Day 253 - Evil Nightwatchman (Freestyle)

Jour 252 - Vu de ma fenêtre (Night Theme)

Vu de ma fenêtre, y'a que des bâtiments,
Si j'te disais que je vois de la verdure, tu saurais que je mens,
Et puis pour voir un bout de ciel, faut se pencher franchement,
Mais vas-y viens chez moi, on regardera par la fenêtre.

 

Tu comprendras pourquoi je rigole, pourquoi je crains,

pourquoi je rêve, pourquoi j'espère,
Surtout le printemps, surtout l'été, surtout l'automne, surtout l'hiver.

-Grand Corps Malade

Point Reyes Lighthouse

The Point Reyes Lighthouse lens and mechanism were constructed in France in 1867. The clockwork mechanism, glass prisms and housing for the lighthouse were shipped on a steamer around the tip of South America to San Francisco. The parts from France and the parts for the cast iron tower were transferred to a second ship, which then sailed to a landing on Drakes Bay. The parts were loaded onto ox-drawn carts and hauled three miles over the headlands to near the tip of Point Reyes, 600 feet above sea level.

You need to go there to understand what the construction of this lighthouse involved. pretty amazing.

These are tiny capacitors (0.00004 " x 0.00002") used in most modern electronics. To the naked eye these look like sand grains. These are not the smallest ones, there are even smaller ones which are 0.00002 x 0x00001 inch, which are almost invisible!
