The first full day of my Northeastern Pennsylvania (NEPA) visit with family & friends.
After working the BMR Trail Maintenance event, my sister asked if I'd like to go visit Ricketts Glen (of course I said, "Yes"). We hiked down from the Lake Rose parking lot and visited Mohawk, Oneida and Cayuga Falls.

Il villaggio di Chame è uno dei principali centri del distretto di Manang e vi si trovano un ufficio postale,, un ambulatorio gestito da un paramedico ed una casermetta. Il nostro lodge è posto proprio in riva al fiume a ridosso di un alta parete rocciosa dalla quale sgorga un flusso di acqua calda ideale per farsi un bagno ristoratore....

L'escorpí d'aigua és un insecte aquàtic de color marró fosc. Té el cos pla, acabat en una mena de "cua". Aquesta part del cos s'anomena sifó terminal i l'utilitza per respirar. Té 2 ulls petits.
Fa uns 11-22 mm de llargada, sense el sifó.
Té les potes anteriors adaptades per capturar les preses.
Té les antenes amagades. Té ales però no vola.
S'alimenta d'insectes morts o dèbils.
Es reprodueix per ous.
Viu en basses i rierols d'aigües tranquil·les.
Es mou lentament caminant pel fons o entre la vegetació submergida, sempre a una distància que li permeti respirar mitjançant el sifó terminal. Si se'l molesta pot picar. A la nit és fàcil veure'l en zones d'aigua tranquil·la sense vegetació.
Hi ha molta variació entre les mides dels escorpins d'aigua; així podem veure exemplars que són petits (11 mm) i altres que arriben a fer el doble (22 mm).

We went up to NEPA to visit family & friends, eat regional food favorites and visit some special locations to us. Also brought our pup, Rose along with us for her very first Out-of-State Adventure!
First full day of our NEPA trip. We explored places around Kingston (including Kirby Park). In the afternoon, we met up with my Mom & Sister and drove up to Tunkhannock (visiting Creekside Gardens).Our evening was capped off with a walk to Josie's for Italian Gelati, Malted Shake & Custard!

The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

La tappa odierna è stata molto movimentata, prima un posto di blocco militare ci ha obbligati a sostare un bel pò in quanto era in atto un rastrellamento alla ricerca di "maoisti"...poi abbiamo aiutato dei contadini a caricare su di una barella improvvisata una mucca azzoppata...ed infine dopo oltre 25 Km di marcia abbiamo raggiunto Tatopani posto a circa 1100 m. dove abbiamo potuto rilassarci in una vasca in riva al fiume alimentata da una sorgente termale di acqua calda...( 3 photo)
