Share the beauty of your area
« on: July 08, 2008, 10:01:47 PM »
Hey guys!  Yesterday on my day off I was at a park less than 10 minutes from my home.  When I was heading back to my car, I was thinking of how blessed I am to live near such beauty.  I live only minutes from scenic Puget Sound.  So I thought I would share the view with you all.  I know some of you other sly guys live in some really beautiful areas.  I also know that many of us would be surprised at some of the neat scenery in areas or towns where we wouldn't think  we would want to visit.  So come on and share some view with us.  Here's Puget Sound from West Seattle near the Vashon Island ferry dock.

I took these on the 4th of july, enjoy
Sorry I don't have any sunsets, I don't think we are going to have any fires this year, so I probably won't have any good sunset pics

no, Jewel Basin, while not officially a wilderness area, it is treated like one by the forest service
It is just east of Kalispell, where the mission and swan ranges meet

Tis better to have a bald head than no head at all.

Before I click on this topic I thought...what area are THEY talking about...I don't think I want to see any pictures of THAT!
Then it dawned on me that there was no way any self-respecting man would describe it as beautiful to another man. And then share pictures.  :D
I'll find some pics...

Here is a picture of a creek near a golf course I was at a month or so ago.


Here is a view of the Puget Sound north of Seattle, ferry is leaving.


and one of the Seattle skyline a couple moths ago.
