At the high altitude of Ladakh, one of the greatest attraction for tourists is riding the double-humped Bactrian camels- a remnant of the Silk trade period when Ladakh had a live trade with Bactria (present day Afghanistan and Tajikistan).
Domesticated Bactrian camels have served as pack animals in inner Asia since ancient times. With its tolerance for cold, drought, and high altitudes, it enabled the travel of caravans on the Silk Road.
"I'm always on the top tonight I'm on the bottom
Cause we trading places
When I cant take no more, tell me you ain't stopping
'Cause we trading places." - Usher♫
Just returned home from last weeks Chicago visit. Still a bit suffering jetlag and some blisters on my feet, but overall, a great week and also overall fortunable weather with all included. This one is showing the Chicago board of trade at the end of Lasalle Street, taken from the bridge with that same name. All have a great start into this new week. Thanks, Udo.
HAPPY WINDOW WEDNESDAY(S) !!
Peculiar round windows in an exterior wall of a high-level international bank. The wall is covered wtih what appear to be "thin bricks" of marble. In order to create an abstract, surreal image, I have inverted the section of wall with its windows. .
Location: International Bank of Settlements, Basel BS Switzerland.

The Cow Canyon Trading Post was established in 1949 as an outlet for sales of northern Navajo and other artists works. Unfortunately it was closed when we were in Bluff, Utah earlier this year. But luckily this lovely bench was near the door.
Happy Bench Monday!

Behind the Cathedral in its car park - "The St Paul’s Cathedral grounds become a fluid space of curated chaos. A free meeting place for song, dance, deliciousness and the uncanny."
It was a place to hang out whilst catching something to eat and watch this somewhat weird wall of characters jiggle up and down and in a out to music

The Hagen Open-air Museum (LWL-Freilichtmuseum Hagen – Westfälisches Landesmuseum für Handwerk und Technik; English: "LWL Open-air Museum Hagen – Westphalian State Museum for Craft and Technics") is a museum at Hagen in the southeastern Ruhr area, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It was founded, together with the Detmold Open-air Museum, in 1960, and was first opened to the public in the early 1970s. The museum is run by the Landschaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe (LWL, regional authority for Westphalia and Lippe within North Rhine-Westphalia). It lies in the Hagen neighbourhood of Selbecke south of Eilpe in the Mäckingerbach valley.
The open-air museum brings a bit of skilled-trade history into the present, and it takes a hands-on approach. On its grounds stretching for about 42 ha, not only are urban and rural trades simply "displayed" along with their workshops and tools, but in more than twenty of the nearly sixty rebuilt workshops, they are still practised, and interested visitors can, sometimes by themselves, take part in the production.
As early as the 1920s, there were efforts by a group of engineers and historical preservationists to preserve technological monuments for posterity. The initiator, Wilhelm Claas, even suggested the Mäckingerbach valley as a good place for a museum to that end. The narrow valley was chosen, as wind, water and wood were the three most important location factors for industry in the 18th and 19th centuries.
In 1960, the Westphalian Open-Air Museum was founded, and thirteen years later, the gates opened to the public. Unlike most open-air museums, which show everyday life on the farm or in the country as it was in days gone by, the Hagen Open-Air Museum puts the history of these activities in Westphalia in the fore. From the late 18th century through the early years of the Industrial Revolution to the highly industrialized society emerging in the early 20th century, the visitor can experience the development of these trades and the industry in the region.
Crafts and trades demonstrated at the Westphalian Open-Air Museum include ropemaking, smithing, brewing, baking, tanning, printing, milling, papermaking, and much more. A favourite attraction is the triphammer workshop shown in the image above. Once the hammer is engaged, a craftsman goes to work noisily forging a scythe, passing it between the hammer and the anvil underneath in a process called peening.
The Hagen Westphalian Open-Air Museum is open from March or April until October.
The Twin Arrows trading post is colorful outside, but trashed inside. This view for Window Wednesday was found along old Route 66 in northern Arizona. HWW
I am going to sell or trade the left Sweet Heart Yasmin and one of the Strut It Yasmin's. I think it will probably be the left one, but I could change my mind ;P
If you have an offer, go for it!! But don't be insulted if I refuse, lol.
