Thanks everyone for the wonderful photos!

Tiermann: Where did you take yours? The mountains are beautiful!

Gordon: I LOVE the photo of Miss Cis on the hilt of the large scale knight's sword - the contrast is remarkable.

Thanks Henry, those were taken at the top of Skinner's Butte in Eugene Oregon. It is about a half hour hike tot he top formthe parking lot in the park. I try to go there as often as possible, it's a fun hike and the view is great. it's the highest point at this end of the valley.

Here are a couple from Miss Cis' adventure here:

I think you may have started a new craze there - diving off the stone in front of the tower into the stream. :)

Hi all,
We just got back from a little 1400 mile jaunt to my home town in Nevada.  Went to see Mom.

There is a whole lot of sand and sagebrush between Mesa, Arizona and Yerington, Nevada.  I  got  a couple of pictures that might be interesting if not scenic.

The picture of the little traveler on the hood of my truck is at our house in Mesa, just before we left.

The next one is at Hoover Dam, the Nevada-Arizona border.

The one of the desert is my old "back yard"  I spent much of my youth roaming those hills and many more in the area.

The last one is along the river bank of the Walker River, just a few miles from our old Ranch.

We drove almost 700 miles the first day, but took the return trip in two days.

Enjoy!

Thanks, Jimbo ...

Unless you've been there, it's hard to believe that the land is so big !!!

The "Traveler" looks like he really belongs by the Walker River ... :)

Having spent the past 30 years in Texas, I know how important those two six-guns are ... ;)

Thanks again for sharing the "Traveler's" trip with us.

All the best,
Richard

 :) wonderful idea captain.
in the end of july i am going on vacation to the azores islands (in the middle of the north atlantic) and i will try to take one of my pirates with me.
i think i will try to photograph him in the formigas islets (a bunch of rocks in the middle of the sea, with only a small lighthouse, 10 hours sailing from the main islands, surrounded by blue sharks and manta rays).
i hope by then i will remember to buy a new usb cable.
again, a great idea.
  :)
