Jack_Tar Posted April 19, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Didn't know this about the Flying Scotsman... In 1924, it was selected to appear at the British Empire Exhibition in London, and had been given the name ‘Flying Scotsman’after the London to Edinburgh rail service which started in 1862, but this is not it.... This is..... In 1969 it set off to the United States on a British promotional tour. In total the trip visited seventeen American states The train ran from Texas to Toronto, and when Flying Scotsman made a trip to San Francisco in 1971, it had travelled 15,400 miles in the United States. It made a rare appearance near me from the 13-19th April, so I had to go and see it, I'm going to show my age now, I remember as a child travelling on a steam train.

Rare pierces Posted April 24, 2017 Author #13 Share Posted April 24, 2017 In 2002, we came upon Cow Parade Las Vegas by accident and I was an instant a fan. The blend of art, whimsy, and humor made for art I could enjoy. Over the years I have followed the Parade around the world and visited one that was fairly local. “Daisy's Dream”, in particular, epitomized to me the Cow Parade's artful silliness by depicting a cow leaping high to catch a thrown Frisbee. (Yes, I own an 8" replica in resin.) First appearing at Cow Parade New York in 2000, she has traveled all over the world. Cow Parade San Luis Obispo was the first time she appeared in one I could attend and I finally got to meet one of the few celebrities I actually respect. Keep dreaming, Daisy. It makes me smile.

WYTinman Posted April 25, 2017 #16 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Still deciding if I should take a Fisheye lens to Alaska. Took a trip to Florida to see the In-Laws last weekend. I think the the lens did well. A proud fisherman and an even prouder mum. Boys always remember that first catch Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zackiedawg Posted May 8, 2017 #19 Share Posted May 8, 2017 When coming to an intersection in the swamp where your levee trail meets an alligator crossing spot...who has right of way? I think most people would agree that right-of-way goes to the alligator, especially a large one: Closeup of a pig frog on a lily pad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
