This can be a scene from nature, a beautiful piece of music, a work of art, a person, use your imagination.


I love the moutains I could look at them 24/7 and not get tired of them. The most beautiful place I have been is the Tetons I just love that place the beauty there is uncompared. The picture I posted is my favorite scene of the Teton Mts.

I also think the song Simple Love by Alison Krauss is beautiful not only because Alison sings it so well but because it speaks about a love that most people want (including me) from someone. Which is a love that is always giving and never asking back.

I saw a TV show yesterday that talked about those bridges in Canada that raise and lower for boats and ships!

The greatest masterpiece of my favorite artist MICHELANGELO'S PIETA
(Frankly, i think the "David" is overated.....Michelangelo also considered this his masterpiece) You may notice some cracks in the statue, thats because it had to be rebuilt with a kind of marble paste after being attacked in 1972 by a man with a hammer, who broke the statue into many pieces. :eek:

So THAT'S why I saw your pic up in the Post Office this week! l) j/k!!!!


(isn't it horrible that in this day and age, people do tend to think of the perv angle and really there's nothing to that - she's an adorable little girl and it's a lovely shot really).

It sure is, but if it's supposed to be Niagara from the Cdn. side, they've tweaked the colors (and even the sky likely). I haven't seen the water look even close to that in 35 years. Still the Falls are quite a sight and sound. Amazing how much they've receded in just the lifetime I've visited there (and since it's only about 75 miles away from me, I've seen it often).

No doubt, Ive seen the falls easily 1200-1500 times and they have never looked like that! (They look like this)VVVVVVV pic by Mikado
