A peaceful stream to cleanse the mind. I could sit here for hours...

Throw a pebble in the water for me!

*sigh* I love green.

Only 6 more months till it starts to green up here again.

I'd prefer to toss a small caddis fly on a 3 weight fly rod... ;)!

This looks to be somewhere on the O.P., but could be anywhere in western WA really. Notice all the moss from the CONSTANT rain...??

Well you did the wonderful nature scene, here is a human made one. This is the cathedral Notre Dame de Reims. Arguably more important than the more famous Notre Dame de Paris as all French Kings were crowned here. The pictures cannot even begin to do it justice.

To give you an idea of scale.....

This is myself in front of one of the two front entry ways. The scale is incredible and all the statuary is hand crafted and of intricate detail.

Sweet shots...... I'll have to dig into my archive for one next week.

man, you are REALLY small -

dhomoney · 10-30-2008, 06:25 PM

ROFL. Sometimes I wish. I'm 6'3" 225, so not small by anyone's measure. Doors were huge, yet easy to open. Well worth the trip.

I love castles! But I've never been to one - maybe someday.. Great pics!

**schoeney** · 10-30-2008, 09:46 PM

Man, great pics all! I wonder if I should dig out my family pics from about 20 years ago..with me in my pink polka dot shorts and black tank top? Oh no, did I just say that out loud?
