Back to work on Monday. Very busy Friday and Saturday happening/to come.


Today I took [livejournal.com profile] sassy_fae and [livejournal.com profile] nottheterritory on a whirlwind tour of Fabulous Haldimand County.


"It is cold today, Comrade Pyat."
"Da, Comrade Alexi. Cold. And hard."


I got new glasses. I like the old ones better, but they got stepped on.

The village/town of Port Rowan does not appear on either Mapquest or Google Maps!

It's not a big place, but I've been there. There's a bank! There's a marina! It has a webpage!

I must return, to document it's existence. Who's with me?

EDIT: I was able to find it by following the road I know it's on, anyway. But it's curious that it has no actual label on Google Maps. Much smaller communities are on there.

And then we met up with [livejournal.com profile] catsarah for eggs!

So, as seen in the previously posted video, today I made a brief exploration into the Underdark. I visited three different cave entrances. I did not get very far, partly because I was confused as to the actual access point to the Nexus Cave. The Nexus Cave is a 335-meter-long cave system, and there are two spots large enough for a person to enter. It contains sizable deposits of glittering pyrite, chambers large enough for 10 people to stand up, and waterfalls. I didn't see any of that, alas.


The first is the Nexus Cave Window. This was the spot where I did my video intros. I assumed it was just a little self-contained cave, with a "window" to the larger Nexus Cave. There was indeed a little passage leading off the chamber, which I poked my flashlight into.

Pyat goes spelunking, and talks about dungeons! Misleading editing! Fat man in tight places! Misquoted poetry!

The editing is misleading, because it's actually clips from two cave locations. I start at Nexus Window, which is where both the little talky bits are filmed. I did the intro twice from two different angles, and just pasted them together. The bit where I'm stuck, and the film of me crawling out, is from the Nexus Entrance, 300 metres away. The final bit, of me in the hole saying, "Now I have to get out!" is from the Nexus Window.
