Camping photos. Picspam.

Ones again, we were at the back country, at Tom Bennet campground, it was great. And when we were back, it was 100 fuckin' degrees in the town, ye gods!:( I am not functional at such a weather, so I have nothing to do, as to go to the swimming pool, and to bore you with the photos, mwa-ha-ha... The heat makes me an eeeevil person...:)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Вот спустились с гор, где было не жарко и вообще оч хорошо. А в городе +40 долбаных градусов! :( Боги мои, боги, яду мне, яду!:( Вобщем вот, делать в такое пекло я ничего не в состоянии, кроме как плавать в бассейне и утомлять вас походными фото, буга-га... Я от жары такой мерз-ссс-ской становлюсь...:)








Don't know the english name of the flower. In russian it's called Ivan-Chai
~~~~~~~~~
Пока цветет иван-чай, пока цветет иван-чай,
Мне не нужно других книг, кроме тебя,
Мне не нужно, мне не нужно.**


...Пока цветет иван-чай, пока цветет иван-чаа-ааа-ай...:)





The woods in the mountains are full of the most wonderful mushrooms. Anton said, though, that even though they look okay, it'd be stupid to try to cook them, being hours of driving away from the civilization (and it's hospitals, heh), and I had to agree. So I was hunting shrooms with the camera...
~~~~~~~
Белых грибов в лесу в горах - немеряно! Непуганых, причём. Но Антон сказал, что хоть они и выглядят ок, но готовить их в лесу, во многих часах езды от цивилизации (и еёйных больниц), будет крайне неразумно, с чем, вобщем-то трудно было не согласиться. Так что по грибы я ходила с фотоаппаратом, и снимала все подряд:)











When a normal man at camping is discovering, that a can opener was accidentally left at home, he is going to borrow one from a neighbour by the campground, right? My woodsman is using an axe to open the can....
~~~~~~~~~~
Если забыта открывашка, то нормальный человек идёт одолжить таковую у соседей по кемпингу, так? А моё чудо лесное топором открывает банку...

...As accurate as can be:))
...аккуратненько ещё так!:))









Эй, ямщик, поворачивай к черту,
Новой дорогой поедем домой.
Эй, ямщик, поворачивай к черту,
Это не наш лес, а чей-то чужой.
Эх, и елок навалено! Ох, не продерись!
Камней навалено! Только держись! Поворачивай к черту!*

Poudre Springs. Remember this name, it's the place where I am going to retire...:)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Эй, ямщик, поворачивай к черту,
Видишь, мигают мне наши огни.
Эй, братан! Поворачивай к черту!
Шапку сними, да по жене всплакни.
Ведь здесь же елок повалено! Ох, не продерись!
Камней навалено! Только держись! Поворачивай к черту!*

Все, брат, прорвались, прямая дорожка!
Вольное место, да в небе луна.
Ты попридержи-ка лошадку немножко,
Видишь, совсем заморилась она.
Эх, дай папироску, ух, я затянусь!
Выложи форсу, богом клянусь, а прорвались все к черту!*

Lovely photos! Looks like another great camping trip!
:)

Thank you! Yes, it was nice up there... the great hidden idea is to go camping at the beginning of the week: there's not of much of the other campers around, and it's so tranquil...:)

Maybe I'm being too forward, but in that first photo your husband is HOT!!! His pose, the setting, his black tee and jeans...beautiful. And he can open a can with an ax! Now that's a man.

You look quite beautiful yourself, like a woodland spirit, magical and free.

I love the mushrooms, that one looks HUGE.

Poudre Springs is just perfect! It looks like my vision of heaven. :) Green, isolated and so quiet and beautiful.

A rainbow is the perfect way to end a post.

Hehe:) But in fact, you made a right observation about Anton: he's always look better in the woods that anywhere else. Guess, it comes naturally to a guy, who had spent every summer during his school years in the woods with his Sports Orienteering club, and then just started to travel alone, hitchhiking with his backpack and Jack Kerouac's "on the road" in his pocket...
As for the ax wielding - at some point he was very good at throwing axes at an aim... Say, ten years ago an accidental witness of our camping with friends could easily get a heart attack, looking at the guys' play:))

"a woodland spirit, magical and free"... Ah:) Thanks for the great compliment!:)

[jade-teacup.livejournal.com]

Wow, Anton's past history with the wilderness is something I envy. I used to dream of being out and about like Kerouac and writing poetry like Ginsberg....free wheeling and wild.

:D I would have loved to have seen the ax games. I am not good with an ax but I can use a long whip with surprising accuracy.

[broom--rider.livejournal.com]

A long whip! 8)) I doubt if I had ever held one... oh wait, I remember *blush*... but the situation surely wasn't call for an accuracy...;))

[jade-teacup.livejournal.com]

:) Tee hee. Hmmmm that sounds like a great story.

[broom--rider.livejournal.com]

Hehe, duh, nothing overly interesting, in fact:)
I still think, that most of us should try as many as possible of the types of "something different", you know, just to see how it'd work for you. Otherwise there's a risk to stuck with someone else's judgement in your head instead of your own, and for me this is absolutely inconceivable:P

I never got the chance to try out all my possibilities! It's hard to find willing partners.

Больше всего понравились фотки с лесом (где впереди коряги на поляне, дальше лес, а потом синей полоской вдали - горы... :)) и там, где ты у горного ручья/речки на камнях - очень-очень живописно! :)

[broom--rider.livejournal.com]

Это вид на Mummy Pass через горы. Коряги мешают разглядеть, что гора похожа на лежащую на спине фигуру тупа саркофага:)

Oh, this reminds me so much of places we used to camp here in Durango! It's so neat to see photos like this, that bring back memories. You look great!
