Local Pictures

Would any of you care to post pictures of your local hometowns or of the scenic beauty in your region of the world? It'd be fun to be an armchair traveler until I go back to school.
I will try to get some pics online later.

My house is.. well.. there somewhere.

Of course, that's only during University holidays.

This picture was taken northwest of the Tri-Cities in WA state, a few miles from the Hanford nuclear site.



123c, nice pic. My parents' house would be visible at a much MUCH higher resolution. When was that pic taken? (I'm guessing a couple months ago).

Hey Dr Brandini,

I've spent some time in Carolina Beach just down the coast from you while working on a radar for the FAA. That is a mighty nice stretch of beach. It's not as crowded as Myrtle Beach and is just as nice as far as sand/water goes. As you get further down on the peninsula, you really have the beach all by yourself too.

Hope to get back there someday.

Sholin,

Carolina Beach is just down the street well almost... If you like carolina you will love Wrightsville. Its a little smaller but a lot better hometown feel which makes real estate almost rediculous. However, Carolina is very affordable but you have to put up with some rebels if you know what I mean..... Let me know if you come back one day...I'll show ya around.
