A hut, dark skies and sunshine by the Stone built road bridge over Wetshaw Gill in West Stones Dale.
The whole family is now in isolation until the 20th December due to positive Covid tests, bored, bored, bored, so went into the garden to clear up after Max, non-dog walk deposits and took a few shots......
Last night I dreamt I had forgotten my name
'Cause I had sold my soul but awoke just the same
I'm so lonely
I wish I was the moon tonight

The cow hunter
Puesto de las Vacas is a remote place in Los Glaciares National Park. To get there you have to navigate between ice floes and skirt the glaciers. Some of these frozen giants, such as Seco and Heim, hang from the mountains entangled in the thick Patagonian forest, and others, such as Spegazzini, Upsala and Perito Moreno, plunge into Lake Argentino, the third largest in Latin America.
The isolated place is frequently visited by tourists traveling on cruise ships, where they disembark, take a short walk and visit the old shelter, with log walls and red tin roof, where the Finnish "gaucho" Harry Hilden lived.
This European gaucho settled there with his wife and son with the idea of capturing the cows that belonged to the old ranches, whose lands were expropriated for the creation of the park. The animals, over the years, became wild and were obviously not well regarded in a conservation area.
Harry had a partner who was in charge of transporting the meat on a raft and also carried provisions for him and his family, the only inhabitants of the place. But many times, his partner would forget for weeks to send him what he needed to subsist in such a harsh place, so he decided to buy a raft so as not to be isolated and not to depend on his irresponsible colleague.
His son José traveled to Río Gallegos to make the purchase, but on his return he was involved in a traffic accident and died. After the misfortune, Hilden left Puesto de las vacas.
The Finn lived from 1990 to 1996 and, according to what he said, they were the best five years of his life. It is also said that Harry lives in El Calafate and dreams of returning to Puesto de las Vacas, his place in the world.

Next comes "duck and cover".
We are still rambling around the southwest checking out the least populated and remote places we can get to. The only fly in the ointment is resupply of essentials. We managed to stock up on enough food to last another week before we need to look again. Our nearest settlement has a population of 300 on a busy day; the next big town has about 1800. Hopefully we can restock there.
Eventually we do have to return to ground zero; until then we are remote and isolated.
A common bird for sure, but I just love the isolation of the meadowlark here and the beautiful shades of fall in South Dakota.
My sincere thanks to all who spend the time to view, like or comment on my photos. It is much appreciated!

This is the abandoned rural home Rif. It is one of the most northern structures in Iceland residing on the tip of Rifstangi peninsula. It was abandoned in 1947. Poseidon is slowly claiming the basement as on high tide seawater runs in as is apparent by the sand and seaweed. The top floor is inhabited by a couple of ravens which have been keeping themselves busy collecting bones from the sea shore for decades. They had previously built a pile of them about six feet tall, but after the roof collapsed the bones are scattered throughout the top floor.
I was unable to find a way to reach this place by car so it's about 45 minute hike from the decomissioned dirt road that lies closest to it. Truly a very photogenic place!
