    This is an audio journey through a collection of original Nature photography paired with original poetry & prose. Within you'll find lyrical audio descriptions of photos spanning the landscapes of my home state of Vermont, as well as a curated selection of photos from Virginia. This art is paired with whimsical & impactful poetry in themes of ecology, fantasy, social justice (BIPOC, LBGTQIA+ & Women's Rights, aging & disability), literature, conservation, history, family trauma, healing, & never forgetting pure Fascination with the Wonders of the Universe.This work is intended to create access to the wonders & benefits of Nature to those who may have mobility issues, disabilities (including visual impairment), or who otherwise lack access to the healing power of Nature due to financial hardship; racial, social, or fat-biased exclusion; or other circumstances.Art, Science, Magic, Nature, Truth, Justice, Love, & Creativity: through Astrobridge Artistry, I aim to Communicate the Magic & Wonder of Nature, hoping to make the beauty & healing powers of the natural world accessible & inviting to all. As someone with multiple disabilities & limited mobility myself, I pride myself on taking photos of, & being inspired by, beautiful & whimsical scenes in natural places that are easily accessible. Whether I'm on a dirt road 2 steps from my car door, on an accessible nature trail, or even right on my own balcony in Montpelier, VT in my Magic Garden in the Sky, illustrating that the beauty of Nature can be more accessible than you think, & that you don't need to have the ability to climb a rocky mountain trail to witness the majesty of Nature, is one of my main missions. It is important to me to share my photos & writing with a world with ever diminishing access to the truth & natural surroundings.2 photos are credited to my Mother, Diana Whittington (the Rainbow's Daughter & There & Back Again), & another is in Public Domain; the remainder of the photos were taken by me.

    Range Rover Specification Guide...

    This book is designed to give guidance on the original, ex-factory specifications of the first-generation Range Rovers built between 1970 and 1996. Sometimes known as Range Rover Classics (although the only ones properly so called were built after autumn 1994), these models laid the foundations for the following generations of Land Rover's world-acclaimed Range Rover. Many of these early Range Rovers fell on hard times as they passed on to third, fourth and subsequent owners. Many were butchered beyond recognition when converted into off-road playthings. But now, more than a quarter of a century since the last examples were built, it is no surprise that enthusiasts have begun to restore examples to their original condition. This has created a demand for accurate information about what that original condition actually was. James Taylor has trawled painstakingly through original documents and examined original vehicles to put together all the known facts in one place. This guide will be essential reading for everyone with an interest in restoring or running one of these iconic models that became the foundation of today's Land Rover marque.
