Focus Project: Deadwood Lodge !!! - ꉂꉂ(ᵔᗜᵔ*)

Q: What is DL?

A: An ongoing multimedia project and worldbuild that I started in late 2019/early 2020!!

Q: Okay, so what's it about?

A: A lot of things! Mainly, it's a year round summer-camp style safe haven in the forest for misfits and other "monsters". The stories most often focus on the many residents of the lodge! Other times, the stories will dip into the fae realm where we follow the journeys of a group of sentient automata on their search for freedom and independence. And still other times, we pop over to Bramwell Enache, a vampire fae and the founder of Deadwood Lodge, and his young friend, Millie McKay, a 12-year old girl stuck in between life and death.

Q: Any themes or tropes or genres you can tell me if I'm short on time but need to be hooked in?

A: Sure! Any of the following fit this project at varying times: found family; summer camp vibes; semi-horror; slice of life; cozy fantasy; occasional exploration of abuse, trauma, grief, and mental illness; LGBTQ; neurodivergency and disability; paranormal; identity exploration; coming of age; man vs self; man vs society; magic; cryptids; elaborate escapist fantasy for hard times; and more!

Q: Wow! Sounds cool! Do you have anything to show for this project yet?

A: I sure do! If you'd like to see art for this project, head over to @dandyghest where I post my art (DL-related and otherwise)! I also have five zines put together, but those are not currently publicly available. For now, feel free to follow this blog, and you'll be able to see any snippets that I share here :o]

Hope you enjoy your stay! Thanks for visiting!

There's a world where I can take flight, where I can freely move... -🎵

[Image Description: Digital drawing of Lastly the automaton sitting in a hanging circle hoop. The first image has an orange-blue gradient and a slightly static/paper texture overlay, while the second image has only a plain light tan background. Lastly sits sideways in the hoop, with one leg raised up into the air and the other dangling down out of the hoop. Their far arm is propped up on the raised knee and the arm closest to the viewer dangles down, past the hoop's bottom. They lean slightly against the side of the hoop. Lastly resembles a pierrot clown - they're wearing a baggy one-piece with three large pom-pom buttons, ruffled ankle hems, and dangling sleeves with bells at the end, along with shoes with bells on the curled ends, and a clown ruffled collar. They have a painted-on black dome cap, and a painted-on butterfly-bee decal on each cheek. They look towards the viewer with a neutral blank expression. End ID.]

The more you fight it, the more you end up panicking. Going with the flow of things, no matter how nonsensical they may seem, is advised.

Eric and Morgan’s love story is the kind that inspires songs and poetry. Their journey culminated in a beautiful wedding at the amazing Mulley Hill Lodge in the heart of the Black Hills of South Dakota. This breathtaking wedding was not just about the vows exchanged but also about the melodies that filled the air, thanks to the incredible DJ Marek from Rapid City South Dakota. Let’s take a closer look at this unforgettable day that blended love, nature, and music seamlessly.

A Scenic Haven in the Black Hills

The Love Story of Eric and Morgan

Their relationship was a harmony of personalities, with Eric’s calm and collected demeanor balancing Morgan’s vivacious spirit. They complemented each other in every way, and it was evident to everyone who knew them that they were destined to be together.

The Wedding Ceremony: Nature’s Aisle

The ceremony took place beneath a wooden arch adorned with white roses and wildflowers. The aisle was a path through nature, with a natural carpet of pine needles and wildflowers. As the couple exchanged vows, the wind rustled through the trees, and the birds provided their own melodious accompaniment to the heartfelt words shared between Eric and Morgan.

A Soundtrack of Love

One of the most remarkable aspects of Eric and Morgan’s wedding was the carefully curated soundtrack that DJ Marek put together. From the moment guests arrived, they were serenaded by an array of songs that celebrated love, nature, and the beauty of the Black Hills. Here are a few highlights:

Cocktail Hour: The cocktail hour featured acoustic renditions of classic love songs, including “Can’t Help Falling in Love” by Elvis Presley and “Thinking Out Loud” by Ed Sheeran. As guests sipped on their drinks and enjoyed delicious appetizers, the music created an atmosphere of romance and anticipation.

First Dance: Eric and Morgan’s first dance was a magical moment. They danced to “All Your’n” by Tyler Childers, a song that encapsulated their love story perfectly. DJ Marek’s choice of music truly made the moment unforgettable.

Dinner Music: During the dinner service, DJ Marek transitioned to a more mellow playlist, featuring songs like “Budapest” by George Ezra and “L-O-V-E” by Nat King Cole. The music enhanced the ambiance of the lodge and allowed guests to enjoy their meals while still feeling the love in the air.

Party Time: As the night progressed, DJ Marek ramped up the energy with an eclectic mix of music that had everyone on their feet. From classic rock hits to modern pop anthems, the dance floor was alive with laughter and movement. There was something for everyone, and guests of all ages danced the night away.

Old west 2. resz

3. nap

a masodik napi rengeteg latnivalo es elmeny utan, tudtuk hogy egy nyugodtabb nap var rank ami megint arrol fog szolni leginkabb hogy haladjunk.

a terv szerint az elso megallo deadwood lett volna, de mivel odaerve ugy nezett ki mint siofok vadnyugati verzioja, ki is fordultunk azzal a lendulettel, inkabb valami olyasmire tartogatva az idonket ami meg is eri.

igy elkanyarodtunk az orszag foldrajzi kozeppontjanak emlekmuve fele, ami igazabol nem is a kozeppontja, mert az vagy 30 merfoddel arrebb van, ugye minden egyes hozzaadott allammal valtozik hogy hova esik. zsuzso utanaolvasott hogy is megy ez errefele, nagyon tanulsagos erdemes elolvasni, kedvencem az a resz volt, ahol ugy allapitjak meg a kozpontot, hogy egy kartonbol kivagott orszagot egyensulyoznak egy tu hegyen.

wyoming es montana is olyan hely ahol nagyon szivesen toltenek sok idot, pusztan a termeszet miatt. persze lehet hogy csak nyaron ilyen szep telen valoszinuleg lefagyna a szempillam.

kulonosen elveztem ebben a ket allamban vezetni, hiaba a nagy tavolsagok, nem volt unalmas egy percig sem.

a kovetkezo allomas a devil's tower volt vagy ahogy az indianok hivtak bear's lodge.

tobb helyi torzs is szent helykent tisztelte a sziklat es kornyeket es eloszeretettel hasznaltak is szertartasokhoz. ugyan minden torzs ugyan ugy hivta, a legendak kulonboznek de abban egyetertettek hogy a hosszanti csikok a sziklan csakis egy orias medve keze nyoma lehet, innen is a nev.

a tudosok a mai napig nem biztosak benne hogyan keletkezett, van ra tobb teoria is, de az biztos, hogy maga a butte (ejtsd bjút) megkovesedett magma (visszakovesedett ko), a legegyszerubb teoria szerint kesobb a vulkan egyszeruen leerodalt a magrol.

amugy az ut soran eleg sok helyen lattunk hasonlo butte-okat (siksagbol maganyosan kiemelkedo meredek hegy, nem vagyok geologus, magyarul talan tanuhegynek hivjak ezeket) de ez a leghiresebb es talan a legszebb is.

egy kb egyoras tura utvonal visz fel a szikla melle/moge ahonnan allitolag nagyon szep kialatas nyilik a prerire, ezt mi kihagytuk, de ha valakinek kedve van szervezett sziklamaszo turak is vannak kulonbozo nehezsegi fokokkal.

az elozo nap a badlandsnel a ranger neni kerdezte, hogy hany nemzeti parkot akarunk megnezni, merthogy ha harmat vagy tobbet akkor jobban megeri eves berletet valtani. akkor nem akartunk ezen agyalni, de mondta hogy sebaj, ha meggondoljuk magunkat barmelyik nemzeti parkban tudjuk upgradelni a jegyet, amit is meg is tettunk, a 20-30 dollaros belepok helyett vettunk egy berletet 80 dollarert, ami amerika osszes nemzeti (csak nemzeti, allami sajnos nem) parkjaba ingyenes belepest biztosit. vicces volt, hogy nem emberre hanem autora szol a jegy, szoval mindegy hogy 1 vagy 5 ember utazik, az ar ugyan az.

itt lattunk eloszor bolenyeket es kiderult hogy az amerikaiak gyakran ossze is keverik oket a bivalyokkal (bison/buffalo). hallottunk mar buffalo billrol, meg rengeteg helyen lattunk buffalo burgert (a rengeteg egyeb buffalo nevu dologrol nem is beszelve) ami azert vicces mert a buffalo azaz a bivaly egyatalan nem el amerikaban, annal inkabb a boleny. konnyu oket megkulonboztetni a szarvukrol, a bivalye nagy csavaros, a bolenye kicsi. amugy nagyon kedves allatoknak tuntek, bar mindenhol ki volt irva hogy ne szeretgessuk mert veszelyes, ugyhogy mi tartottuk is a tavolsagot.

a nap hatralevo resze a yellowstonet korulolelo hegyek megkozelitesevel jart, az estet egy kedves kis airbnb-ben toltottuk red lodgban az absaroka hegyseg labanal.

4. nap

sajnos a lezarasok miatt nem tudtam reprodukalni az utat a google-el, ugyhogy berajzoltam :)

az egesz tura soran en legjobban ket dolgot vartam, a yellowstone-t es a beartooth highwayt, ami egy nagyon szep hegyi ut keresztben az absarokan, tobb mint 3000 meter magasan, red lodge-bol a yellowstone eszak-keleti bejarataig (ha valakinek sok ideje van, google streetview-val vegig lehet menni rajta). meg elozo reggel mikor az airbnb-t foglaltuk irta a tulaj, hogy ugye tudjuk hogy a beartooth le van zarva? nem tudtuk es 10 perc panik utan vegul ugy dontottuk hogy tartjuk magunkat az eredeti utvonalhoz, legfeljebb ha marad a lezaras majd kerulunk. reggel indulas elott raneztem a hivatalos oldalra, de meg mindig azt irtak, hogy tart a ket meteres (! junius 9. volt) ho eltakaritasa. aztan kesobb a nap folyaman kiderult, hogy reggel 9-kor megnyitottak, csak nem frissitettek az infokat :(

sebaj, ugy voltunk vele, hogy ha nem sikerult, majd visszajovunk maskor amugy kesobb lattunk hatalmas hegyeket mashol is es voltunk magasabban is.

itt szurom be, mekkora szerencsenk volt amugy a yellowstone-nal, eredetileg ugy terveztuk, hogy del fele indulunk es ezt csak az ut vegen latogatjuk meg. aztan ugy voltunk vele, hogy errefele hamarabb van mit nezni, igy csutortok-penteken majdnem mindent lattunk is a parkban. ugy tudom volt a hirekben otthon, hogy 3 nappal kesobb hetfon, valoszinuleg a hegyekben elolvadt honak koszonhetoen az egesz yellowstone eszaki reszet elontotte a viz. mikor lattuk masnap, nagyon orultunk, hogy voltunk olyan szerencsesek es meg tudtuk nezni mielott lezartak volna az egesz parkot.

szerencsetlen red lodge-ot is elmosta a viz, pedig mikor ott voltunk nagyon szep kis varoska volt, ettunk egy klassz reggelit a helyi peknel, aztan indultunk a yellowstone fele. mint emlitettem az eszak-keleti bejartatot a hagon keresztul nem tudtuk megkozeliteni, igy a del-keletit vettuk celba, igy is gyonyoru tajakon keresztul vezetett az utunk. mielott yellowstoneba ertunk volna, meg atmentunk a buffalo bill allami parkon is, ami szinten lelegzet elallito volt, foleg a taj a gatnal.

utana az ut atvitt minket az absaroka deli reszen, el a yellowstone to mellett, ahol vegre kozelrol is lathattunk bolenyt, egeszen a gejzirekig. rengeteg csodaszep hegyi kepet csinaltunk, foleg, hogy a magasban meg ho volt, jottunk el reszben befagyott tavak mellett, mikozben volt vagy 14 fok, tenyleg csodalatos volt vegig.

a gejzir reszen tartottunk egy hoszabb pihenot, mert mind kiderult csak egy orat kellett varni az old faithful kitoresere, ami kb a leghiresebb gejzir a parkban. mint egy szinhaz korbe van rakva padokkal es ki van irva egy tablara mikor lesz a kovetkezo kitores. ez viszont azt is jelentette, hogy nem lett volna idonk az egesz reszt bejarni, igy ugy dontottunk hogy Zsuzsoek visszafordulnak feluton es megnezik az old faithful kitorest, en meg vegigjartam az osvenyt, mert kivancsi voltam nagyon a morning glory poolra mert nagyon szep kepeket lattam rola.

mint kiderult en jartam jobban, a beszamolok szerint az old faithful valoban eleg oregesen lovellt, ellenben a morning glory tenyleg nagyon szep volt. ez a resze a yellowstonenak tele van gejzirekkel, van egy nagy fold alatti medence, amit magma melegit folyamatosan, igy mikor tulnyomas lesz kitornek. ezen a reszen rengeteg aktiv gejzir van, van ami naponta, van ami naponta tobbszor, de van ami nagyon ritkan tor csak ki. a morning glory eredetileg turkizkek volt, csak aztan a kedves turistak elkezdtek szemettel teledobalni, amitol eldugult a kurtoje, ugyan megprobaltak kitisztitani, de keves sikerrel, igy mara teljesen elszinezodott.

megalltunk meg a grand prismatic springnel ami a harmadik legnagyobb melegvizes forras a vilagon. azert hivjak prismaticnak mert mikrobak alkotta szonyeg boritja a szelet igy ha felulrol fenykepezik a szivarvany osszes szineben tundokol. mi sajnos csak szemvonalbol tudtuk lencsevegre kapni, de igy is szep volt.

dodinak sikerul egy szep kepet csinalnia, amin azert latszanak a szinek.

szerencsere az embereknek volt kiepitett jarda, de a bolenyeket nem nagyon erdekelte a mikroba-szonyeg, a jelek alapjan siman becaplatnak furdozni, gondolom csak miutan bezar a park.

ezen a ponton dontottuk el, hogy az eredeti tervvel szemben, nem jarjuk vegig aznap a parkot, egyreszt mert mar keso delutan volt es igy is rengeteget lattunk, masreszt ugy voltunk vele, ha netan barmi masrol lemaradnank mert meg egy napot itt toltunk, legyen ugy, megis csak a yellowstonenrol beszelunk.

eszaknak vettuk az iranyt es a parkbol kivezeto uton meg megneztuk a mammoth springet (meg csinaltunk rengeteg kepet a hegyekrol). a nev alapjan en valami nagy forrasra szamitottam, nem egy bekesen csorgedezo vizerre, de gondolom a nev inkabb a kalcium-karbonatban gazdag viz kepezte formaciokrol kapta a nevet.

ismet dodi volt aki egy kepben elkapta az egeszet.

vegig kifele egy nagyon szep patak menten jottunk, ismet csodalatos tajjal, ekkor meg nem tudtuk, hogy ez a folyo lesz az ami par nap mulva szinte teljesen elpusztitja az utat amin jottunk.

jo keson erkeztunk meg livingstone-ba, ahol az egesz ut legrosszabb ejszakajat toltottuk (es a legdragabbat is). amugy magaval a szallassal nem lett volna gond, ha csak az nem hogy szukos volt, de az agyak olyan puhak volt, hogy keptelenseg volt rajtuk aludni, en vegul a magunkkal hozott matracon, halozsakban kotottem ki.

"LABOR GROUP PLANS CONTINUED PROTEST TO CITY AND OTTAWA," Toronto Globe. August 4, 1933. Page 9. --- Labor Representative's Inclusion on Relief Commission Urged -- RAIL WORKERS BACKED --- At last night's meeting of the Toronto District Trades and Labor Council in the Labor Temple, the delegates decided unanimously "to continue to protest" alike to Mayor Stewart and the City Council "at the non-inclusion of a representative of organized labor on the Civic Commission inquiring into relief and welfare work in Toronto," and also to the Federal Minister of Railways and Labor in Ottawa "in regard to railway workers being asked to bear an undue proportion of the load arising out of the shrinking transportation revenues on Canadian railways." Described as "Deadwood." In the latter connecton, Delegate A. Evans, Ontario Lodge, 619, Brotherhood of Railway Carmen of America, drew attention to the fact that "during the depression years there have been over 23, railway workers put out of service, and the wages of those retained reduced by 1 per cent., many of whom are working part-time. A recent newspaper cartoon dealing with that situation intimated that the systems were getting rid of that much 'dead-wood." Apparently the welfare of those workers takes second place to that of the bond holders and the preferred shares. These economies may or may not have been effective, but certainly they have reduced the purchasing power of the people."

Vice-President Dan Noble supplemented that statement and declared: "The position of rail shopmen today is something like that of certain firms in Toronto, to whom Mayor Stewart referred recently, when he pointed cut that the wage-levels were deplorable that, if not raised, the Control Board might have to name them, in the light of the fact that the Welfare Department felt compelled to permit certain employees to continue to draw relief supplies, in addition to their wages. "If care is not taken," concluded delegate Noble, "the railway mechanics will be in a similar plight."

Musical Group to March. John Sutherland, of the Demon--- on the forthcoming annual Labor Day Parade, intimating that a fifty-piece band of the Musical Protective Association will march this year. In same connection, delegate Charles Bal stated: "It should be distinctly understood that this annual parade is conducted by the international trade unions of this city; that the marchers are headed by the Mayor and the civic authorities: and that we will tolerate no contact of any kind what-ever with Communist or near-Communist groups that are not native to nor will they thrive on Canadian soil."

Applause greeted this latter assertion.

Three delegates to the forthcoming Labor Congress of Canada (Windsor) are to represent the Trades Council.

The pre-delegate expenses must not exceed an aggregate of $100, and the representatives will be chosen next meeting from the following nominees: W. Genovese, J. W. Buckley,J. Noble, D. W. Kennedy, C. Locks,C. Ball. W. Dunn, J. Jenkinson, and E. E. Woollen.

Three of the world's most verifiable gambling clubs

Betting and wagering have existed insofar as man has had the option to convey. However lodging these exercises in an assigned structure is a genuinely new idea and has just occurred in the last not many hundred years. 

Fortunately, to draw in supporters the vast majority of these club have been engineering delights and are certainly worth a visit. Beneath, we present the three most established gambling clubs on the planet.

Baden Casino, Germany

With regards to gambling club contributions, in the cutting edge we are spoilt for decision. From spaces to poker and blackjack web based games, you can house an entire gambling club in the center of your hand. 

You just have to investigate significant suppliers like Betfair to see the scope of classifications accessible on their web-based stages.

From table games to bingo, you can play anything you desire, at whatever point you need. Nonetheless, it wasn't that simple all of the time.

The amount Do Slot Machines Cost to Play?

During the 1830s, there was an all out prohibition on betting in France. Thus, many individuals would venture out over the line to Germany to make a bet.  

The aftereffect of this was the Baden Casino, arranged in the town's Kurhaus, or social area. What's more, social it was, drawing in the greatest VIPs of the day.

Marlene Dietrich, socialite, entertainer, and vocalist was a customary supporter and when named it "The most lovely gambling club on the planet". 

The author Fyodor Dostoevsky likewise visited the foundation and composed his book "The Gambler" about playing roulette there.

Gambling club de Spa, Belgium

Opened in 1763, this building was appointed by the city hall leaders of the Belgian town of Spa. A focal point for explorers who needed to exploit the warm mineral springs, they hit upon a business thought of blending an inn, washing foundation, and club. 

Planned by the engineer Barthélémy Digneffe, it added palatial brilliance to an area that had been drawing in sightseers since the fourteenth 100 years.

Be that as it may, since its opening, the club has not made some simple memories. It would get attacked by fire in 1807. Napoleon then expressed that benefits for the following decade should be given to the people who lost their homes. 

During the early piece of the twentieth hundred years, it would experience more. It then, at that point, required 10 years for it to be reestablished and hold its previous greatness.

The Deadwood Casinos, South Dakota

These are more an assortment of club than one specific foundation, housed in the town of Deadwood, South Dakota. At its pinnacle, the spot was a genuine wild west town, buzzing with the commitment of the gold rush. 

This made it a shelter for betting and some other types of diversion the excavators and miners could get their hands on. Be that as it may, when the rush finished, the town blurred into haziness. That was until the renowned TV series reestablished interest nearby. 

Rebuilding efforts started, and it became one of the most amazing saved outskirts towns. It presently even has a put on the National Register of Historic Places. Obviously, with this has come a restoration of renowned inns and the club go with them. 

You can sit in their western quality and stroll in the shoes of history's well known illuminating presences, similar to Wyatt Earp while playing your number one club games. 

Maybe assuming you attempt one of these well known gambling clubs, you might try and add to their rich history yourself.

EXT. THE FOREST DAY

Sunlight  breaks  through  the  treetops,  speckles  of  gold  falling  on  them  in  splashes  of  light.  The  day  is  warm,  comforting,  safe.  Up  in  the  trees  birds  exchange  calls  in  an  explosion  of  music,  the  joyful  screeches  of  kids  somewhere  near,  a  man  calling  their  friends    to  ‘wait  up’.  They  are  close  enough  to  the  visitor’s  center  that  the  noise  of  civilization  infects  the  natural  symphony  of  the  forest.  The  scene  should  feel  comfortable,  heartwarming  even,  in  a  very  quotidianly  human  way,  yet  it  feels  misaligned.  Its  edges  poke  him  in  all  the  wrong  places,  all  he  can  hear  is  the  people.  He  drowns  in  the  ambience  of  mankind.  Someone  laughs  boisterously  and  it’s  like  needles  piercing  his  bones.

His  eyes  fall  back  on  @fatedcuriosity,  some  professor  or  intellectual,  she’s  speaking,  explaining  something.  He  attempts  to  smile  and  nod,  but  the  words  rush  at  him  in  a  torrent,  he  can’t  catch  them  fast  enough  or  understand  them.  In  the  backdrop,  he  can  hear  the  trees  creak  around  them,  the  forest  shifting,  unsettled.  No,  not  unsettled,  angry.  Moss  writhes  under  boots,  the  deadwood  seethes  at  the  clamor  of  cheers  and  gleeful  cries.  Vines  wrap  around  themselves,  roots  knot  like  clenched  fists.  Somewhere  deep  in  the  forest,  a  woman  trips  and  falls  on  the  ground,  her  legs  giving  up  from  under  her.  She  has  been  wandering  for  hours,  exhausted,  the  sharp-cold  fear  of  being  lost  slowly lodges  in  her  chest,  and with it her  own  frail  mortality  becomes  terrifyingly  clear.  She  looks  up  and,  there  it  is,  like  a  lighthouse  amidst  a  stormy  sea.  A  little  𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚜𝚎  at  the  end  of  a  path  flanked  by  silverbells,  tiny  white  flowers  blanket  the  ground  like  fresh  snow.  Smoke  rises  from  the  chimney,  the  faint  smell  of  something  sweet  in  the  air,  cinnamon  and  apples,  like  her  grandmother’s  home.  The  only  safe  harbor  of  her  childhood.

“  Who  knows  what  is  truth,  and  what  is  story?  ”  he  catches  the  final  string  of  words  before  they  slip  away,  then  stands  there  unsure  of  what  to  do  with  it.  Speak!  The cue is up, It's  your  turn to say your lines,  old  man.  

Silence  stretches  for  a  second  too  long  as  he  tries  to  remember  how  the  mechanism  of  his  mouth  is  meant  to  work,  the  scent  of  cinnamon  in the early spring air tickles  his  nose.  “  To  be  fair,  most  is  story,  ”  he  smiles  apologetically,  the  words  spoken  with  someone  else’s  voice.  A  foreign  feeling  settles  into  him,  carried  by  the  smell  of  mud  and  fresh  soil  under  his  feet. He looks down, a  little  silverbell  has  been  stamped  on  the  earth  by  his  own  boot.  Sadness—  an  abyssal,  lonesome  sadness,  left  to  fester with the ages.  Pain,  hatred.  A  wounded  animal  that  retreats  to  its  cave  to  lick  its  wounds,  a  caged  animal,  pacing  the  limits  of  its  enclosure.  Hating  everything  outside,  everything  that  dares  encroach  upon  the  dwindling  sanctuaries  it  clings  to.  He  resents  this  woman  snooping  around  his  forest.  He must. It is a command. “  There  is  no  great  mystery.  The  forest  is  big,  people  get  lost.  We  make  up  stories  to  cope,  and  to  caution  others  so  it  doesn’t  repeat.  ”  Again,  that  voice  which  is  not  his  voice.  Amused,  almost  dismissive.

if anyone ever asks me why theres specifically 39 fae courts in the DL worldbuild, i will not be able to answer them bc my answer sounds like the ravings of a madman

also theres only TECHNICALLY 39, but two are not usually counted in casual conversation (which brings us to 37), the other two are only counted in the most technical sense.

#i just like patterns in numbers and theres SO many layers of patterns to this .... #and the patterns overlap with 37 so thats why THAT number is there too #god i love being able to do whatever i want w worldbuilds HFDSJKL i can just crank my autism to the max and go hogwild #junos posting #deadwood lodge

i accidentally saved a picture of shadow the hedgehog to my deadwood lodge folder on my laptop a couple years ago and ... i decided he had to stay there as a load-bearing jpeg.

so every now and then i'll be looking thru the folder for an asset to use in something and by then i've forgotten about him again and it makes me laugh when he just randomly appears

#animal death #<- for the bones photos fdsjkl #all these photos are either mine or are free to use !! i make sure to check licensing before saving anything (besides shadow LOL) #i use them to make dividers or photo collages and edits #and the heart photos are just for Heart Cabin fsdjkl #i need to switch those word docs to libreoffice now that my college account has expired fdsjkl #pippen needs 2nd breakfast #deadwood lodge

How Many States

The how many states poll I answered and reblogged reminded me of my 2022 summer trip and other car ride stories.

My introduction to long car/van/passenger vehicle rides was the three-and-a-half to four hour trips we used to make from my home to my cousins' home in NY State. We'd go three to four times a year, sometimes for as short a stay as Friday through Sunday. In the summer we'd stay longer, but rarely a full week. In retrospect I see this was likely due to the adults limited tolerance for one another.

When I was 12 my family drove from MA to Orlando, FL. We stayed overnight in Atlantic City, NJ, after spending the day at the Bronx Zoo. The next day I think we spent the night somewhere in Georgia after crossing the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel (idk why my mom chose to do that, she hated every moment of that stretch of road, but it is very cool). In Orlando we went to Disney and Epcot and the now-closed River Country (which I until-today thought was named after the Fort Wilderness campground which apparently used to contain the water park before it closed). On the way home we stopped in DC to see the cherry blossoms - and not much else. We were all very tired of not having our normal routines by then and I think my parents rushed the trip home out of exasperation.

We never took a longer car trip as a family after that :P

This past summer my partner R___ and I took the Amtrak from MA to WA. We had a sleeper cabin which was an awesome way to travel. I wouldn't have wanted to travel that far by seat alone, but having the option to stretch out, and lay down was delightful. I enjoyed the older model, single-level train of the first leg (lakeshore limited) better than the more modern, two-level train we took from Chicago onward - the LL cabin had a row of windows for each sleeping bunk, and a toilet tucked right into the cabin for middle-of-the-night peeing. The Empire Builder (train line from Chicago to Seattle) was clearly a newer train but from the upper bunk your only view was the inside of the cabin.

Because there was a layover of a few hours between the arrival in Chicago of the LL and the departure of the EB, and since my oldest friend C______ lives in Chicago, we decided to stay overnight one night and resume the journey the next day, which was an excellent decision in so many ways. From the logistics perspective, it meant that we never spent more than two nights in a row on the train, which was a bonus. Additionally it meant we had time to enjoy the Field Museum, a lovely dinner at the Duck Inn, and C and I stayed up late, late into the night talking about life, growing up, being grown up, and playing crokinole (my first time).

The highlight of the train journey was the happy accident that R and I took dinner in the dining car for exactly the right seating, completely unbeknownst to us. As we were enjoying our complementary freshly prepared meal and complimentary cocktail, the train arrived at the station for Glacier National Park, then proceeded to climb into the Rocky Mountains as the sun began to set. We were treated to the golden glow of the last hour of daylight illuminating fresh dustings of snow on pine-clad ridges and valleys climbing up the slopes as we ascended into the mountains (my first time approaching the mountains by land)

On the way home, we were driving a Penske moving truck. Our goals were to 100% Rt. 90, visit Bear Lodge (colonizer name: Devil's Tower), visit Deadwood, and (suggested by a friend) visit Wall Drug store. We left on a Friday evening, planning to drive about 4 hours before stopping. We had until the following Friday to return the truck at our end destination - plenty of time, we thought. We had previously driven a rental car from the end of Rt 90 in Seattle towards Mt Tahoma (colonizer name: Rainier), which saved us some headache in the moving truck, avoiding downtown traffic and a detour since our initial departure point was on the Olympic Peninsula. We picked up Rt 90 just before the exit we'd previously used to visit the mountain, and we were making good time, but then we had to stop.

R's guts had decided to rebel (I think this is about when they coined the phrase "the bowelrog has awoken") and we spent the next three nights in the hospital in Nowhere Lake, WA. I may rant another time about the emotional journey which was being in this area, but for now I'll just say that we escaped that place with mostly pleasant memories on Independence day. We were now almost three days behind schedule, but determined to make up the time on the road.

We decided immediately that we had to skip Bear Lodge and Deadwood to meet our timeline. We also agreed that skipping those reinforced our dedication to earning the Rt. 90 100% complete badge. Unfortunately, this meant Wall Drug was still on the table - we stayed just long enough for me to eliminate a bowelrog of my own and for R to get low-key stressed out about the WAY TOO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE milling around before we jumped back on the road.

After leaving WA we stopped in Sheridan Wyoming. On Tuesday we only drove about 500 miles, stopping somewhat early in preparation for The Push. We had decided to push for 1000 miles on Wednesday, starting early and staying up late, but pushing on all the way to our home time zone, close enough to get the rest of the way home in one shorter drive on Thursday. We drove from Mitchell South Dakota to [incomprehensible] Ohio.

Did you know that in OH Routes 80 and 90 merge, as 90 dives south to get around the Great Lakes? Did you know that OH traffic signs on 80 have been allowed to deteriorate to such a degree that the characters on them don't really reflect light in a useful way? Did you know that since Rt. 80 is the 'primary' route at that point, that to stay on 90 you need to take an exit ramp?

I didn't know any of that until I was approximately 50 miles past the turn off. We spent another tenish miles deciding whether we should just follow GPS to the hotel we were aiming for, or whether we were going to turn around, drive 50 miles the wrong direction, and take 90 through Cleveland as we had originally planned. Ultimately, "I never want to come back to Ohio, and especially not just to complete a hundred miles of 90 I'll never have another reason to return to" won out. We turned around, head 50-60 miles back down 80, passed the exit for 90 and turned around again, then switched drivers and drove on through Cleveland and another stretch of highway until we reached Madison. (Incomprehensible earlier because I literally had no idea where we were by then. I had to look up my hotel reservation history to confirm that detail. I'm impressed that we made it that far - I had a memory that maybe we'd stopped slightly before we intended to because of the gods damned tireds.

From Madison to Buffalo to Syracuse to Albany and on to home we managed another 500 miles, which was still exhausting because we had not enough rest or sleep or relaxation this week, but we did it. Two amazing friends drove approximately 2 hours each way just to meet us at the storage unit where we unloaded the truck, which we managed to do that same night. Then we slept, and then we returned the truck on time and full of gas! (except for one minor hiccup where I had to go fill the tank after the guy had started my paperwork and technically got back after noon but he didn't ding us for it!)
