LOL, Andy.  Actually it was a labyrinth I photographed this weekend.  Here's the one of Jason's I was referring to.  He has others that are similar as well.

Hi Diana.  Hi Lyn.

Stephanie, what a bummer!  Computers are that mixed bag of great followed by awful.  They're like, as one gender says about the other - you can't live with 'em and you can't live without 'em.  lol.  Sometimes I wish it was like it was back in the 60's, when computers were the stuff of science fiction, at least to the everyday person.  You'll have it straightened out before you know it, I'm sure.

Jason and Andy. Sleeping in one of the stone circles is supposed to be uplifting, healing and something like a religious experience. Something about being in tune with mother earth. Put your hands on the stones, close your eye's and relax. You feel a sort of vibration. Cosmic energy?  Or maybe its a train passing not far away. Lol.

 I went into today's web sites that I go to reguarly and see the newest crop circle that looks like an Cross in Wiltshire, hope I spelled that correctly.....I should I guess be writing about the numerous things that cross my mind going through the pictures in the forum here. I'm kind of re-couperating from the recent heat wave that was more like living in the Sarah Desert, then Oregon, (USA) I made it through day two pretty good, but by day four I started swelling in the feet and could hardly walk, so been on water pills and water(dehydration), an few sips at a time. Still managed to get in my daily one mile walk last night though.The soft rain as I walked was making  "droplet" sounds on my umberella, and I had on my mind from the cool air some of the Boy Scout camp-outs in the rain, where we had an tarp over us around an campfire talking as it softly "dirp drip"rained also, laughing and joking. Then it took my memory back to the outting at Camp Meriweather, they just built an expensive lodge, and we have always stayed in the old section of cabins,..we like it there, it's on an bluff an over looks the ocean, Its private more so, you can see an occasional deer there if your quiet. they are built more like an front proch of an house with three sides and an railing in the front of them, that we often take clear plastic and cover over this area to block the winds off the ocean. One side has bunk beds, the other side has an wood stove and huge picnic table..an steel sink and counter. Heavily forested area also.. There is an small creek in an small ravine below us, that is crossed on an plank and the other side of the ravine had more cabins. But we are snuggled for the most part on the side of the this small ravine across from each other. One time our Senior Scouts decided to do an "cutie" for us "elders" for dinner. They told us, that only we cold come to the picnic table, and had other older scouts helping the younger ones cook down below us under the tarps..tied amoung the huge pine trees.. We all walked up there wondering what was coming, when the boys took off thier scout shirts, to their T-Shirts, put on vests, pulled out "chef "hats, and put an hand towel over their arm like Mater de"s of the finest restruant...smiels from ear to ear. We get an bottle of Apple cider "champange" uncorked and poured in fancy plastic glasses, and an course of Salad, baked potato, Garlci toast,and nice juicie steak...later we'd join the other kids with an warm peach cobbler and cream around the campfire. The guys were putting on their best through this dinner mind you, trying to make sure everything was just "perfect" and we chuckled a few times, they povided us with an "song" also. Which was funny. Provided us with candlight also. it was an entertainign night I'll never forget. In this moment of "peace" walking down the road, it's amazing what yor mind takes you back to...in the drip drip of the rain on an quiet road. 

 How many of you are Vegetarians here, I now have an babysitter that is one, and of course with my heart problem of the past, I still have to watch things. I have never been to much into some of this stuff like Tofu..but it looks like I'm going to learn now. You just don't starve the babysitter if you know what I mean...they require these days, "food" and "communication" of some kind..laughs* I remember when as an kid we all shared the telephone (telly) with all the nieghbors on an "party-line"...now they have text messinging. I think the old partyng line was an lot easier, you just picked up the reciever. "Hey Sue, just made some browines, want some?" We were an small town back then so the "party-line" covered an lot of territory in talking to others.

I have decided that I being an "sensitve" enjoy looking at this forum's pictures because I "sense" the peace of many the places at the time the picutres were taken..."feel" the sunshine of the morning and can "intuit" some of the life there. Since anything goes ..so I'll let some of you others get in here for now.
