Sunday Photo

This is one big honkin' log:

In fact, to get enough resolution, I had to stitch together a panorama of this one. That's a full-sized flat car it's sitting on.

It's part of a The Northwest Railway Museum in Snoqualmie, Washington. There are a number of railroad cars and locomotives there, which run from the late 19th Century through the 1970s. Here's a shot of some of the cars and locomotives that are waiting to be restored:

If you're ever out there to check out the falls, you might want to spend an hour or two looking them over.

Click on the pictures to enlarge. Enjoy your Sunday.

You're welcome. I think old growth in much of the northern U.S. was like that at one time. I remember seeing drawings of logging operations back in the Northeast in the late 18th or early 19th Century. There were trees almost that large back there, too. You won't find any now.
