Union Pacific 7697 snakes alongside the Gunnison River near Milepost 23 on the N. Fork Branch.
It is heading Eastbound with an empty coal train that will load at the W. Elk Mine which is located at the end of the Branch.
Not necessarily the weather I would have hoped for when UP 1943 came to town, with a passenger special. But it did make things interesting.
More dance lessons happening at the Festival of India.

There's no red-headed stepchildren in the agama's family, because only the head of the tribe gets to show off all of his brilliant colors while the rest of his family has to settle for dulled versions of the rainbow. These African lizards average only about nine inches long, but their bright colors and big personalities are hard to miss.
Color
Commonly called the rainbow lizard, the red-headed agama's crimson crown is just the start of his display. While females and non-dominant males are not so brightly colored, a breeding male has a red or orange head, blue body and a tail that can be either red, deep blue or striped turquoise. The male's colors intensify during breeding season. They also change when he's contemplating a fight with another male. Preceding a fight, his head turns brown and white spots appear on his body. Females and young males are typically brown or olive green with a white belly, and a head that is slightly different color than their body.
Social Organization
Dominant male red-headed agamas establish a territory and govern a group of ten to 20 females and juveniles within the territory. Subordinate males, if allowed to remain, must be submissive to the male leader, such as allowing him the choice spot for basking in the sun. Males fight for territory and control of the group, with the winner gaining the right to breed with the females.
Forester Moth Adscita statices, Derbyshire july 2016. Many thanks to a very thoughtful and enlightened landowner who has fenced off a corner of his field to create a wildlife rich flower meadow. Quite a few of these and lots of other butterflies and other insects.
No Mardi Gras parades in New Orleans in 2021, so people stepped up and decorated their houses to BE the floats- house floats were born! LOTS of fun, and LOTS of houses to see!

The little sensors on the MA3 don't do great in low light situations. I probably should have went full manual here.

"I've battled demons that won't let me sleep
Called to the sea but she abandoned me
But I won't never give up
No, never give up, no, no
No, I won't never give up
No, never give up, no, no
And I won't let you get me down
I'll keep gettin' up when I hit the ground
Oh, never give up, no, never give up no, no, oh
I won't let you get me down
I'll keep gettin' up when I hit the ground
Oh, never give up, no, never give up no, no, oh(...)"

Going on a charter fishing boat for the day, with my husband, was wonderful... the weather was beautiful and we enjoyed a beautiful sunset on the water....
the boat was full and it seemed like everyone was pulling in fish...
we pulled up a few, but no keepers... just photos and memories!!!
UP 7112 east passing through the crestfallen snow at red barn earlier this AM. The sun was peaking through the clouds at various times but none of them were when a train was going by. I like the orange boxes against the white backdrop here as we almost had full sun but was muted due to a passing cloud. At least they put the clean turd on the point of the turd special.
UP 8659 leads a ZNPOA past Bahia and some interesting cloud cover on a windy Wednesday afternoon.

SSNP switching for an hour or so before they let the RCP&E train go west. Just long enough for clouds to roll in. Seen here at Pine street in Mankato.
The low neck posture is a warning to 'back off from me and my babies'...
I liked how the goslings were perfectly lined up for this capture :)
