Native American tied prayer cloths and tobacco offerings hanging from a tree at Devils Tower National Monument, Wyoming.

You may have seen that mountain in Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which was filmed here in 1977.

One of my all-time favorite movie’s, wim. In the theater, when the mother ship came overhead, I slid down in my seat looking up like it was hovering over me.


In the movie, “The Deep” (way years ago) there was a scene in an underwater cave where someone was running out of air. There was a pocket of air at the top of the cave that the person (people? I forget) were breathing. My family caught me with my face turned up sipping air. I remember feeling desperate for oxygen.

Thank you Steve. It was taken from the top of an open top bus positioned on a taxiway for the 'meeja'.

Managua skyline, lake, and hills.   High $ :)

Crowne Plaza Hotel beyond the trees.  

 

That looks familiar. I've actually stayed in that strange pyramid shaped hotel (Inter-Continental, I believe). I guess you know that Howard Hughes used to hang out in the penthouse seen in your picture. I talked a security into taking me up there in 1998. It was a total mess. The hotel has quite a history.

Yeah, it was spook and lazy journalists central under that name.   Name has changed.  I don't know anyone who's stayed there in recent years.    A military base and a couple  of gay bars are fairly close.

I actually didn't stay there in 1998. It was too expensive. However, I used to drop by for the very good all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet. I did stay at the hotel in 2010 as a guest of the Nica tourism folks. That was in my 'lazy journalist' days. As I recall, my room had great views of old Managua, but the AC was so icy cold that my camera fogged up, and I couldn't take any pics all day. 🧊

The Contra era was the lazy journalist days when people filed whatever the US embassy gave them and didn't go out and interview any range of people.
