Picture of the Day - Everywhere Else

[surfer941]

Went to Mingo Falls today. I'm kinda sad that my vacation comes to end in a few days.

Okay, I'm depressed now. I've never seen a mountain except for in Venezuela, but I don't remember them. I just... One of my dreams is to see a mountain. Not some Disney crap, I want the real thing, the thing that took gazillions of years to make, not 6.

I live by a mountain :]

Grr. Florida is too flat. It's like a giant sandbar.

I live in the hills, but snowboreded in the Rockys. Those mountains are nice!!! :rep:

 

[violarum]

My jealousy. It is being very high on the meter. :/

That's a pretty bad donkey picture right there, too! I can imagine the views...

Agreed.

Well, you do have theme parks and a beach (although I hear one side is less preferable now...)

One can only take so much heat and crowds, and rip-tides trying to kill you. I love the crisp cool air of the hills.

Unless its blowing in a snowstorm. :/

 

[violarum]

Oh God, something else I've yet to experience in my life: SNOW.

Bury me.

That's why I go to Mass. in the summer!

Wow, I find it slightly ironic how my home is surrounded by mountains-- but I'd love to be in Orlando right now-- while the majority of you live in/near Orlando, yet would love to visit some place similar to where I live. I guess I never thought about that before lol.

Here's the other side of the mountain, displaying the no-longer-ugly Chattanooga, TN!

I say "no-longer-ugly" because I mean it. I'm soooo glad I wasn't living here in the 60s (well... I wasn't alive at all in the 60s). Nothing but factories and really thick smog :x

Oh, dude. . . . I'm still young enough to feel sorry for you
I'm in a unique position. Tennessee usually gets like one or two "good" (2 to 4 inches) snows a year and that's it-- so it's never something we dread, unlike the northerners.

one final picture of Lookout Mountain... ACTION SHOT! lol

Or us in Oklahoma...When it snows, somehow it turns into a storm...every...single...time.... :faint:

I can't wait to go to Mass. in the winter this year! :happy:

Where I live there are hills...

 

[mantaguy]

Yeah, 50 foot tall ones! That's nothing. The highest elevation in florida is 300 feet above sea level. That's ON the border of FL and AL. I live 9 feet above sea level.
