#NovemberCountdown to the birthday of Antinous on November 27th: #Antinous as #Bacchus/#Dionysus at #Hermitage Museum #StPetersburg Russia.

So the #Delta/#KLM debacle continues. I can't depart #AMS for #MSP for another 26 hours. Knowing this now, we're moving hotels and are finally free to explore the great city of #Amsterdam. First stop the #Hermitage !!

And I think Delta is going to buy me some new clothes, some meals, and certainly my hotels.

My Seattle home is named "Tasty Toast" because the walls are various tints of brown and it's well insulated. I jokingly referred to the new place as "Cold Toast" and the name stuck. I'm leaning into the idea of designing the built environment to communicate that it's a high cold rocky perch. A place to raise one's glass to cheer a moment of quiet in a fast era.
I was tagging this topic #hermitage but now I'll use #coldToast. Filter as you see fit.

Just put in an offer on a chunk of forest in which to hermetically seal myself. If I'm going to build a retirement cabin then I better do it while I can still swing a hammer.
Anyway, my thoughts turn to what sort of uniform I should wear. Monks wear robes. Some hermits and ascetics wear rags.
For me, though... Paper jumpsuits? Woven mycelium? Time will tell.

As I drive around the Catskills and Taconics looking for forest in which to build a retirement hermitage, I wonder how much of this is fulfillment of foundational desires roughed in while sacked out in a blanket fort, reading "My Side of the Mountain".

À une heure de Lille et Paris, au carrefour des vallées de l’Aisne et de l’Oise, se trouve un tiers-lieu d’innovations rurales engagé pour l’agroécologie, la transition énergétique et le vivre ensemble : « l’Hermitage ». Focus sur un lieu où la ruralité s’inscrit dans une volonté de changer de paradigme. Crise écologique, effondrements, prise […]

Hermitage Castle, in a remote corner of the Scottish Borders south of Hawick. This is a castle with a truly forbidding reputation and atmosphere, and in our picture is oddly reminiscent of the figure in Edvard Munch's "The Scream".

A morning ride to The Hermitage in the Scottish Borders.

A grim fort with a long history and one of the fortifications that apparently contributed to the frequent wars between Scotland and England.

My partner has taken the dug for a gels week in Northumbria, so while they contribute to the general mayhem (three dugs and equally nutty owners) I can induldge in a little more riding.
