HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!
Rock window (perhaps hopefully onto a brighter future for us all?).
The way I took (not a path at all really) went under this rock. Very common to have a giant boulder wedged over a gully in granite country!
Granite forms on Pena del Tejo, a little to one side of La Sierra de La Cabrera proper but terrific scrambling territory in its own right. Indeed I spent a whole day here, intending to move on to the main ridge but finding a day's worth of interest at this place, including the mountain stream close-ups I sometimes post. photo taken 2012 and first posted on ipernity in 2017.

Andy Rodker club has replied to Sarah O' club
Sorry, Sarah. My poor attempt at humour. No I didn't have a nosebleed - I was fishing desperately for a word beginning with N. I hadn't ever seen HUHAN before. Now I know what it is. Thank you!

Andy Rodker club has replied to Sarah O' club
Thank you, Sarah!
A NICE and relaxing weekend, mainly catching up on ipernity, some housework, shopping, that sort of thing. Will walk round to my girlfriend's place soon and we'll go for a walk this evening. The weather has been fabulous these past few weeks - between 25 and 30C (I guess that must be somewhere between 75 and 85F) and with pleasantly mild nights! In fact October records have been broken everywhere in Spain!).
I hope your weekend is a good one!

Just amazing. The whole thing. You must have been way up there (Iooks to me like an aerial photo). Beautiful work.

Andy Rodker club has replied to micritter
Spent the whole day cavorting and gambolling amongst the granite, micritter!
(Gambolling and amongst are two words not liked by the American English spell-checker at ipernity, it seems!)
(I suppose they want gamboling and among).
Yup they do!

slgwv club has replied to Andy Rodker club
Well, I've been known to use "amongst"... ;)

In American spelling you treat final "l" like final "r"--it's doubled only if the last syllable is stressed. Hence "controlled" but "traveling." Just like (say) "delivered" vs. "occurred."

So, there actually _is_ a rationalization-- ;)

Andy Rodker club has replied to slgwv club
Yes, I have studied all of this and I find it interesting and all the points you raise are very reasonable! I am interested in the fluidity of language and the differences found in regional dialects and so on.
I write marvellous, you write marvelous. It's OK.
Noah Webster was a bit of an arrogant so-an-so but some of his ideas made perfect sense.

This is a gorgeously framed picture, Andy. I love the way the stones are in perfect positions to enable them to be used for photography.
