Re: Dan & Ditty at Boulder City (3)

None of the requested giant termites showed up to help, so I had to tackle the bushes by hand.  Fortunately, much of it was dried out and brittle so I was able to break away enough to get a couple of clear shots.  Dan agreed to open the cylinder cocks & blow the whistle as he passed the short area that was relatively free of brush, so I was able to get a couple of unobstructed portraits:

Now to "PhotoShop" those concrete walls and replace them with some appropriate mountains . . .

For example, there are some rugged mountains just to the west of town which would make a GREAT background for photos. Hopefully, a third rail will be laid on the few miles of line out to Railroad Pass so that next year Eureka can really stretch her legs – and as far away from them - there - those @#$%& bushes as possible:
