Photo-Finish Friday - More from the Horn


Here's another look at the windswept Cape Horn area.
Regular readers are well aware now that this is one of my favourite sights in the world.
It's buffeted by winds and water and is largely barren and empty but for the bird life.
It's a place to expand a mind and let it touch the world without fear of it impinging on another.

Photo-Finish Friday -- Around the Horn

The general Cape Horn area. Cold, empty, lonely, and one of my favourite spots in the world.

Photo Finish Friday- Cruising Along

The viewpoint at Abraham Lake west of Rocky. It's one of my favourite scenes.

If you nice people will excuse me I'll be gone for a bit.
Mr. Goat and I are away until Feb. 02 on a cruise from Buenos Aires, Argentina, to Valparaiso, Chile, with a stop in the Falkland Islands. We go through the Straits of Magellen and around Cape Horn. I get to wander around Tierra del Fuego.

It's a combination celebration of our 10th anniversary back in September, my 50th birthday in November, and my successful recovery from that nasty bit of business with heart failure last year.

We leave tomorrow. I will leave a nightlight on for anyone who'd like to stop by the blog while we're out.
Please talk amongst yourselves.
I'll see about a fresh post around the end of the first week in February.
