Another from before social distancing: Namdaemun Market in Seoul a while back.

Ethereal Angelic Female Vocals Yep. I have a fetish fer' em'. So, on a more upbeat note (and hoping for mermaids aren't sirens...) Paul Oakenfold - Southern Sun (DJ Tiësto Mix) We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming. Thanks for tuning in.

@toby No problem with speed here, but something has gone very weird with the display of your site. See the screenshot below and note that all your buttons are in Chinese... Given your mad web skilz, I expect you'll have this fixed within a day (i.e. by April 2).

"Woah...where am I and what year is this?" Mickey asked the man he thought might be a nurse, based on the decor of the room he was in.....

Made some more progress all that is left on the woodworking is one window to trim, some cabinet doors and crown molding.

still use them..Is that bad?

here is one from out west as you guys seem to have lost interest in the NE.

Starting to go a bit stir crazy.. decided stealth mission was in order... Completely sef contained. the one time I fueled up I wore a mask and gloves. disinfected the dorr handles etc after disposing of my gloves.. Drove really far and found real winter. Went to a place in the middle of no where so didn't have to worry about other climbers.. the climb is a little less than 400ft.. easy but exposed and beautiful. I was super carefull on the walk off. It was too fast to butt slide so I hiked it. Did two laps.. Amazeing how despite skinning a few mts and going on good hikes after two weeks of no climbing my legs felt like it was my first time out for the season.. My arms never get pumped on the first few climbsa of the season but my legs and feet get really pumped. its just completely different use than hiking. Insane how civilized life is with the tiny home. got changed into fresh clean clothes, slipped into sandles because my foot hurt enough I didn't want to wear shoes. Cooked dinner and a cup of Chai and had a nap. this shot of the white Mtns is really cool perspective. It feels a lot more like Colorado than Vermont. First time I saw this I could not believe I was in VT. it must be about 5k ft elevation difference from this spot 

Harley (the cat) has been practicing "self distancing," since he moved in with us. No butt-sniffing, or cat packs for him.

did it over heat??

@David-Harris said in History of Rock Climbing: Not to say that those areas are dull and boring, or that the book is crap, just that he's being a bit dishonest with his readers. He is not using the same criteria you are. With my river running background, including Hell's Canyon, I never thought it was 7.900 ft. deep, but the facts you disagree with on elevation differences in California, are widely accepted. As a historian, he uses what he finds, hopefully with some fact-checking.

@toby you must be in quite a state if you think All around This World is upbeat and cheery

Have you taken it for a spin?

@LynneLeicht -- hey there say, lynne... very soft, yet, powerful shot here... thank you for sharing...

I absolutely feel that late 90s (Ergo) modern leashless tools and Modern fast one handed placing screws completely revolutionized ice climbing. There simply is no que on Le Promenade without that gear. especially the screws. The Chouinard, Lowe snarg and salewa screws I started with bear absolutely zero resemblance to modern screws in the way that they climb. None! Its like trying to compare a rolling block .45-70 to an AR15. The only thing they have in common is a rifled barrel and a metallic cartridge. Simply no way that ice climbing is main stream today without the advances in screw design and tools. You had to have a few screws loose to enjoy ice climbing with knuckle bashers and shitty gear. now its safe , fun and easy just like sport climbing. The consequence being that is way to crowded out there.

@RussWalling Is this a trick question.....:) list item

While I didn't make this instrument, I appreciate it for its playability, sound, but also its artisitc beauty. Those who do such fine woodwork have my respect!

Saudi-Russia oil war is a game theory masterstroke. Boo! Hiss!! Available subscription only. Might have to send them a buck. Anyways, if perchance any members have access to this I'd be curious as to a synopsis. Thx. @jgill This is the kind of maths I used to dig trying to model, on a much simplified level, way back in the day when one of the lucky few with access UC San Diego Super Computer Center. Think Michael Gilpin, Jared Diamond, Ted Case, Bradbury & Vehrencamp, Krebs & Davies, etc. era. Very interesting and ground breaking work at that time. Lot of intellectual stimulation. Loved it.

Maybe more than you were looking for, but I was watching the UCSD tv channel and oddly enough found myself following right along stochastic variation in circadian rhythm https://www.google.com/search?q=stochastic+variation+in+circadian+rhythm&client=safari&channel=ipad_bm&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj_ha-C_7PlAhWDsp4KHTBNBeAQ_AUIESgB&biw=1100&bih=1328
