The Grotto della Sibilla in the Umbrian Mountains which was first mentioned in classical legend. Guerino the Wretch reaches a mountain pass near Norcia in Umbria where he meets with the Devil. The Devil, of course, wants Guerino's soul and tempts him by describing a subterranean kingdom where every delight will be his. Seemingly, in this kingdom, trees flower and fruit at the same time and there is no pain or age or sorrow.Lounging Traveller's Unhappy Fate
The traveller on the right, in the digital image I took only yesterday, having such a nice time in the sun at Baba Yaga's, is far more use now. A charming vase don't you think? With poppies of remembrance to remind everyone else that this is not Camp Lucky Dog. Well! The dogs that cleaned the bones were lucky I guess!

I'm glad I got away from Baba! Even though my skull would make a lovely vase...
what a great picture Heather
Thanks Carol. It's, shall we say, different. Lots of fun though.
Ooh, fun, but a little creepy ... the vase, you know.

The front gate to Baba's is creepy too. It is coming later today. Sniggerr, chuckle! Very Macbeth!
