I think it's very interesting that some pictures of Kentucky were posted, showing no more than some grassy hills and horses, and the post received numerous replies exclaiming extreme and stunning beauty. However, when pictures of the west were posted, showing spectacular images of some of our flagship national parks and physical features, it receives no replies. No admissions of beauty. Could it possibly be that the grand canyon is no more spectacular than horses and grass? Or is it possible that people must find any beauty they can in an entire half of the United States which is sorely lacking.
And, no offense, but those pictures of Pennsylvania are not particularly spectacular. They're nice, yes. But every state has rivers and trees and hills. Not every State has things like this:

I like the natural beauty, Ale-8-1, and my family.
None of those things are keeping me from leaving by the end of the year, though. So, I guess my favorite part of Kentucky will be (and already is, imaginatively speaking) seeing it in my rear-view mirror!

Please, do us a favor and move west. And preferably into the mountains where there is no internet connection so we dont have to hear such nonsense.
To each his own. I don't necessarily think "bigger = better." I prefer the gentle rolling green mountains of Pennsylvania to the high-spired craggy peaks of the West. If waterfalls are your thing, then you'll love my upcoming Ricketts Glen Photo Tour, in which I photograph a 94' high waterfall, the largest in a series of roughly one dozen.

Thanks and have a nice life.
That's rude. All I've done is express my opinion. If you disagree, I'm more than willing to hear your opinion. But I don't really understand the problem of arguing my point of view. Perhaps you could explain this to me, since you seem to have a problem with it.
