One of the areas in India that has always intrigued me is the desert area close to Pakistan. The area is called the Thar Desert. Once it was part of the exotic and mysterious Silk Road. I had stumbled upon other areas of the world which were part of the infamous trading route and I then I wanted to see more.
The main city of that era in India was Jaisalmer. I was going to stay in the desert close to the city and the sand dunes.
As in many other countries I have visited, the terrain slowly changes and the sandy land appears mixed in with some green foliage. What I hadn't seen before were these little sand dunes at the beginning of the transition.

A summer storm had moved off leaving behind blue skies. It was my daughters last day of Jr High school. A Fantastic way to represent transitions.
Life's transitions, my friends, they're like the seasons. Just when you've gotten used to one, it changes its tune. One moment, you're basking in the warmth of summer, thinking you've got it all figured out. But guess what? Winter's just around the corner, ready to toss snowballs of reality right in your face. And isn't that just how life works? We sail along, making plans, chasing dreams, only to be hit by an unexpected curveball – a twist in the plot, if you will. It's like the universe saying, "Hey, remember, you're not really in control." So, just as you swap out your shorts for sweaters, remember to embrace life's transitions, because they're the rhythm of existence, the ever-changing dance that keeps us guessing, stumbling, and sometimes even finding our groove.
Just around the north corner of Hollow Rock Resort was this transition of sky to rock I missed when I originally visited in 2017. Undisturbed by global noise and a great place to relax with an adult beverage. It photographs nice too.

Transition from sea to shore. At my favorite place on the California coast, Pescadero State Beach. Between Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz.

Last week I could read the future like a roadmap on the table. Now I'm listening to Leonard Cohen repeat what he told me half a century ago:
"Please understand, I never had a secret chart
to get me to the heart of this
or any other matter"

I woke up this morning to learn that someone I had known for a very long time had died after a long bout of cancer. While the news was not unexpected, I was saddened and am reflecting upon transitions that we go through. This bridge at Maywood seems to be appropriate today.
Namaste.
Since I can't have snow yet ;-), why not look back at the transition from summer to fall. I knew that it would be one of my favorite things about being out west, I just didn't know to what extent.
The color transition began quite silently ... a few leaves changing color slightly as the days began getting shorter and cooler. Before I knew it, most of the colors began to pop with the yellows coming first, then some oranges. Just when I thought it was done with the transition, it truly burst into color. I was in my glory, especially with the trees in my yard that I could watch all day. Until the inevitable happened ... the winds began to blow them all away. It was such a sad 3-4 days for me. In my desperation, I began thinking of ways for it to stop, but soon realized this too was part of the change. I just thought it would last longer.
In the glorious days of October, we visited Highline Lake SP in Loma, not far from our home, and took in all of the incredible color. Along the lakeside it reflected gloriously on the waters below. Yep, I stayed there for awhile taking it all in, knowing full well it wouldn't look the same upon my next visit. I was right ... but it sure was beautiful while it lasted. :-)
OK, by now those of you who don't know me are probably thinking "what's the big deal lady?", but those of you who do, are understanding my awe ... and probably smiling or laughing with me. I've witnessed autumn color changes before in my travels, but never real time in my neighborhood. I think I like it.
Thanks for stopping by to view.

West bound on the Madison Sub, a transition consist of 6026 and 4183 heads up an unfortunately uncommon morning run to Horicon. On the approach to the South Wye switch in Milton, T003 will hang a right off the Madison Sub and onto the Waukesha Sub.
Sunny summer days usually mean an 0300-0400 wake-up call looking for something good running. A few times, it would pay off in spades. More often, I was left sleep deprived, questioning why I chose to do this to myself.
But even with every hard loss, I still developed an appetite for those early morning wake-up calls. Venturing out in those predawn hours, I have been rewarded with displays that rival even the most beautiful of cliché sunsets. Deep blues fan out into purple, yellows, and reds as the moon dissolves into the wakening sky. Fog pockets puddle in the low areas and silently rise as silky webs before evaporating in the warm morning air. The transition of night to day is stunning in many ways.
With only about two handfuls of 40 lefts, and only four of those left with PTC, the ex UP 60Ms have dominated the road trains, despite their teething problems. This sudden transition in motive power is a fitting end to a decade of Watco at the helm. If there is anything I've ever learned from this hobby, it's that nothing stays the same forever.
