... her cheek against the chestnut boy's cap, closing her tired eyes to wait for a gap in the yelling. This part of her dream had never changed. *** Gwen was huddling in the guardhouse by the drawbridge, trying to tie a handkerchief over her hair to keep her head dry, when she heard Prince Arthur say very clearly in an oddly high-pitched voice, "My father will be happy to replace the damn things,...
We took the train from Ft. Lauderdale to DeLand yesterday. This should have taken 5 hours. Instead, it took 14. The drawbridge right outside DeLand got stuck in the up position. This apparently required techs from several hours away. And eight hours. Sitting. And waiting. It did not take long for the train to run out of booze. Yes. We were on the drunken redneck train. For eight hours. HILARITY...
...a catwalk that they extend from one window to the other in order to get in and out of the building unseen. So the PCs head up to the roof of the second building then ambush this drawbridge/window entrance. Venting their spleen on the roguesthey cameacross and worked their way down the building. Finding passage to the city sewers below the main floor (yeah, that old chestnut) they start tricking ...
... women are already inside – wherever inside is – and Walhurst with Janel Tak brings up the rear. There’s a thin, whining noise, and the floor in front of them starts to rise like a drawbridge, closing them in. Kite catches a glimpse of Sheppard’s last man vanishinginto thin air before the door seals shut. He’s not happy to realize that he’s started hallucinating. Something’s dragging at his ...
.... Somewhere in the castle, Oliver Wood was being held prisoner by the evil Maledicta, who planned to force him to marry her, no matter how devoted he was to Romilda. She had her ways. They reached the drawbridge, and a stream of vile ogres poured out of the castle. "Hermione!" Romilda yelled. "We have to fight them. Can you manage?" "As long as you have my back!" "Good!" Together, they cut ...
... it was a really fun evening (and the second-to-most recent time I've even seen Ian), so I think it was a success overall. I really like this photo of downtown from the Flats - the railroad/drawbridge on the left is lit up a really cool purple/pink color, which probably looks better at larger zoom: This is sort of a nighttime companion to a photo I took in the daytime in 2008: The ...

The wrecked boat to the right is named "Against All Odds".
Birds of a feather...

Dr. Evil's Secret Lair
This must be someone's secret lair. Drawbridge (well, swing-bridge), gates, towering walls, tidal access for secret yachts - it's got all the marks of an evil genius' base.

... separate what should be togethernaturally. BlakRoc does not smash those boundaries or break down those walls, it proceeds as if those boundaries never existed and acts accordingly. BlakRoc sets the drawbridge between forms of expression, Hip Hop and Rock by doing something as simple as putting the artists of different genres of music in one room and documenting as harmonious collaboration takes ...
... start. Ride hard and meet back home." He kicked his horse into a run toward the forest with the others following close behind. Bollen shouted at his men, and as soon as they had ridden over the drawbridge, they turned together and veered off the road to chase the outlaws. Guy reached the forest first, and because it was dark, he had to slow. It would not do to have his horse twist an ankle ...
...with a Santa Claus beard dressed in khaki shorts and Hawaiian shirts...I think bringing home coffee or something. I run into him when I'm trying to get in a good Sadie walk and trying to beat the drawbridge to the mainland. He's heading down to the rich portion of the key. Crushes are of course, best savored and not acted on. Dream the dream. I got some work done, thinking about other tactics ...
