I bought and installed an arbour a couple of years ago which is now covered in ivy, there is a little bench under it she can sit on if she wants some shade.Quote:

great pictures, everyone.
Nice work Kilt. Yes I think a cedar stain would look nicer.Quote:

On the Tram ride up to the top of Pikes Peak in Colorado. It was so beautiful. I love trees!
i thought it was funny how you got a Do Not Enter sign behind your deck, but yeah, what did you use to get the paint off, i've pwerwashed my deck a number of times to peel the dirt and stain off so my dad can stain it again, when he gets around to it, after he gets the bunkbed for my great-grand-children to sleep in, (meaning he won't do it, and most likely neither will i)Quote:

See!! This is what everyone should do!! HUG!!
Football games are silly places. They were fighting but then they started hugging. The fighting one was funnier, but it was too big!
Pictures from Tunisia.
The beach, the sun going down and some Carthagina pictures, amazing place.

Really wonderful pics everyone!
Steveh i remember when that happened. Cant believe that was 2005 though!
Monica thats a really nice picture of south dublin Bay.
Moira, your pictures are just gorgeous!! I particularly love this one, but they all make me want to visit. Actually, the fact that it looks like snow is seldom, if ever a danger, really makes me want to visit. :)Quote:

Virgil, I liked all your photos very much. I especially like the one of the palm tree - looking up - the patterns of it's frongs/leaves is really interesting making a nice graphic design. I like the sillouette ones with the sunset. The palm trees look spectacular and the sun really big and glowing - you captured that well. I love the one with the long pier in sillouette also. That is very impressive.Quote:

I could easily fix that for you in my Adobe Photo Deluxe program - it is an older program, but it works fine with Windows XP and I just paint out the area by cloning another similiar area and work it in at a time...usually works out fine and you can't tell. If you want any fixed, let me know so you can blow them up and print them. It only takes a few minutes each to fix.
Madhy, that temple is so neat. I like the other pictures also, and the discussion you and Pensive have been having about Henna and painting animals, etc. Very enlightening. In the film "A Passage to India" there is an elephant that is painted totally with henna. It is very pretty.
Kilted, I love that darling gray kitten. How old is she/he? It looks to be really young... and so sweet. Love kittens! You deck you built is so nice. I wish my son would build me a nice deck like that and plant those lovely bushes for privacy. I would sit there and read all day long. Good choice - the stain instead of the paint. Must have been a lot of work stripping it off. Wow, good for you - you are a fine builder. I hope you mother enjoys it and appreciates her thoughtful son.
Moira, love your photos also. Where in the world were they taken? I like the last one - with the interesting structures. What are they?
I have been missing much, not checking in on this thread. I need to go back and review all the great photos. Wow, so many have been posted. This is a fun thread!
Hey Virgil!! Glad to see you were in California! You took some great pictures. My dad was looking at them and said you were probably up in Santa Monica or Redondo beach. But if you are taking the PCH then it is quite easy to just drive on up and down the coast! I did that last summer. I can't wait to spend my time there this summer! Hope you enjoyed your stay...when were you out here?
Hi Janine,
The photos were taken in Tunisia and the structures belong to the Roman baths ruins in Chartage. :)
BunnySummers, it's a beautiful country to visit, loved it and have about 400 pictures.:lol:
