And when finally the bottom fell out
I became withdrawn...
The only thing I knew how to do
Was to keep on keepin' on...
like a bird that flew...
Tangled up in blue.
Part 21
I slept outside that night and it was surprisingly warm, enough so that I left my sleeping bag unzipped.
When the sky began to lighten in the predawn I awoke and wandered back into the basin floor for sunrise photography. With how much I loved last night's photograph I tried to find a similar composition this morning, one that showcased the stark, glacial polished granite and the towering Primrose Lake Spur of Mt. Pickering. I found several different spots that worked, but none of them I felt were good enough. So I continued searching. The Spur was soon gently touched by the sun. I searched for a shot that I liked more but I struggled with it, so I returned to the first spot and just sat down on a large boulder so I could just enjoy watching the sunlight slowly crawl down the Spur while listening to the silence of the high mountains.
It took a long time for the light to reach the basin floor, but where I was shadow still lingered. I began to wander back towards camp. Along the way I reached a small stagnant pool with the jagged ridge of Mt. Corcoran reflected in it. I waited here until the rising sun peeked out from behind two of it's spires.

For More Info:
On reflection, maybe I laughed a little bit too loudly. But by now I was probably bordering on delirium. I hadn’t slept in over twenty-four hours and I’d just come down from the summit on a wave of jubilation mixed with exhaustion. What I really needed was to fend off yet another barrage of feverish sales pitches. I can’t tell you exactly how many times over the last few hours I’d declined offers of camel rides. Or how often I’d turned down the opportunity to buy a fragment of the mountain I’d just stood on top of. Earlier, as we’d queued up to open our backpacks for inspection and walk through an airport style metal detector that was presumably here to make sure none of us was about to blow up this famous mountain, we were surrounded by a host of jabbering tribesmen, dementedly waving their wares in our faces and asking prices higher than the invisible peaks that were cloaked in the inky night above us. I didn’t need a headscarf - really I didn’t. I had brought my fleece lined beanie hat. I didn’t need gloves either. Not with a camera to operate at the summit later on. And what were those strange squares of cloth the locals seemed so convinced my life would be incomplete without? Did they think I might have time to stitch a patchwork quilt together while I waited for the sun to come up? Was someone else waiting at the other end of the queue with a basket of reasonably priced needles and thread? As I sat on a slab of flat rock outside the walls of St Katherine’s Monastery, quenching my labours with the last dregs from my water bottle, a voice emerged from the melee, thrown in my direction. “What’s that, a sleeping bag?” The man, a local Bedouin wheeler dealer, had taken an interest in the blue stuff sack at my side.
“No it’s my coat,” I replied. I’d needed that coat up there earlier. It was very cold in the hours leading up to sunrise at the summit. “Look at these!” he went on excitedly, brandishing two matching halves of a lump of quartz. “Very cheap!” I replied politely but firmly that thank you, I wasn’t interested. I could have had any number of rocks from that mountain by now without paying for them. By this stage, having done what I’d come here to do, I just wanted to get on the bus and go to sleep on the long journey back to Sharm el-Sheikh. I'm ashamed to say I'd lost interest in the fabled burning bush and the chapel on the inside of the huge monastery walls. “Ok, how about a trade? You give me that in exchange for them?” he asked, nodding in the direction of the blue stuff sack. It was at this point that I burst out laughing in response. Two lumps of quartz that I didn’t want in a swap deal for my treasured down filled winter coat. I’m not going to tell you how much I paid for that coat. I gave him a vague idea though. “No, not Egyptian pounds! That wouldn’t pay for a cup of coffee.” I asked him if he had a car to throw into the deal. He looked a bit confused at this. I made my escape while I could. It’s a very good coat and even after a hefty sale discount it’s the most expensive garment I’ve ever invested in. I intend to carry on using it each winter until one or the other of us expires.
I’m not keen on people who try to sell me things. Beyond a nod and a brief exchange of greetings, human interaction really isn't my thing you see. If a sales assistant spots me browsing in a shop and asks whether they can help, my usual response is to run for the exits. And when, as they do in Egypt, the salesman regards bartering as a way of life, I’m at even more of a disadvantage. Here, where tourists have to run the gauntlet of traders to make their way onto the mountain trail, it can be a bit scary for people like me. There were plenty of enthusiastic customers around, ready to part with a few dollars for a trinket to take home with them. We don’t like clutter at home. My souvenirs were sitting happily in my memory and saved on an SD card. Once you make it onto the trail, you’re forever trudging up towards the summit of Mount Sinai in the pitch of night, listening for the tell-tale gastric groans of approaching camels, their keepers trying to sell you a ride to the bottom of the last flight to heaven. Suddenly they loom over you in the darkness, inches away, filling the air with their musky ruminant scent as a lugubrious dark eye gazes disinterestedly into the beam of your head torch. Every kilometre brings a pit stop with a covered seating area, plying its trade, offering hot drinks and snacks for the weary traveller. Even the hole in the ground “facilities” have a callow youth stationed by the entrance, relieving visitors of one US dollar before the visitors can relieve themselves. Finally, after the penultimate section of the climb, a kilometre long flight of six hundred and fifty steps to a small plateau just beneath the summit, there are four or five of these small coffee stops huddled together, one or two of them selling genuine Mount Sinai rocks. Why not add a few extra pounds to your bag for the hike back down to the monastery? Why not just pick up a rock from the ground? Only at the end of another hundred steps do you finally escape the din of commerce. Here at the summit is where everyone is lost for words.
Ali had already made it clear that she had no intention of joining me on this trip. She dislikes pressure selling just as much as I do, and unlike myself she had previous experience of this weird and wonderful old country. In the early nineties, long before I met her; when she was just a slip of a girl, a Luxor trader offered one hundred camels in exchange for her. Luckily for me the bid was turned down. One hundred belching, hungry flatulent camels. What on earth would anyone do with one hundred camels? Open the world's most challenging petting zoo? Lead a party of thirsty thrill seekers across the Sahara Desert? Train the fastest ones and enter them into the Cheltenham Gold Camel Cup? The mind boggles.
I’ll never regret getting on that bus and making the long journey into the mountains of the Sinai Desert. It’s a memory I’ll cherish. But in so many ways it wasn’t an easy ride. Even without climbing onto the back of a camel. Of course the hard sell is how these people earn a modest living. But there are plenty of far more willing customers than this one. When I returned to Sharm el-Sheikh and into the arms of the subject of that one hundred camel bid, I described the trip as fourteen hours of purgatory for forty-five minutes of raw landscape mountain morning magic, and that’s how I’ll always remember it. The highlight of the holiday amid the depths of the toughest hours, of which I spent almost nine squashed onto a cramped coach. I’d survived the gauntlet and now I could quietly celebrate and look back on the adventure through a pair of rose tinted spectacles that I didn’t buy from a Bedouin tribesman. Back on the slumbering sunbeds with a good book and unfettered access to the first world cocktail menu. Mostly in Egypt my alcohol intake outscored the daily step count, but much like today’s ascent, the graph suddenly went steeply upwards before plunging down to pina colada level once more. Days one to eight, zero steps. Day nine, thirty-two thousand steps. Days ten to fourteen, zero steps. Or something like that anyway. Mind you, even by the pool you have to tell the same man that you don’t want a massage at least twice a day every day. It’s hard work running the gauntlet.
I'm sure this looks familiar from the version I posted for the Slider Sunday group, this was the starter image. I included it in the first comment along with the shot I took the night before.
The complete history of the Wigwam Villages follows from Wikipedia ( just in case you missed it the first time around);
The Wigwam Motels, also known as the "Wigwam Villages," is a motel chain in the United States built during the 1930s and 1940s. The rooms are built in the form of tipis, mistakenly referred to as wigwams. It originally had seven different locations: two locations in Kentucky and one each in Alabama, Florida, Arizona, Louisiana, and California.
They are very distinctive historic landmarks. Two of the three surviving motels are located on historic U.S. Route 66: in Holbrook, Arizona, and in San Bernardino, California. All three of the surviving motels are listed on the National Register of Historic Places: the Wigwam Motel in Cave City, Kentucky, was listed in 1988 under the official designation of Wigwam Village 2; the Wigwam Motel in Arizona was listed as Wigwam Village 6 in 2002; and the Wigwam Motel in California was listed in 2012 as Wigwam Village 7.
Frank A. Redford developed the Village after adding tipi-shaped motel units around a museum-shop he had built to house his collection of Native American artifacts. He applied for a patent on the ornamental design of the buildings on December 17, 1935, and was granted Design Patent 98,617 on February 18, 1936. The original drawing includes the swastika, at the time a symbol associated with Native Americans or often worn as a good-luck charm.
Seven Wigwam Villages were built between 1933 and 1949.
Village 6: Holbrook, Arizona
Arizona motel owner Chester E. Lewis built this Wigwam Village in 1950. It is located on the historic Route 66, at 811 West Hopi Drive in Holbrook, Arizona. Nearby places of interest include Petrified Forest National Park, Meteor Crater (Barringer Crater), and the Grand Canyon.
The plans for this motel were based on the original of Frank A. Redford. Lewis first became aware of the distinctive wigwam designs when passing through Cave City in 1938. He purchased the rights to Redford's design, as well as the right to use the name "Wigwam Village," in a novel royalty agreement: coin-operated radios would be installed in Lewis's Wigwam Village, and every dime inserted for 30 minutes of play would be sent to Redford as payment.
Wigwam Village 6, Holbrook, Arizona
The motel is arranged as a square, with 15 concrete and steel wigwams on three sides and the main office on the fourth, flanked by two smaller sized wigwams; there was also originally a gas station on the complex. The individual units are called "wigwams," not "rooms" or "tepees" or "cabins." The units are numbered from 1 to 16, (there is no 13). The base diameter is 14 feet (4.3 m), with each unit 32 feet (9.8 m) in height. Behind the main room of each unit is a small bathroom with sink, toilet and shower. Current rooms contain the original restored hickory furniture, two double beds, satellite TV and a window-mounted air conditioner. In keeping with the authenticity of the restoration, there are no telephones or ice machine. Vintage restored automobiles from the 1960s and earlier are located throughout the parking area. Small green metal benches etched with the words "Wigwam Village 6" are scattered throughout the complex as well.
Lewis operated the motel until closing it in 1974 when Interstate 40 bypassed downtown Holbrook. Two years after his death in 1986, sons Clifton and Paul Lewis and daughter Elinor renovated the motel before reopening it in 1988.
The Lewis family continues to run and maintain Wigwam Village 6. Near the registration desk is a small room that contains much of Chester Lewis's memorabilia, including a collection of petrified wood.
Wigwam Village 6 has been listed in the National Register of Historic Places since May 2, 2002.

I made a two day trip in the Khao Sok National Parc, Thailand.
First we passed with a longtail boat the Chian lan Lake to this floating bungalows, where we slept overnight. This place was so great, because its in the middle of the jungle and the only thing you hear is perhaps some gibbon monkeys.

SWANK:
I must have passed by the city of Antwerp, the capital of the municipality of Antwerp already. My GPS said so. Must have slept. The train slowed down at this point. Got enough time to take some shots. Its one of those times that you're half awake, that somehow you thought you were dreaming -- and would later confirm that you're not because the photo is in your camera.
This place is Kalmthout, a municipality in the province of Antwerp. In Dutch, the province is called Antwerpen and Anvers in French. This is a relatively quiet municipality with less than 300 people per square kilometer. Well, Belgium is a small country with a relatively low population density. But never underestimate what this country have had. Its one of the founding countries of the European Union, and the EU has its headquarters in Belgium. And don't forget NATO -- the headquarters is also in Belgium. NATO - is the North Atlantic Treaty Organization which includes the United States armed forces -- formed back in the days of the Cold War as an opposing force of the Soviet Union's Warsaw Pact.
In a few minutes, the train will cross Belgium's northern Border, and into Roosendal the first city north of the border crossing -- one of the southern cities of the Netherlands. Netherlands is a country that is as popular as the mystical North Sea -- its boundary to the west.
Kalmthout, Antwerp
Belgium
“I slept my sleep—, “From deepest dream I’ve woke, and plead:— “The world is deep, “And deeper than the day could read. “Deep is its woe—, “Joy—deeper still than grief can be: “Woe saith: Hence! Go! “But joys all want eternity—, “Want deep, profound eternity!”1
-Friedrich Nietzsche, “Drunken Song
“As if I'd slept a thousand years underwater I wake into a new season. I am the blue lotus rising. I am the cup of dreams and memory opening--I, the thousand-petaled flower. At dawn the sun rises naked and new as a babe; I open myself and am entered by light. This is the joy, the slow awakening into fire as one by one the petals open, as the fingers that held tight the secret unfurl. I let go of the past and release the fragrance of flowers.”

Where time slept, and dreamt
of who, of you
mountains levelled, playing fields now tempt
a victorious venue
golden trophies and winning ways
held aloft in momentable haze
polemic victory can now appraise
upon such polite sun rays
honey-coated light drips sensually
between the fingered bough
temptingly, a desire flying freely
into arms where crowns endow
spirited claims of purity fame;
a sun sets by the Oak bud embrace
the rêve de poussière flame
for wheresoever it may retrace
reawakening a déjà vu vista
the unearthing of your soul in my heart -
a quaquaversal silhouette in your volcanic lava
I flow before our Season's depart.

SWANK:
I haven't so much as slept a wink
through the coldness of winter
those days pass through
a most arduous phase indeed
unsure itself, we've reality to pursue
the shard of sleepless thought
cuts open the nauseous new day
bleeding hopes dry and stupefied
what now for the love of living?
is the heart merely to be pacified?
it beats within for a warming need
like Iberian sea breezes, it pleases
fighting back the subjacent frosts
so damaging to the faith of summer
and the fruitful supplies it exhausts
winter's survival is a heart empanoplied
the pleromatic power of Sun and Moon
is the embodiment of the cycle of life
in which we observe to play a part
and learn to overcome our own strife
we are self-sacrificing beings it must be told
through the greed and all-consuming corporations
we grovel and plead for advanced material need
forgetting what made us truly happy from the start
misplacing loyalty in a soulless bid to succeed
unsubstantiated values in technological whirl
false handshakes from selling freaky smiles
fixed is the expression of human plunder
building ever more avenues leading to disaster
the last sovereigns of decline and blunder
climate change in the heads of short-sighted leaders
who are we to believe our importance matters?
upon a planet outreaching our every grey cell
millennia have accounted for our microdot
which we believe contain all answers to tell
if we will make it or not, how prophetic!
we are the great deconstructors of thought
returning a full stop to the beginning
not once, but time and time again-
a sentence of wholly unwritten sinning
come now all ye faithful song-sinning leaders
we endure your spin, sin, and utter chagrin
politics is the season; a constant winter
of discontent, politicians a musical instrument;
a trumpet blown by themselves, a diktat of political winter.

TIME TO FINISH MAKING A BAJILLION TATTOOS.
We never slept on this trip. Well ok, we slept a little...during the day. Sun went down? Almost completely dark? Nonsense, let's keep shooting!
We learned right away just how much light the moon, even though only about a quarter lit, provided in the valley. Add to that a thin layer of high coulds and the sky took on a nice marbled texture. And of course, being close to a road, road traffic added even more light to the scene!
...And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled....

Slept the night literally on the edge of this cliff in order to be there for the Dawn. I was happily rewarded with this excellent sunrise. It didn't last long though as the sun quickly disappeared behind the cloud on the horizon. Still, it was good while it lasted.

Bella slept on my lap with a paw over her face. When she started to wake up, she uncovered one eye to see if I had noticed. She has only started to do this fairly recently & it melts my heart as my Daisy, Bella’s predecessor, often did the same.

I barely slept last night due to a sudden onslaught of snot. Honestly, I felt like I was drowning in mucus all night. Yes, I know that's gross. I'm sorry. My alarm went off before 6am so that I could get up and get ready to go to East Lansing for the Michigan/MSU game with Andy. Now, the last thing I wanted to do was go anywhere but back under my comforter to sleep the day away. But I went. And it was cold. And it rained on us. And Michigan lost. And I've been absolutely miserable all day with this god awful cold that has rocked me like an unexpected tsunami. It's not even 8:30pm and I'm already in bed, ready to pass out.
Did I mention that I'm supposed to be running in my big 5k tomorrow morning? I honestly don't know if I'm going to be able to do it if I'm still feeling this horrible. My nose is running like a faucet and I feel like a Mack truck has backed over me about twenty times. But I won't give in yet. Andy and my mom think that I should skip it. But I feel like if I skip it that I've failed. I don't know what to do. And I'm too exhausted right now to think straight enough to figure it out. Right now I'm hoping beyond hope that I miraculously wake up feeling peachy keen again. Everyone send some mega good vibes this way if you don't mind.
365 Days (self portraits): Day 186
We almost slept in for sunrise at the Quiraing, but made it there just as the sky lit up pink. We had to dump the car at the side of the road and run up onto the cliff to grab some shots before the colour went. Unfortunately we were in such a rush I hadn't changed my iso from 4000 from the northern lights the night before, and I left my tripod in my car (along with my keys still in the ignition!)
This shot was just at the tail end of sunrise, once I'd pulled myself back together and sorted out my settings/car/tripod!
I slept in the car that night to witness the sunrise at the Saarschleife.
When I got up at 4am and had this view including a hot-air ballon I felt like the X in the sky was marking the perfect place to be for me in that exact moment.
Slept in his shop so he could get up oily in the morning. 😂
Owhiro Bay again this time with an oil paint layer from Photoshop. I like the fun coloured houses so I brightened them up a bit as well.
i slept over at rachael's house and spent the whole day with her today! we went on an adventure, and meet up with one of our friends. we also went to a pet shop and looked at the adoraaaable little puppies. and i got a buttload of prints printed for you guys, fourty to be exact. it's safe to say today was a great day.
i don't want to leave singapore :(
