Good Sunday, WIPSnippers. This, from the novel of the lost boy, back to being called Gabriel. (Recently, An Inconvenient Wind. Sigh. Still in title quest.)

#novel #parrot #piano #lyrics #arcticexploration
She called the parrot John Martinue, and daydreamed at the window while the bird sat on the sill, watching with her. Here, there were no photographs of her husband Tom, who’d built the place, theirs once, but pictures of Martinue, who’d rented it from them and died. A compact man in lederhosen with a waxed mustache, leaning on an ice pick. Here he was with the hood of his parka drawn back and a glacier behind him. Here, on the hall wall, he sat in formal attire, his black eyes following Liberty when she passed. Because she lived among his accumulations during the day, the explorer came into her dreams and made love at night. She woke in ecstasy, and the stirrings lasted into the morning, if the reason for them didn’t. In some peculiar ways, she was happier than she’d ever been in her ordinary years. When his parrot, the spirit of the place, said “Be utiful,” she replied, yes, she would be…utiful. It meant to stay within grasp, to sit at her baby grand piano, an extravagant wedding gift from Tom that had stayed with the place, painfully out of tune. What she didn’t forget were her songs. Her memories were held in the ritual of her muscles, her vocal cords were lined with lyrics, the tendons of her fingers knowing which note came next on the keyboard. She steadied her hands, her voice, whispery. Don’t change a hair for me. Not if you care for me, she sang. Utiful.

Stromness, Orkney Islands. A final watering stop for many a ship headed to points west including the North American Arctic. This is a plaque over the old well; I would not have minded a sip. #Arctic #ArcticExploration #FranklinExpedition #HudsonBayCompany
A stone in a walled corner aside a street in Stromness. It reads "There Watered Here the Hudson Bay Coy's Ships 1670-1891 ... Capt. Cook's Vessels Resolution and Discovery 1780 ... Sir John Franklin's Ships Erebus and Terror on Arctic Exploration 1845 ... Also the Merchant Vessels of Former Days ... Well Sealed Up 1931.

Boats for a model ship: Amundesen's "Gjøa". Historic photos show an Oselver Boat (Gray), a flat-bottomed skiff, and a Norwegian Pram. Amundsen also collected two sealskin kayaks from Nattilingmiut at Gjøa Haven, ca. 1904. Modeled at 3/8"=1' #ShipModel #Amundsen #InuitKayaks #ArcticExploration
