The most recent heat wave has abruptly broken, giving me an opportunity to escape from the Feralgeezer Cave to take in some nature/river vibe down at the favorite accessible riverside hang. We're supposed to get a few more days of blessed cool - even a spat of rain - before the big flaming orb in the sky turns up the afterburners again.

🙋 CALLING ALL BRIDGE NERDS

Last weekend I caught the Rio Vista Bridge over the Sacramento River drop after allowing a giant barge to pass through.

I'm working on my YouTube skills, so bear with me if it's a rather boring and amateur video for the average consumer. Things will get a little more active soon, so please follow my channel! (Thanks!)

Now enjoy some river bridge action and if that isn't your thing, turn up the jams and dance around your living room.

YouTubeRio Vista Bridge lowers 117 feet over Sacramento River after Cosmo Gloria barge passesBy Sarah's Sojourn
Rev.Hans :mstdnca:

Most of the rivers on the North Georgia Plain (the relatively flat part of the east side of the Island, between the Malahat in the south and the Sayward Valley in the north) run fast and cold from the mountains to the Salish Sea (fka the Georgia Straight). The Tsolum, however, meanders. This means that it’s a place for early season swimming as the water, slowed, is even warmed by late spring & early fall sun.
Over the millennia the Tsolum has wandered across its part of the plain, moving soils, exposing gravel bars, helping to create one of the few places on the plain with agricultural opportunity. On its banks the forest is primarily deciduous and short-lived. Fast-growing Black Cottonwood. Red Alder. Broadleaf Maple. In places less disturbed by the river’s wandering, older & longer-lived trees. Garry Oaks & Douglas Firs. And always, closer to the river & its courses, & because of deep alluvial soils, Sitka Spruce & Grand Fir.

@EUCommission How about this:

  • You introduce €1 (Antique / Classical Era) &
  • €2 (Medieval Era) banknotes

as well as

  • reintroduce €500 (modern) bills and consider even issuing €1000 (futuristic) bills amidst #inflation.

In return you can phase-out €1 & €2 coins.

Pretty shure #Rhine, #Danube, #Olives, #Eagle and #Owl would make excellent motives.

Cutting Out Canyons

Over the millennia, the Colorado River has carved some of the deepest and most dramatic canyons on our planet. This astronaut photo shows the river near its dam at Lake Powell. The strip of white edging the lake is the “bathtub ring” that shows how the water level has varied over the years. The deep canyons — over 400 meters from the Horn in the center of the photo to the river beside it — throw shadows across the landscape. To reach these depths, the Colorado River incised its path into bedrock that was tectonically uplifted. (Image credit: NASA; via NASA Earth Observatory)

.. and here are the pictures of the rivers, first the Snohomish, as seen from the Langus Riverfront trail, just behind Everett. Then, the Skagit, as seen from the Skagit Riverwalk in Mount Vernon.
