Krafla is an area of about 10 km in diameter with a 90 km long fissure zone, in the north of Iceland in the Mývatn region. Its highest peak reaches up to 818 m and it is 2 km in depth. The Icelandic word "víti" means "hell". In former times, people often believed hell to be under volcanoes. The crater Víti has a green lake inside of it. The Krafla area also includes Námafjall, a geothermal area with boiling mudpools and steaming fumaroles.

Thanks for 1,000 views! :) x
A stunning example of what you can find by stopping off on your journey to the more popular areas of scenic beauty. En-route to Trollstigen, this gentle stream was discovered on the roadside, in-between magnificent hills and mountain ranges.

I took this shot of my wife Sammy in Vermont in 1964, during a 1,700-mile, 10-day scooter trip through New England and Nova Scotia, by far the most fun vacation we've ever gone on.
So recently i was at Boston Comic Con and they were selling "custom lego minifigs". They are fake but really cool so i picked some up. They can be for trade for the right figures
I can't read the inscription, it has a identifying mark. I think the first name is Ian.
UPDATE: Ian Lamb is the Artist. He made this piece 27 years ago, he is a friend of my ex husband's family, and he was at my wedding, but I only ever saw him that one time.
UPDATE 2: If you read the stamp viewing it from standing on the left vertical of the photo, it is a captial letter "I" and L" for Ian Lamb.

While I love Mike Psiaki's 6-wide JP Explorer, I have a special place in my heart for 5-wide vehicles and the challenge they present. I've wanted to do this ever since I did my Jurassic Park Jeep.
PADDY: *Reading.* “And when the Wee, Small Bear came to look at his bed, there was the bolster in its place; and the pillow in its place upon the bolster; and upon the pillow was Goldilocks’ pretty little head.”
SCOUT: “Paddy! Paddy, what are you doing?” *Alarmed.*
PADDY: *Pauses reading.* “I’m reading a faerie tale to our new bear friends, Pearl, Sapphire and Flock. What does it look like, Scout?”
SCOUT: “But you can’t, Paddy!” *Stamps paw.*
PEARL: “Whyever not, Scout?” *Concerned.*
SAPPHIRE: “We asked Paddy to read us a faerie tale, Scout.” *Sad.* “Why can’t he?”
FLOCK: “Mama Kim told us that Paddy reads faerie tales very well, Scout, and he does.”
PADDY: “Why thank you, Flock.” *Blushes pink beneath plush fur.*
SCOUT: “Oh I agree, Flock! Paddy does read faerie tales very nicely, but he can’t read you that one!”
SAPPHIRE: “But I want to know what happens to the pretty little girl with the golden curls when the bears come home and find her in their bed. Hopefully they gobble her up for trespassing!” *Giggles.*
SCOUT: “Paddy you can’t read them that pro… prop…”
PADDY: “Propaganda, Scout?”
SCOYT: “Those lies about that no-good-break-and-enter-home-wrecker Goldilocks!” *Stamps paw.* “She was naughty!” *Nods head emphatically.*
PADDY: “But they aren’t lies, Scout. The faerie tale readily admits that she goes into the Three Bear’s house without asking, eats porridge that isn’t hers, sits in chairs that aren’t hers…”
SCOUT: “And breaks them with her fat bu…”
PADDY: “Scout!” *Looks seriously at Scout.* “And she sleeps in beds that aren’t hers either. I don’t see how that is propaganda, Scout.”
SCOUT: “The story says that she is a nice girl, but she isn’t! She was naughty!” *Stamps paw.*
FLOCK: “Well, naughty or not, we want to know whether the three bears eat her at the end of the story.” *Excited.*
PADDY: “I’m sorry Scout, but Pearl, Sapphire and Flock wanted me to read them Goldilocks and the Three Bears. You are outvoted on this occasion.”
SCOUT: “Well!” *Indignant.* “There is no accounting for taste! You should be reading a nice, wholesome faerie tale, like Little Red Riding Hood.” *Nods seriously.*
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" on the 2nd of February is "bears", and this is a theme that is made for me! If you follow my photostream, you will be familiar with Paddy (my Paddington Bear whom I have had since I was two years old) and his friend Scout, as they often feature in stories and adventures on Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday and sometimes other days of the week, such as this photo for today’s theme. Pearl, Sapphire and Flock (the little bears) are a more recent addition to my ever growing bear family. Scout had a vehement dislike of Goldilocks, as you can see, so for the theme, I couldn’t resist having Paddy read the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. I hope you like my choice for the theme, and that it makes you smile.
My Paddington Bear came to live with me in London when I was two years old (many, many years ago). He was hand made by my Great Aunt and he has a chocolate coloured felt hat, the brim of which had to be pinned up by a safety pin to stop it getting in his eyes. The collar of his mackintosh is made of the same felt. He wears wellington boots made from the same red leather used to make the toggles on his mackintosh.
He has travelled with me across the world and he and I have had many adventures together over the years. He is a very precious member of my small family.
Scout was a gift to Paddy from my friend. He is a Fair Trade Bear hand knitted in Africa. His name comes from the shop my friend found him in: Scout House. He tells me that life was very different where he came from, and Paddy is helping introduce him to many new experiences. Scout catches on quickly, and has proven to be a cheeky, but very lovable member of our closely knit family.
Pearl and Sapphire are both little Russ Bears, and Flock a vintage posable bear who arrived on Christmas Day 2023. They travelled from Mama Kim's house in Alabama all the way here. All of them are sweet little bears who are tenacious and a bit cheeky, but full of love and snuffly kisses most of all.
Well I've been quiet recently and that has to do with school. I'm now in college and I don't have time to build like before. I have to take a break from Flickr, but I will be back for school breaks as much as I can. Don't worry though, Kamino is in the process of being worked on and I will post it soon, within the nest couple of days. This is just something I took a picture of since I'm visiting home for the weekend. I promise I'm not leaving Flickr, I just simply must focus on school. Get excited! I'm gonna unleash Kamino, and it's by far my biggest accomplishment.

Science fiction
Do we really live in a real world? It is really very difficult to know, we sense things in the frame of our senses. Our senses have limited perception areas.
A world ( universe ) could be created electronically like ours. We can't do that now. Maybe after a few billions of years later, we could be able to do that. Our advancing knowledge of science and technology, further biological development of human beings, AI help and our "will" not to die could make it possible. This is the best way to be immortal. If we could be able to create building blocks like atoms "and / or" quarks and fundamental forces electronically, a universe could develop from itself like ours with help of AI. If the occurred system couldn’t go further, we could make some corrections.
Maybe aliens who existed a few billions of years before us have already succeeded to create an electronic wold. Maybe we are the aliens who have existed a few billion years ago before us and living in an electronic world. The electronic world they created might need some correction to stop the sufferings which they are still existing. The humans in their "first life" might not know that we don't die. When the computer is old, the same software could be loaded in the new one.
Important is being conscious of our existence and have a world to live in.
What indications do we have to support the story above?
1. Nature did it with its way and created the world we are in now. It didn’t have capabilities to create an electronic one, made us conscious in a horrible world ( in which we die, kill, suffer, etc ), but it gave us brain to correct it. Aliens could have had powerful brains to create an electronic world.
2. We are like a computer. We need a software to run us. We get this in our development by our society. Some of us have better computer and software, but we all are malfunctioning sometimes and in some situations.
3. Everything what created in our universe were made very smartly, very complex processes created the stars, galaxies, animals, humans, etc. To create these complex processes, it needed “thinking”. There is a thinking process in our universe. Thinking process is essential like building blocks and fundamental forces to create things. Aliens might be creating this thinking process.
Thinking is the major process in our universe to create things, just the laws of physics and chemistry not enough. Without thinking, aliens couldn't be able to create a city like on my picture.
