As my first title coincidentally twinned with my contact Charlotte's image of a monk's statue, called 'Meditation', I have re-named it in respect for her post :-)
When I first arrived in Iceland, it took a while to let the thoughts fully sink in that I was indeed, actually, in Iceland; the number one country I had dreamed of visiting for years. The first couple of days passed with that dreamy, hazy feeling, not quite believing life is real. On the third day (a month ago today as I write this), my team and I went to visit some waterfalls... We were at Skógafoss, where I set up my tripod and camera while staring in silent awe at the cascading water. I began to shed my layers of scarves, coat and sweaters in preparation to put on my red dress for this self-portrait... and then I patiently waited. Waited for the sun and clouds to line up correctly to light the waterfall just right. Waited for the surrounding tourists to finish taking their photos. Waited for the breeze to blow the mist away from my camera lens. After almost 45 minutes, I finally saw my chance. I slipped off my shoes and ran towards the falling sheets of water, camera clicking away behind me... and was suddenly engulfed in the freezing, falling mist as I spun around joyously at the bottom of the falls. It was that very moment, when my clothes were soaked through and my feet kept slipping between rocks and I felt absolutely frozen, that my mindset finally changed from "dreamy, hazy" to "Oh my frognoggin' firecrackers this is freaking real" before I had to run back to the safety of my coat and scarf. It was one of those moments where I felt most alive... My heart felt so big and yet the rest of me felt so small. I have greatest respect for these places in nature and I simply can't fathom how beautiful this world is. It blows my mind over and over again.

The Summer Joust is back! Which of course means I had to build some custom prizes. This vignette is the first in my series of four that serve as prizes for the collaborative Exotic Feast category.
Extra thanks to Marin for feedback during the build process.
The Adventurers Guild in Alnya has a long standing tradition of a grand feast during the summer solstice. It’s not just a celebration, as their extremely competitive mindsets saw it quickly develop into a challenge.
The master chefs, some of whom are capable adventurers in their own right, select teams of the most skilled and daring heroes to gather the rare ingredients needed to create dishes of exquisite flavor. The team responsible for creating the most delectable dish is rewarded with a generous bounty of gold and also first choice of quests until the next annual feast.
Rogdul, a vaunted goblin burglar, was tasked with obtaining some of the rare mushrooms only found in the deep caverns of Nocturnus. Equipped with a dagger and good supply of torches, Rogdal ventured for hours through dark, claustrophobic tunnels before coming across a small stream that led him to discover a cavern and most importantly the coveted mushrooms!

When I was born the seed was sown
I will not obey, my life is my own
Battle rows, which do enslave me
Exposed lies that enrage me

In recent times, CP has been relatively bland with the motive power that is being used on trains but this was a major exception to the normality of the CP trains.
CP 686 prepares to depart Bensenville with CSXT SD40-2 8094 and SD70MAC 4507 leading the way.
The Anomaly is a paradigm shift
The discovery of an anomaly, truly alien and sentient, demands nothing less than a fundamental paradigm shift in our approach to exploration and discovery. We can no longer suffice with mere observation, passively documenting phenomena from a safe distance. Instead, a dynamic engagement with the unknown is imperative. This requires fostering a mindset of continuous adaptation, as our current frameworks of understanding will undoubtedly prove insufficient. Furthermore, intellectual humility becomes paramount when confronted with a cosmic force that defies our established notions of life, consciousness, and existence. The sheer scale and nature of this entity necessitate a complete re-evaluation of our place in the universe, challenging anthropocentric biases and opening us to possibilities previously deemed unimaginable. Our scientific methodologies, philosophical tenets, and even our societal structures must evolve to accommodate this profound reality.

I can’t believe I allowed myself to be disrespected so many times just because I care about other people’s feelings more than mine.

Fuck around and find out.
