And With A Knowing Wink...

I'm back in Ohio this week, with enough time on travel day to visit the Air Force Museum. Now who just might this girl be? I'm not telling ;).

What Was The Kettle Moraine Railway

Once upon a time, there was a nostalgic little railway in a picturesque village. It featured a steam locomotive and carried passengers on short jaunts. But alas, the Kettle Moraine Railway, short of funds, and at odds with local government, ran for the last time in 2001. This is what remains of the rolling stock. I have other photos (including the car you saw the other day) that I will post in the coming days. Believe it or not, their website is still up.

Many of the links to the left are of fellow bloggers have also have linked to me and helped me in so many ways, so thanks to them in particular. Please visit their sites; we're all in this together.

Jalopy

I saw a picture of a well preserved antique automobile in another blog, and I thought that perhaps I could do better. Might need a coat of paint.

A Timeless Place

Annapolis, Maryland. One of the most beautiful towns I have ever been to. The state capitol of Maryland, home of the United States Naval Academy. This place was once the capitol of the nascent United States and was where George Washington resigned his commission on December 23, 1783. It drips with history. I can't wait to go back.

Tuesday Morning

Ethereal

A Slight Tangent

Thanks to Fark.com, I came across a really neat collection of photos of a ship graveyard. It really is nature working at her finest: taking manmade objects and slowly reclaiming them. You can see them here.

That Was A Big Dollhouse

North Utica, Illoinois. A tornado actually did move through this town, 18 months ago. Some businesses have taken longer to recover than others.

An Apolitical Take On The Miers Nomimation

The nomination of Harriet Miers to replace Sandra Day O'Conner on the United States Supreme Court has caused a considerable amount of debate. George F. Will, in today's Washington Post, offers what I feel is an apolitical take on the qualifications of Mrs. Miers.
