Incinerator Shoot 5

The Fuzz still has a few more from this Incinerator Shoot.
So here we go…
First the actual furnace…
And…
Some controls perhaps?
Stairway…
To where?
Some kind of latch?
But what about this one?
Is there a story behind this?
Could be kinda dark…
Might be time to get out of here…
There's the door…
The Fuzz thinks it's time to use it.

In The Dark

While staying at the Main Street Inn here at Topsail Beach, The Fuzz and His Sweetie have a great view from their room...

Especially of the "Sound" side of the island.
After dark the lights across on the mainland can easily be seen.
The Fuzz noted these flashing tower lights...
But he also noted this other blinking light, below the horizon.
(He apologizes for not having them all in one view, but it was just too difficult to time a shot to get simultaneous flashes!)

Anyhow...

Having seen the lights at night, he knew pretty well where to look in the daylight to find the sources.
So he got out the binoculars.
It wasn't hard to find the two towers.

Just across from Topsail Beach is the Intracoastal Waterway.
And this was the clue to the origin of the lower light.
When he checked the area where he had seen the light, no source was seen, so again the binoculars were put to use.
Here's a look.

If one looks carefully,* he may see, just above "Point A"...
The source of that mysterious blinking light.
  

*Due to the limitations of his equipment, the Fuzz regrets that this is the best he could do.

Wow

The Fuzz saw this on BBC.

Einstein's gravitational waves 'seen' from black holes

 

"... the detection [of gravitational waves] was one of the most important developments in science since the discovery of the Higgs particle, and on a par with the determination of the structure of DNA." 

" ...ripples in the fabric of space and time..."


Pretty cool.

The Fuzz thinks we don't know the half of it.

Dry..? Not Dry..?

It has been kinda dry out here in the woods lately.
And Hot as well.
But when The Fuzz walked down to the small creek behind the trailer yesterday, he was a bit surprised to find this situation!
What happened to the water?
There were a few pools left here and there...
But No Flow!
The creek bed was still pretty wet, and when he poked his cane down into the sand, some water did seep into the hole.
But, Yikes!
In the pool pictured above, several small fish were swimming back and forth, with nowhere else to go.
After some thought, and a word with His Sweetie, The Fuzz decided to try and move at least a few of those guys up into the Garden Pond.  It is already stocked with some of those "feeder" goldfish (8 for a dollar) from the pet store.
The guys from the creek weren't any bigger than the current residents, so The Fuzz figured they might get along okay.
And as things were looking at this point...
they were
DOOMED!

Not having any sort of net, The Fuzz tried to use a bit of window screen, and a bucket to catch those little guys.
But it didn't work out very well.
As soon as he got in there, he stirred up so much muck that it was impossible to even see them, let alone catch the boogers!
So he gave it up as a lost cause.

Then...
This morning, he took a look to see how they were doing.
This time...
What the hell?

No water yesterday...
And no rain since...
But now???

Where'd this come from?
And The Fuzz's little friends seem to be doing okay without him!

Well, one can't complain about this of course,
But it does seem a bit strange,
At least to The Fuzz!

Watching You

So...
Who's Watching?
While in that Big City, the Capital of Our Fair State, The Fuzz's Sweetie noticed this Thing staring at them.
It seems you never know who or what is watching you.

So you better watch yourself!
