Amid The Pyramids

Napoleon and the Great Pyramid: Myth and Reality
One of the best WIBT (wish I’d been there) moments in history must have been that wonderful occasion when Napoleon ascended to the royal chamber in the Great Pyramid and asked to spend a minute alone with the pharoahs: perhaps it is so fantastically attractive as history because no one was there and so there is the mystery of just what happened. Here is a typical modern account, and there are several web pages that go into details of Napoleon’s likely vision within.

.... Cawston Ostrich Farm, located in South Pasadena, California, United States, was opened in 1886 by Edwin Cawston. It was America's first ostrich farm and was located in the Arroyo Seco Valley just three miles (5 km) north of downtown Los Angeles and occupied nine acres.
 
I know this is the humor section but I found this video fascinating. Never realized the pyramids were so rugged and coarse, or that there was so much rubble around the base.

I prefer this somewhat messy view.


Wonder if I could get one of those drone things to check the fence on my property? :D
 
One would think that after all these years they would have cleaned up all that rubble

surrounding those great structures. Now days they're going to extremes. Screw the rubble.

Now they're making more rubble in someone else's backyard.

Falcon, maybe it just keeps falling, do you suppose? I think they try to keep people from climbing on the pyramids, but many still do.
