This thread has few requirements......

The pic should be one that you actually snapped...or a friend snapped for you.

No photography skills required.
No high dollar camera required.

Just something from around your area that you think of as cool.

I will kick this puppy off with a couple examples....

My ugly niece hanging out with the neighbors longhorns...she loves em and they are like puppies....

That second one is HYSTERICAL!!!

The "Young Horns" image is absolutely fantastic. The young one is smiling just perfectly for this image.

May the wings of the Guardian whisper their blessings on this young Angel.

Many Blessings,
SpiritWolf

Thank you SpiritWolf....very cool of you brother.

Don't let the lil waschitchu (I'm sure I misspelled that) fool ya. Lil Grizzly is an absolute hellion....I love that ugly kid anyway.

This is just one that my friend took driving down I-20 last week on her camera phone....

Go figure....only in Texas....

" Redneck Surfing "
Was going to the store, it was raining,
saw this... could not believe it.
Yep, my hometown, we're SO proud of our young folks!!
Notice the mandatory red nose pit.

Trying not to think of the inevitable road rash that surely followed that bit of stupidity! hahahahahaha I love that pic!

CRACK ME UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm in Texas, but never saw anything quite like that!! How the heck?????????

Its a minature horse, not much bigger than a big dog. Thats how.

Thanks Krup- Peeps a little slim on the compliments for the newbies ehhh?

I bet the Texas tourism board would love that picture of the neice with the longhorn behind her. Has great market value.

You may be on to something there.....been trying to sell that kid on E-bay.....but no bids.


Don't sweat it Sevron....no one spoke a danged word to me my first few months here.

Bibi Clement, potter, was setting the cones before her Japanese kiln was sealed and fired. In 2004 it was the largest kiln of its kind in Canada (maybe it still is).


The kiln is the size of a school bus with arches, chimneys, airholes and doors. The 360 cubic foot chamber is capable of holding 1,000 pots.

It takes 12 cords of wood cut into kindling for a short 6-day firing. There are also 10+ day firings. The kiln has to be stoked through several holes around the clock by volunteers.

It was a way cool experience.

Thats one huge Kiln!!
And thanks Krupa
