Path below Pico Ruivo, island of Madeira, Portugal.
Pico do Arieiro with its 1818 m (5965 ft) is the third highest peak of Madeira. It is comfortably accessible by car. We hiked from Pico do Arieiro to Madeira's highest peak, Pico Ruivo (1861 m / 6106 ft), and back.
Madeira is a Portuguese island in the Atlantic ocean, approximately 1000 km (620 mi) southwest of Lisbon and 700 km (435 mi) west of the Moroccan coast. Situated in a hot spot area, Madeira is of volcanic origin, formed during several eruptive phases, the last of which ended around 6500 years ago. Madeira is a very mountainous island. With an extent of only 57 km (35 mi) from west to east and 22 km (14 mi) from north to south, and with the highest mountain having an elevation of 1862 m (6109 ft), the terrain of the island is mostly very rocky and steep, except for the high plateau Paul da Serra.
Madeira is also known as the "island of flowers", although most of the popular "typical" Madeiran flowers (like the bird of paradise flower, the hydrangea, the agapanthus and others) are neither endemic nor native. Some of the genuine Madeiran plants are the "Pride of Madeira" (Echium candicans), Canary Islands Juniper (Juniperus cedrus) and the laurel forests of Madeira (the latter one being listed as UNESCO World Heritage).
Madeira is permeated by artificially built water channels called levadas, which distribute the water from the wetter northern half of the island to the agricultural regions of the south. The levadas, mostly built by prisoners or slaves, were cut into the side of the mountains, partly running through tunnels, and enabled for example the cultivation of sugar cane which was the source of the Madeiran wealth during the 15th to 17th century.
Today most of the levadas are still in use, not only for irrigation but also for hydroelectricity. Running across the whole island, they provide a wide network of walking paths, making even extremely remote regions of the island accessible to pedestrians, which is one of the reasons for Madeira's popularity as a hiking paradise.

Madeira hiking holiday July 2013.
The circular area to the right is now concreted. The gardens around this path are mostly evergreen creepers and ferns. Mostly just foliage - I didn't want colourful flowers competing with the dragonfly for attention. But there are lots of Hellebores down below around the circular area. You can see a curved bench seat...and I am thinking of adding a simple table. I have been inspired by a slate topped table by Helen Nock. Will see what happens.
Welch's Flume run's along Clear Creek and during the Goldrush supplied water for farming below. Plus that's tunnel #1, there's 3 tunnels
"The gate above and the unpaved path ahead was a shortcut from the selection ramp by the train tracks to the gas chambers Krema IV and Krema V which was built on the north side of this extermination camp. The shortcut was not meant to ease the prisoners but to make their life shorter, as for most of the prisoners, who dreadly walked this path, ended up in the gas chambers in Crematorium 4 and 5. Some associated this path as the Death Path or the Death Walk. Throughout those days, many have herded along this deadly path; unfit adults, children without the capability to work, babies which were carried by their mothers and many other unlucky victims who served no purpose to the Reich"

I love this funky "Paths of Danger" outfit with the weird spiraling shape on it!
I don't have the tiny binoculars it is supposed to come with.
What does the spiraling shape do? Does it hypnotise you? Is it a radar? Nobody knows!
This Super Joe head is on a WWE figure from Jakk's Pacific, the hip articulation is not as good as on the UFC figures from the same company, at some point I will probably put this guy on a more articulated body.
German cycle paths take you from the road to the sidewalk and back again. And your bike gets a hit every time you cross over, as it never seamlessly connects.
There is no other world
- or if there is, I know nothing of it.
I only know here and now.

This is a piece I painted for my dad's birthday. It is encaustic and oil on a wooden cigar box tray 6 3/4" sq.
