The sun has just started to hit the waterfall. The dark areas just to the left of the water are actually shadows cast by the water as it falls.

Before the rest of the ballons take off for the Mass Ascension a few balloonists volunteer to check out the winds aloft.

From the UP Facebook page posted on August 14, 2012. They used this photo to go along with the description. Photo must have been lifted from my Smugmug site.
The red light in question a lot; On UP #844 was used on high-speed passenger engines and were for use while standing in stations so oncoming passenger trains would not enter the particular track they were occupying. The lights were designed by the Mars Headlight Company and were basically designed for flagging both in station tracks, as mentioned above, and on the mainline. If a train went into emergency the red light, which was a working wigwag by the way, would automatically trip and start working without the engineer having to manually turn it on. Some have never seen the "mars" light on the 844 on...so here.
The mars light can be taken as a "final stop NOW"..or maybe the track it's on doesn't have a working signal or it's on an older track (since we do excursions on older lines and routes sometimes)...but most importantly, don't forget. The engine is from the early 1940's..therefore technology was different and so were rules. We simply are keeping the original engine and making sure the public see's what it was like.

Can you spot the Lynx? He ran across the road in front of the bus which is the only reason the bus driver knew to stop. This guy was really hard to see and I didn't even know I had anything until I got home and looked at the images on the big monitor. Of the 15 frames I shot this was one of only two where you could tell there was anything there.

View of Mt. McKinley from Stony Hill Overlook in Denali National Park. The road is the McKinley/Denali Park Road which is the only access to the park.

This is Hwy 34. Normally this is the road up and over the mountain but in the winter they close it since it's impossible to keep it clear. Hiking is allowed with a permit.

This beautiful 60 feet long, 5 feet high waterfall should get a lot more year around attention. There is no place nicer than sitting on a rock near the base of Deep Creek Waterfall on a sunny Spring day.
Pillsbury Crossing is a low water river crossing where vehicles following Pillsbury Crossing Lane drive a 100' stretch through a few inches of running water. The Falls are just a few dozen feet down river from the crossing.

This 35' waterfall is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Kansas. It is formed by the outlet from Geary State Fishing Lake and is only active in the spring or after a heavy rain.

![James Barney Marsh (1856–June 26, 1936) was an engineer and bridge designer born in North Lake, Wisconsin. He was a graduate of Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts in Ames.
He is known for reinforced concrete arch bridges, which he holds a 1911 patent for, throughout the United States. An example is the Cotter Bridge in Arkansas. The Big Creek Bridge in Oregon is similar in design. Several of these bridges remain and are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
Hundreds of Marsh "Rainbow" bridges were constructed in the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s because of their popular design and appearance.
Marsh is buried in Glendale Cemetery, Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa with members of his family.[1]](https://ddandb.org/wp-content/uploads/cache/2023/02/2013-06-McDonald-Andrew-Image-02-scaled/1506061156.jpg)

Santa Fe Lake Falls was formed by the dam which created the 5.2 acre community lake. The Santa Fe Lake offers fishing for blue gill, black bullhead, green sunfish, channel catfish, crappie and largemouth bass.

The Chapel on the Rock (officially, Saint Catherine of Siena's Chapel) is a popular tourist landmark in Allenspark, Colorado, visited by thousands every year. The chapel is located on the grounds of the Saint Malo Retreat Center, the retreat center for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Denver, near Mount Meeker. In 1999, Boulder County designated the chapel as a historic site.
Pope John Paul II prayed at the chapel during his visit to Denver for World Youth Day in 1993. Afterwards, the chapel received his personal blessing. The Pope later hiked in the surrounding woods and spent some time at the Saint Malo Retreat Center.
The Saint Malo Retreat Center was destroyed by fire in November 2011, but the chapel was not damaged.
