Starting to use Instagram much more frequently, find it great fun and very easy to capture events and moods. Check out the twitter feed.
Mist on the Blackstone River
Beautiful crisp New England day and saw this mist on the Blackstone River and just had to take a couple of shots. I only had the iPhone 4S with me but it worked out well.
Nostalgia Sunday
Was doing some cleaning in the basement and came across two ‘blasts from the past’ which I thought y’all might be interested in.
First it’s my original Sinclair Mk14 SC.MP Microprocessor kit. This was bought new and assembled by me and had many happy hours programming in machine code for the SC/MP. This also included the cassette tape interface, 8154 with an extra 128 bytes of RAM and the single step modification, also, as the original keyboard was absolutely rubbish, I added an external one on veroboard. Mounted everything on a persepex base and it still works! The crystal is a bit slow to start sometimes but what can you expect after 30+ years!
The next item was my original Sinclair LED watch from 1975, for those who remember them this was the first build it yourself LED watch with Sinclairs usual high quality (or NOT!). Much to my surprise, it still works, case is beaten up and I’ve lost the strap and battery back but it works!
Ahhh, happy days!

October Snow Storm
Interesting weather we’re having!
Woke up this morning to these scenes, more reminiscent of February. At least we didn’t lose power although many others did

Another Autumn Walk in New England
Went for a walk yesterday through the woods along an old cart path, came across this little spring and thought it was neat.
On the way back I saw this giant granite boulder and just thought from this angle that it resembled the head of an ape, can you see it?? Particularly the nostrils and mouth.

Grafton & Upton Railroad-Hopedale
Some photo’s of the G&U location at Hopedale.
Nothing much happened at this location since they cleaned up the Draper sidings, wonder when they will start work here?

Grafton & Upton Railroad
I see that the G&U is now starting track renovations southwards from Upton Depot. I caught them working on it today just by Blackstone Valley Tech.

Tilton NH
I was up in Tilton NH over the weekend and took a few shots that I thought I’d share with y’all.
The weather was a typical NE autumn day and very nice cloudscapes although had to watch for the sun shine!
I particularly like the images of the hardware store as they seem to evoke the epitome of small town life.
Let me know what you think!
