Here is our library. We raised funds over a two year period to move the building to it's present location.

7th - picture perfect applies! What a doll of a library. You are so fortunate to live with such beauty and "cute" buildings. How nice for your community to pull together to make that a reality. How proud you all must be.

Here's French Gulch, California. It has a population of about, 256. It is about 5 minutes North of the Wiskeytown Lake, at the border of the Shasta/Trinity National Park. I have lived here for 10 years from South Central Los Angeles.
I am going to move to Oregon pretty soon. I really like the Brookings, Oregon pictures. The weather here is very similar to Roseburg, Oregon.
I want to live on the Oregon Coast. There are old lighthouses all along that coast.
And I love their Sea Storms.French Gulch Hotel French Gulch California

Here is some more of Portage, Wisconsin

I have a question for you folks, If I didn't tell you where these pictures were taken what state or region of the country would you have thought by looking at the topography?

My Mountain Biking roads.

If it was said to be from southeastern Oklahoma I would probably kinda believe it, though would want more info to totally believe it.

A view from my hiking area




A view of the nearby Wisconsin River


A little place up north that allows for me to get some relaxation in.


An area I hike


A country view


The oh so Majestic Wisconsin River at St. Lawrence Bluff just south of town.


Sunset over my favorite fishing spot.


by no means am I a professional photographer. I just enjoy using my simple Kodak digital camera and I look for interesting subjects and get some very cool pictures.
