Close encounter with a chicken

Nakalele Blowhole parking lot, Maui.

I was sitting on a picnic table enjoying the Spouting Horn blowhole in Kauai yesterday when I felt tapping on my back pocket. It was a chicken. I think he was trying to steal my car keys.

Sunset from Ka'anapali Beach Club

We were enjoying a pretty sunset tonight at the Ka'anapali Beach Club, and it reminded us of this awesome sunset we saw when we were here in 2009.

Mount Si, near North Bend, WA. The trail to the top of Mt. Si is one of the most popular hikes in the Puget Sound. It's about a 4000 ft ascent, and I can do it in about 4 hours (carrying the 30 lbs of excess weight that I can't seem to keep off). The other hikers in the family can do it in about 3 to 3-1/2 hours. So they loll around while they wait for me. Then there are the people who train by running to the top and back down. Twice.

This is a view from the top of Mt. Si, with the Cascade Mountains and Interstate Hwy 90 in the background.

Good Job Steve! And THANKS for reincarnating this wonderful- and lately little-used thread.

With sheltering in place in effect, perhaps this is a good time to reactivate this thread so that we can share our memories of trips taken and places visited. I'll try to restart things with this pic, from our first visit to Mexico, at Solmar Beach in Cabo San Lucas - a trip which happened only because of the TUG Direct Exchange feature:

It seems like many of the old pictures have disappeared. I'm guessing all of my old pics on this thread are gone as they were hosted by photobucket.
This one speaks for herself.

It’s more than one picture, but here are some pics from my trip to Zanzibar a few years ago:

Personally I think a new thread would have been better 123 pages to get through is too tall an order in my book.

We expect you to look at them all! There will be a quiz later :)

I also thought they removed the "Dial-up internet users enter at own risk!)" note from the title a while back?
