Travelling in comfort

Via Via

Relaxing on the way back from Ottawa last week on the train. We were lucky to grab seats that had no one across from us, so there was room to stretch out for the five hour trip.

Out of boredom I started snapping shots of things as they zipped by. After a while I got pretty good at timing the shots. This is not one of those shots…

OVAR

Ottawa

Me answering some questions at the end of our presentation for OVAR last week. Actually, Clark did most of the talking as I am a big chicken. I did a turnout build that was projected on the screen behind me in the picture. Overall the evening went well and was very enjoyable, except for the few moments of sheer panic when we both thought the bulb that we had no spare for had burned out on the projector. It turned out to be simply unplugged. It was entertaining to see Clark go into full arrest as he was not aware that there was actually a spare projector there….

OVAR Presentation

Ottawa Valley Associated Railroaders

Last week Clark Kooning and I went up to Ottawa by train to do a presentation of Fast Tracks for OVAR. It turned out to be a lot of fun and I think the presentation went well. We set up an overhead projector and did a complete turnout build for the group, live.

As we finished up I thought I would snap a shot of some of the crowd that was there. I believe there was about 120 people or so.
