song of the day: ultreia, by oliver schroer
ps - catching up on streams tomorrow - no, i mean it this time!!!
in a few days, I will be packing up my bags and heading to new york to what I hope will be a wonderful and memorable experience. Each time i have come into the city, the people I have met, the places I have been were and continue to be a life changing experience.
New York city breathes life into these dusty and collapsed lungs, makes the impossible seem possible, and turns dreams into reality.
So wish me luck friends. I have a feeling that this trip will bring back more than just memories...
AND DON"T FORGET THE OPENING NIGHT PARTY!!

FIRST LET ME THANK EACH ONE OF YOU FOR YOUR VISITS AND COMMENTS WHILE I WAS GONE! YOU TRULY ARE THE BEST!
Spent some time at the Hacienda this weekend, Hope you had a lovely and relaxing one yourself's.
These beautiful birds run freely about the grounds of the Hacienda, and actually I do believe they think that it is their own domain,
If you like him, I have more of these beauty's including a very rare white one!

And he answered saying:
You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dans between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.
We weren't able to get everyone in the photo unfortunately. However last night was nothing short of a amazing night! The love and support was truly felt and respected.

Fushimi Inari Taisha (Fushimi Inari Shrine) is a Shinto shrine dedicated to Inari, the god of rice, sake, and prosperity. "Fushimi" is simply the location, added to the name to distinguish it from other Inari shrines.
One of Kyoto's oldest (founded in 711 AD) and most revered Shinto shrines, Fushimi Inari serves as the headquarters for all the 40,000 shrines dedicated to Inari across Japan. Fushimi Inari is noted for its remarkable sight of some 10,000 small torii (shrine gates) that arch over a long path up the hill behind the shrine. It takes about two hours to walk along the whole trail, and there are nice views of Kyoto from the top.
So I went a bit further into the steampunk, but this time thinking outside the common "English" styled steampunk that most people think of first.
From left to right:
- An Outlands Railway Guard: The harsh tundra known as the "outlands" is a dangerous and harsh place, home only to nomads and bandit clans. However, this inhospitable place is also host to important, expansive railway networks between several countries. The trains that cross the Outlands need to be guarded heavily, and require the most proficient weaponry the industrial revolution has to offer to achieve this.
- Mountainous Scout: As the infamous Empire spreads across the lands, the nations of the northern mountain regions have started to send out scouts to make sure the Empire isn't setting up FOBs or sending their own scouts into the mountains. The development of multi-spectrum goggles has made seeking hidden enemies much easier, and amplified the ability of the already-competent hunter/trackers that these scouts are.
- Dessert Raider: As the Empire Warily creeps into south-eastern deserts, the native kingdoms retaliate by sending raiding parties to attack imperial camps. The raiders attack at night, using silent weapon such as bows, pikes, swords, etc. to kill any watchmen and set fire to supplies, sabotage transport and equipment, and kill as many people as possible. They are also known for stealing weapons and other gear from the camps they raid; useful devices and technology they wouldn't usually have access to, such as multi spectrum goggles (which help them see at night), and respiration devices (which can help manage smoke inhalation, from the fires they set).
- Nomadic Nobleman: nomads have been ever-present throughout the lands and generally kept to themselves in the past. however in the midst of the industrial revolution, various nomad clans have began to unite and form complex hierarchies. New technologies have made the life of these nomads much easier, namely the invention of steam based transports, as well as guns to better defend themselves. Despite their lack of land ownership, the United Nomad Clans have the power of a small country, and continue to grow bolder than ever before.
- Southern Principality Soldier/Guard: The Empire isn't the only powerful entity on the globe, in the tropical south regions, a thriving nation has its own distinction, with a proud culture and history, strong military might, and dominion over several other lands. With its own share of technological advancements, the soldiers of this principality are well equipped, with advanced firearms and even potent chemical weapons.
So that's that, I hope you like them!
