoa, and all the YCA staff!

I spoke with a group of Youth Challenge Academy cadets from Class 48, during their tour of the Capitol on April 17th. It was the 4th of 5 groups I'll speak with this session when they visit the Capitol. Class 48 started out with 105 cadets and there are now 97 cadets in this class. I speak every year to the whole class right before they graduate, and made them promise they'd be there for that... I let the cadets know how much I believe in this program and am proud of their commitment to see it through to the end. The military has a special place in my life – especially YCA in Kalaeloa (formerly Barber Point NAS). I told the cadets that I live just down the street, and I have the distinct pleasure of hearing their bugle blasting at reveille very early each morning.
The mission of the National Guard Youth Challenge Program is to intervene in and reclaim the lives of 16-18 year old high school dropouts, producing program graduates with the values, life skills, education, and self-discipline necessary to succeed as productive citizens. In just 5 ½ months, these at-risk teens get a second chance to obtain their GED diploma, while learning important life skills. It's not easy, and many don't make it through to the end. But many of the cadets do, and even continue their education after graduation. Some choose to join the military or enter the workforce. Read through some of the comments left by cadets on the Hawaii Youth Challenge Academy Oahu Facebook page. Their stories tell it all. Hawai’i’s YCA program has been recognized as one of the nation’s most effective for at-risk teens, and its value never ceases to amaze me. The YCA has been changing the lives of young men and women since 1998, leaving a positive mark on the Hawaiian community that will last for years to come. Keep up the good work cadets and see you at graduation in June. #changinglives #hawaiistrong #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #OURfuture #youthchallengeacademy #hawaiinationalguard
