I bought a pack of lunchmeat that had an Iron Man tattoo inside. This is what it looks like after five days and four showers. I had no idea temporary tattoo technology had so advanced since its crappy Cracker Jacks days. I may have to get an actual tattoo that says "I love temporary tattoos".
0-4-2T 'Josephine' (Hunslet 1842/1936) pauses at Oak Tree Halt with the mixed train, while 0-4-2T 'Saccharine' (Fowler 13355/1912) departs for Statfold station at the rear of the 'top and tailed' shuttle.
Signs of future expansion are evident, with plans for the extension of the 2'0" gauge 'big loco' line alongside the dual gauge field railway in the pipeline...

1945 World War II snapshot of the Rhine River Valley, Germany, a temporary bridge across the Rhine, and the steering wheel of an Allied Forces military vehicle - WW II photo taken by the 9th United States Army Air Forces USAAF, 6th TAC --
Beginning on the night of 23 March 1945, Operation Plunder was the crossing of the River Rhine at Rees, Wesel, and south of the Lippe River by the British 2nd Army, under Lieutenant-General Miles Dempsey, and the U.S. Ninth Army (Operation Flashpoint), under Lieutenant General William Simpson. XVIII U.S. Airborne Corps, consisting of the British 6th Airborne Division and the U.S. 17th Airborne Division, conducted Operation Varsity, parachute landings on the east bank in support of the operation. All of these formations were part of the 21st Army Group under Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery. This was part of a coordinated set of Rhine crossings.
Some of Holloway's 900 series TEs have been pinched recently as buses were needed to kick off the route 34 tender win at Potters Bar. As a result, some former First examples were plucked out of storage and sent to HT to make up the shortfall, being route bound to the 91, expected to be for around eight weeks. George and I had this one, TE1746, to Caledonian Road two Saturdays running, it evaded getting photographed last week but I managed a snap shot today, 6/12/14. This one spent it's first 5 years or so at Greenford, where it began life as First DN33606. Following the loss of route E1 and E3 many of this batch have been parked up pending being found new work, though this one did actually get some use at Greenford (and seemingly Hayes) during July and August.

on the back wall:
in a branchless forest populated with eager dialect, even/especially in these anxious times; these retired branches become crutches when congregated. and so like a bottle rocket flying right through our cutout hearts, let these words be everything we could ever want them to be, and these common fears a makeshift prosthesis to sedate our common phantom limbs.
(and when we can get our heavy hearts to love lightly, this house of cards will become a home.)

We have bigger plans for our new closet, but for the moment, we just need a rod to get our clothes off the floor.
Crews have made a temporary DOT facility on the Main St. to neatly organize all of the equipment. It will be here for now, until a building is "built." Once there is a building, I don't know what will happen.

I'm constantly blown away by the intricacies of nature. I love how fragile and beautiful spider webs are. How a spider knows how to make something so perfect is beyond me. And the thing that really amazes me is how temporary it is. I mean, I'll come back to this spot in a few days and the web will be gone. The web has a purpose, and when its purpose has been fulfilled, it's just abandoned and eventually destroyed.
The other day I went on a mission to find the bald eagle's nest along the Grand River in Brantford. As I approached the area I came upon this trail closure. Although disappointed I decided to honor the closure out of respect for the eagle's themselves. Perhaps one day I will return to see them flying freely in the demilitarized zone!

Trail closed to protect bald eagles
MICHELLE RUBY, EXPOSITOR STAFF
February 28, 2009
A portion of the trail system in Waterworks Park along the Grand River has been temporarily closed to protect bald eagles in the area.
Signs alerting trail users of the closing have been put up in locations along the secondary trail in the park, Maureen Sinclair, director of Brantford Parks and Recreation, said Friday.
Sinclair said the city is acting on direction from the Ministry of Natural Resources. A spokesperson for the MNR was not available for comment.
Trail users are being asked to avoid disturbing the eagles, which are protected under the Endangered Species Act. Both provincial and federal laws make it illegal to disturb their habitat.
"They have not been in this part of the country for 30 or 40 years," said Sinclair. "We want to err on the side of caution."
Brantford's Tim Sywyk, along with his wife, Lisette, have been fighting to protect the bald eagles.
"I'm ecstatic," said Sywyk. "Our city has finally acknowledged that we have these birds in the area."
Sywyk said he was there when the signs were being erected earlier this week, adding that most people were being "very good" about respecting the trail closure once they understood the reason for it.
Sinclair said the closed portion of the trail is less than half a kilometre in length and the main trail remains wide open.
The posted signs ask trail users to: "Please protect Ontario's bald eagle population by honouring this temporary trail closure."
The signs will remain in effect until the end of May. Sinclair said city staff will continue to monitor the closure points until that time.
In southern Ontario, bald eagles have recovered from near extirpation in the early 1980s to establish a small, slowly increasing population. They have been seen along rivers including the Grand and the Thames.
"This is a gift because, as far as I'm aware, there hasn't been a bald eagle in Brantford or Brant County since about 1953," said Sywyk.
The Gallery stripped back and ready for the next phase of the development project.

There are cruises, sail boats, cycle tours, mail runs, and an excellent range of walking tracks. Don't miss seeing the Hector's dolphins and other special wildlife on a harbour cruise. There is so much to see and do in Akaroa that you will need more than a day trip.
Title: Temporary Buildings photograph
Date: unknown
Description: This photograph shows the roof of Building "N" in the foreground and in the distance, in front of Coover Hall, are Buildings "L", "S", and "R". Building "L" was a one-story t-shaped building which at various times housed classrooms, a study hall, headquarters for Hild Development, economics, sociology, and engineering. The two quonset type buildings ("S" and "R") housed space for the Statistics Laboratory. All three buildings ("L", "R", and "S") were razed in 1968 when construction of Atanasoff Hall began.

The wasp was in the house so I used our go to method of capture and release: a plastic cup with a piece of cardboard covering the top. After it posed for a few pictures I took it outside and released it.
in his first solo exhibition in spain, artist petrit halilaj has transformed madrid’s palacio de cristal into a giant nest of massive flowers. the artist has connected the temporary installation with the city’s retiro park by opening windows, setting up structures, and placing feeding areas to attract the birds and other creatures inhabiting or passing through the park. ‘to a raven and the hurricanes which bring back smells of humans in love from unknown places’ is the first show inaugurated by the museo reina sofÃa since its closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which interrupted the montage of the exhibition.
Palacio de Cristal del Retiro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Palacio de Cristal
The Palacio de Cristal ("Glass Palace") is a conservatory located in Madrid's Buen Retiro Park. It was built in 1887 on the occasion of the Exposition of the Philippines, held in the same year, then a Spanish colonial possession. The architect was Ricardo Velázquez Bosco.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parque_del_Buen_Retiro,_Madrid
The Palacio de Cristal, in the shape of a Greek cross, is made almost entirely of glass set in an iron framework on a brick base, which is decorated with ceramics. Its cupola makes the structure over 22 metres high. When it was erected, glass and iron construction on a large scale was already to be seen in Madrid at Delicias station (1880), the work of a French architect. However the curved architecture of the Palacio de Cristal is more comparable to the techniques pioneered by the British architects Joseph Paxton (who was responsible for London's Crystal Palace) and Decimus Burton (who was responsible for the Palm House at Kew Gardens).
The cast-iron frame was manufactured in Bilbao.[1] The structure was designed in a way that would allow it to be re-erected on another site (as happened to the equivalent building in London). However, the building has remained on the original site, next to a lake, and has been restored to its original appearance. It is no longer used as a greenhouse, and is currently used for art exhibits.[2]

The Crystal Palace belongs to the Reina SofÃa Museum, and is one of its exposition centres together with Velázquez Palace
