This visit to Cairnhead's 'Striding Arches' was a last minute decision on the way back from a trip further north. It's a stunning place. Exceedingly remote but definitely worth the visit. There are several arches (other than the one in the byre) and walking to them all is a fairly serious undertaking, but the nearest one is only a couple of miles. They're all on hilltops; part of the idea being that you can see the others from whichever one you're at.
We have our Adventure Zone all set up with ramps, cones, bikes and of course the whole thing wouldn't be possible without kids.
Babylon, ca. 604-562 B.C. In molded and glazed brick, this colorful striding lion, its mouth opened in a threatening roar, once decorated a side of the "Processional Way" in ancient Babylon. The Processional Way led out of the city through a massive gate named for the Mesopotamian goddess of love and war, Ishtar, whose symbol was the lion. Each year, during the celebration of the great New Year Festival, the images of the city's gods were carried along the Processional Way, past some 129 lions such as this one, and out through the Ishtar Gate to a special festival house north of the city.

I use the pips to show dice availability for the frames. Orange represents the one-shot rockets, green cones are the green d8s, and the red squares are red d8s.
The tower is for scale (I use 1 plate = 1 foot), the black is an average human @ 6ft, the dark gray is a 1-story building @ 12 ft, and the light gray goes up to 25 ft.

This was another Masters of The Universe toy that I received for Christmas. Stridor (stry door) was an armored war horse that Battle Amor He-Man rode (He-Man decked in metal). The horse also had two elevating laser guns on the side and one rotating tail gun at the back of the horse. When Stridor first came out, the horse was by itself, but later would include Fisto (another allied hero) who rode Stridor as well, image enclosed.
Not to be outdone, Skeletor also had an armored warrior horse named Night Stalker Cauchemar, which was released in 1984.
Stridor only appeared in 1 episode of the hit 1980's cartoon series He-Man and The Masters of The Universe.
