“Yes, Robin, there are quite a few holes in this roof. I surmised that our planes strayed off course when practicing a bombing run, but then I got this message from the Riddler. It says, ‘What sits and waits for those who can wait no longer?’”
“Holy tough riddle, Batman. However will we figure it out?”
“Luckily, Robin the answer is right in front of you!”
“Do you mean the linemen who service the power lines, Batman?”
“That is an idiotic answer, Robin. You are going to have to try harder if you want to remain my sidekick. What do you see on the roof, Robin?”
“Holy flapping wings! I see birds, Batman!”
“Finally, I mean that is correct, Robin. The answer to the riddle is Vultures. I am going to lower you into the hole so that you can check and see if anything is dead!”
“I am going to need the bear spray, Batman.”
“Sigh!”
Mostly off until Sunday! Have a great weekend, my friends!
Doing what an asphalt muncher does. Munching asphalt while tearing up the road.
Milpitas, California.
I know that the cracks in this asphalt appeared before the plants poked their green stems up to the sunlight. However, I do appreciate how small plants will appear through concrete sidewalks and asphalt. The roots of the plant will take advantage of existing microscopic cracks. New cell growth takes place at the tips of plant roots. As the root system grows and develops, these tips act as feelers, seeking out the path of least resistance for expansion.
Lachung is a town and hill station in northeast Sikkim, India. It is located in the North Sikkim district near the border with Tibet. Lachung is at an elevation of about 9,600 feet (2,900 m) and at the confluence of the Lachen and Lachung Rivers, both tributaries of the River Teesta. The word Lachung means "small pass". The town is approximately 125 kilometres (78 mi) from the capital Gangtok.
The Indian Army has a forward base in the town. Before the Chinese occupation of Tibet in 1950, Lachung was a trading post between Sikkim and Tibet, after which it was closed down. The town's economy has been boosted by tourism in recent years as the region has been opened up by the Indian government. Tourists come from all over the world to visit the town between October and May, mostly on their way to the Yumthang Valley and the Lachung Monastery. Most of Lachung's inhabitants are of Lepcha and Tibetan descent. Languages spoken here are Nepali, Lepcha and Bhutia. During winter the town is usually covered in snow. Lachung is also the base camp for Rhododendron Valley Trek which starts from Yumthang Valley and ends at Lachen Valley.
Lachung has been described as the "most picturesque village of Sikkim" by British explorer Joseph Dalton Hooker in his definitive, The Himalayan Journal (1855). Skiing is conducted in Phuni near this town.
