In 1949, the DeGrazias' bought 10-acres of land in the Santa Catalina Foothills, north of Tucson. Soon after Ted and Marion began to build their home on the grounds, at this time there was no electricity, water, or services. All supplies that they needed had to be transported from Tucson. They cooked their food in an old wood-burning stove and took showers outside with water from a bucket. Happy Throwback Thursday!
This week we are going back a decade to 2014 and to AX 532 on Burgh Quay dressed for route 51D to Clondalkin.
Route 51D started running between the city centre and Clondalkin in 2002. Being an Xpresso route, it only runs during the week, in the peak-hours. From 2002 until 2005, its Clondalkin terminus was on St. John's Road West, before moving to Watery Lane / Woodford. For a period some departures operated to UCD Beflield.
AX 532 was new to Dublin Bus in 2006. It was withdrawn in 2019, and sold on to another Irish operator.
For the last few years, this stop on Burgh Quay has only been used by long-distance commercial coach services.

DeGrazia built the Mission in the Sun in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe calling the mission his most durable and important piece of art. “The mission will have no functional purpose. It will be a place of beauty where I can go and hide.” Happy Throwback Thursday!
A visit back to 2008 this week to see the previous tour livery. On the 7th February 2017, Dublin Bus launched the new brand and livery for the Dublin Bus tours, now called DoDublin. This rebranding replaces the current livery which is a two-tone green with a yellow stripe. That livery itself was introduced in 2008 and replaced the one seen here on AV 328. This bus was not part of the open-top City Tour but rather used on the South Coast Tour and based in Donnybrook Garage. In the peak periods it was used on extra services on the main routes from the garage, such as the 145 as seen here. At this time the route still went to Kilmacanogue via Bray Station. The bus did not last long in the tour fleet and within a few years was part of the normal fleet. It is still clinging on in service today but now operates out of Harristown. The South Coast Tour still operates visiting places such as Powerscourt and Glendalough.

An AH-1Z Cobra from Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 364, 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit, hovers above the flight deck of the USS Peleliu during Phibron 3 and the 15th MEU's PHIBRON-MEU Interoperability Training exercise off the coast of Southern Calif., May 31. The exercise is the MEU's first time at-sea as an entire Marine Air Ground Task Force and gives Marines and sailors the opportunity to become familiar working together as a blue-green team.

Finished this today. I think it's pretty busy, but I'm leaving it alone now. My eyes are tired!! On the whole, I think I like it though. Had to stop to change a diaper at one point, so I threw it in this one too, lol. Maybe the beginnings of a recurring theme?
This week we go back forty years to 1984 and KC 75 at the route 27A terminus on Gardiner Street.
Route 27A started running between the city centre and Kilmore in 1967. It reached Coolock around 1983, and Beaumont Hospital in 1988. The route ceased to operate in 1996 when changes took place to route 27. However, it returned to the network in 2011 when it replaced route 42B under Network Direct. This new route operated from the city centre to Blunden Drive via Harmonstown.
KC 75 was new to CIE in March 1984, about three weeks before this photograph was taken. It remained in service until around the year 2000 when it was withdrawn. Although it spent most of its working life in Clontarf Garage, its final years were spent in Donnybrook Garage.

This week we go back twenty years to RV 365 at Dublin Airport on route 230. Route 230 connected the airport with Portmarnock going via Swords and Malahide. It started in 1991 but in 2008 it was merged with the 102 and extended to railway station in Sutton. In 2018 the 102 was taken over by Go-Ahead Ireland.
RV 365 was new to Dublin Bus in 1997 and was withdrawn in 2009. It was sold on to an operator in the United Kingdom, and was still in service in Scotland up to at least 2022.
This bus stop at Dublin Airport has been served by a number of routes and operators over the years. Currently it is home to First Aircoach, with the 102 departing from the other side of the Terminal 1 multi-storey carpark.

This photo is from way back in August, but it is one of my last shoots. I've taken a serious step back from fashion photography recently, not on purpose, it just happened. I got caught up with work, and I am now starting an internship that is going to take up alot of my time.
But I really want to get back into fashion photography, get back into my blog and regularly updating everyone on what I am doing. I seem to write something similar to this a few times a year, but I mean it this time :)
If anyone has any ideas of blogposts I could do, anything you'd like to see. Or if you have any questions for me feel free to get in contact on here or you can email me at emilycharlottegreene@gmail.com or contact me on facebook or tumblr :)
