It tourned out to be a little too large but I couldn't make it smaller.
My first version was smaller

Bones surround us now...
We had continued on for only a short while before stopping to rest. There was no way to tell what time it was in the sunless cavern, but I was beginning to feel very tired, and I estimated it was at least past sunset. So I called to Djiimi that we were going to stop and sleep a little. I had picked an ideal-looking spot close to the tunnel wall that would guard our backs. We sat down and I began to prepare some more rope to secure Djiimi to a nearby stalagmite when something in the distance caught my eye. I couldn't make it out though; the lighting in the tunnel was terrible, as there were only a few of the glowing crystals left, and all of them were on the ceiling (Out of the worm's reach, I guessed).
“Hold on,” I said, “I'm going to check that out.”
We got up and walked a few yards over to the strange mound. It appeared to be a giant semi-opaque purple pod sticking out of the ground. It was cone shaped and big enough to fit a person inside...I glimpsed a pale form inside and gasped as I was faced by a skull through the dull clear surface. I raced over to Djiimi and slipped her gag off.
“Is that...HER?” I asked, panicked.
“No, you can tell that's a male skeleton by the contours around the jaw bone and-”
“Okay! All I needed to know,” I said hastily, replacing her gag before she tried anything. Her despondent voice disturbed me. She sounded-broken, as if she didn't have any happiness left in her. Even when I tied her up she retained a little of her ever-present cheerfulness...
We walked back to the chosen resting place and I finished the odious duty of tying Djiimi to the stalagmite. Then I settled down to sleep. I felt guilty for wasting time sleeping when Quane was in mortal danger, but my tiredness dragged me down and my common sense helped it by assuring me I would be useless in saving Quane if I was too tired. My eyelids slid into place and blissful peace overtook me...
Orrid...
I loved you...
And now we're doomed and you're dead and...No!
I just hope they don't do to me what they'll do to Reldan...
I hope they kill me.
The Milkweed pods are open and sending out their seeds. I found it interesting that the pods were in different stages of being open.
This shot has a bit of a funny story behind it but mostly for the English speaking people. We were doing a walk along the Vintgar Gorge, near Bled, Slovenia, when I saw a sign for this waterfall. The sign read "Poo slap". Since I don't speak Slovenian I couldn't tell whether that was a joke or not. Slap means waterfall in Slovenian but poo??? So I approached the waterfall with caution and found this beauty and forgot about the mental images I was creating in my head. It turned out the real name was "Pod slap" so I guess some English speaker thought it would be funny to make the name of the place look like "poo slap".
Este es el bellísimo salto de agua (slap en esloveno) al final de la garganta de Vintgar, cerca de Bled, Eslovenia. Hicimos una caminata a lo largo de esta garganta y pese a la belleza del lugar me pareció que había demasiada gente. El haber visto a chicas con vestidos y zapatos de moda al principio del camino ya me hizo sospechar que iba a ser una de esas atracciones turisticas de masas. Sin embargo casi nadie llegaba hasta el final y bajaba una pendiente muy inclinada para ver esta maravilla de salto de agua.

Seed pods from a Crape Myrtle tree. I think they have a certain beauty all their own. These seed pods replaced the colorful flowers that were present most of the year.

When the seed pods of the lupines dry they pop (audible) open and curl, giving some momentum to the seeds as they disperse. I shelled some for the seeds to save and give to neighbors as well as spread across the yard. Looking down on the stem of opened pods is like following a spiral staircase.
"Milkweed Seed Pods" by Patti Deters. This photograph of a native milkweed (Asclepias) fluff was taken from my Minnesota garden in early fall. The dried pointy seed pods split open to reveal the fluffy tails on the brown seeds. presented here in a vertical format.

This is the fully matured seed pod ready to fly. The upper Green is the safety strong layer which provide compete protection and nourishment to the seeds while the nature is in progress. The upper layer is hard green rubber like surface which have a light green upper color. The seeds are white in earlier stage then turn brown peach like surface and color. the silky hairs are the lift which take the seed in the air to take it to the new areas.
The whole process take 30 odd days i love the colors and the seed. Good luck to all of you and i hope my work will provide knowledge and entertainment both to you. Thanks

“Memo poder “ the power’s memory by Tchop
Is one of my work just to show how the power come of each experience that we had known and stock in our memory and when we are inside is like another magic world. I really love draw it's my best passion.
We arrived in Uruguay just in time for mid autumn and early winter weather. By now, our time schedule is very far from our original outline and experiencing the Southern Hemisphere for the 1st time takes a little thought and adjusting. Our weather reminded us a bit of September in Portland. Leaves changing, sunny and pleasant days, cool nights and passing showers to keep a person thinking in layers and never being far from a light jacket.
These classic 'pancho' stands and chiviterias are peppered throughout the city and part of everyday life for many. I love the look of the vintage polished aluminum stands like these and at night they are almost like a lonely space pod awaiting a new destination.

Ayer como curiosidad del día, el mítico y ya conocido por todos, el siderúrgico vacío Sagunto-León vino traccionado por las 269.020 y 269.065. La verdad que estuvo entretenida la tarde de ayer, con 8 mercantes y risas sin parar.
