    My baby is in a few pieces, so I'm out for a while. It's paint time. Still haven't fully decided on a color yet... :/

      As an added note, this property is along side the actual tracks and there used to be a station somewhere on the property.
      Looks good to me, but it's not my call. I hope it is, I'm thinking of going on a night ride. I got the yard mowed and now I'm ready to mow down some miles. I picked up a cheap digital camera from a garage sale. Kodak EasyShare C140. Not sure how to up load, it didn't come with instructions. Guess I'll have to look it up.

          Tag is good. Go for a night ride. Here's my view right now.

            We have a few candy factories around, but they are all over an hour away. That isn't going to happen tonight. I might go for one of them after church if the skies are cooperating. Chocolates to the west or citrus candies to the south.

              After a google search, we actually have one in Reno!
              I will have to investigate.
              Yummy!

                If chocolates qualify, then I've got a good one here. I'm going have to wait to find out if it qualifies though before posting a new tag.

                This is actually the place I was looking for but couldn't find because the street was blocked off from the direction I was travelling. Actually, I was on the wrong block to start, and got snookered by a cul-de-sac.

                280 East 6th Avenue, Vancouver, BC. Opened in 1887, the Vancouver Brewery was the largest of the local industries. The building was constructed in 1903 as one of several expansions to the brewery. It was converted into 14 artists live-work studios in 1992.


                So here is my tag. What do you think?



                and this interesting feature in the "Choklit" Park:



                Purdy's was founded in 1907 and moved into the facility in these pictures in 1982. This place always reminded me of Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. The Steampunk contraption out front is/was a fountain, but I haven't seen it flowing in a long time.

                  Check the pipes, there could be a fat kid stuck in there.
                  Looks like a candy factory to me. Whats next?

                    It will be the rare adult in Vancouver, who didn't give a Box of Purdy's chocolates to their mother on Mother's Day, in their youth.

                          Yeah, half a day gone already. It's bad not being able to get a tag, but it's even worse when there is no tag to get.

                                Because the original paint is faded, and clear badly chiped, and just all out fried. Was going to wait until the winter tear down, but got my 2k a few weeks back and has been burning a hole in my mind ever since. So, she is apart and primed and waiting for me to decide on a color. I'm thinking silver, or the fail safe black. Before the end of the day she is going to have color.
