Re: The Ghan - an Australian rail journey of style and comfort
This looks like a fantastic trip and any reason to go by train is good one to me. Wondering if the place names (Adelaide, Alice, Katherine) recall days of too few settler women for the number of men?

Re: Alice Austen House: Worth a trip to Staten Island
Though I have a particular interest in photography, especially women photographers & their work, I'd never heard of Alice Austen. My eyes tell me men & women often have differing sensibilities that show in the work, not better, just different, & since historically there have been fewer women one must sometimes look harder to find them. So big thanks for this one, Jonathan. https://aliceausten.org/collection/
