Beautiful sunset shots!

On the SE shoreline of Lake Shannon is "Devils Tower" actually a Limestone crusher plant that operated from 1920-1960, all the large concrete structures including upper Baker dam, Diablo Dam, Ross Dam etc were built using lime this regional plant's product since huge amounts of Limestone are in the local mountains.
8 stories high, you enter at the 4th level- I did not explore the lower sections, stayed up in the sunlight.
Spooky cool in my book.

The nearby Gandy Dancer (old slang for rail workers) upscale restaurant, which used to be a train station. One of my past favs.
The Amtrak station relocated nearby and still runs past it to Chicago and then on direct to Seattle/Oakland/LA/Dallas/NewOrleans, or DC/Boston to the east.

My neighbors farm above. You can see the combine finishing the beans. We prefer a more aggressive approach.

I had to pay a HOA fee for Dottie to sniff.

Working on my 2005 BMW 330, I found this little guy hidden behind the dashboard.

What does it do?

Grew up on a dairy farm in NY. We used to be really careful in our fields. Hitting one of these mounds would tear up our equipment. If my family were into guns, I likely would have been a good sniper.

Last night two lots down from me.
Someone missed the curve and went over the cliff.
No body was found, so either they were not hurt too bad, or it was a TikTok
challenge.
This car was registered up here, so it was a local and the speed limit on all association roads is 25mph.
Apparently, there is a reason for the restriction.

IOM TTs. Blowing by so close and so fast feels like standing on the shoulder of the interstate when a semi goes by. I almost dropped my beer.

Driver probably had a few stiff drinks and may have been texting on their phone and crawled out of the vehicle and left the scene so he/she didn't have to be subjected to a field sobriety or breathalyzer test.

What? That's as good a theory as any. :cool:

When they tie the vehicle to the owner, more info may emerge.
