This thread is like an old friend; it's lovely to catch up every once in a while! There are some very good photographers on TUG.

Can't believe our trip was almost two months ago and I'm just now getting pics on photobucket - time sure does fly. This is one of the residents of Smith's Luau on Kauai:

Mimi, I doubt if you can import these seeds. Where are the windmills from in your picture? Do you remember?

You photo image is beautiful in color and so sharp. Will you please give a link to your photo bucket album of other pictures of Kauai too if you feel like sharing them?

Mountain Top, over in the Poconos. It was a 4 hour drive. Pittsburgh is my home town, I grew up in Pleasant Hills.

This is our new soft coated Wheaten Terrier we adopted last Thursday. Here's a link to the story on Tug. http://tugbbs.com/forums/showthread.php?t=77755

How can a Wheaten Terrier look out of his eyes? I am sure he can now since you have him trimmed or is this the norm for this type of dog? I read your story and am happy for you and the dog that you got him. Sounds to me that Guinness found a good home!

I was on a tour by boat. I do not recall where I was in Holland when I snapped pictures of the windmills. If I am able to find out, I will edit this post.

Nice pictures Mimi of Kauai. We have been there a few times over the years but always enjoy seeing the pictures too.

With all the stories of pickpockets in Barcelona, I'd be afraid to put my backpack in the front of my bicycle like this young lady did. I would be too afraid that it would be an easy target for a passerby.

Oh how nice, thank you! I'm still learning photobucket but I think I just finished putting together a slideshow; let's see if this works.

And that peacock picture? That thing preened and strutted and posed for the longest time, I was just lucky to be there!

Mimi, your pictures are beautiful and make me realize just how much we didn't do on our trip!

It looks like you kayaked to the Fern Grotto, is that right? We went the other way, on the guided tour to the Secret Falls. We didn't bring cameras with us, foolishly, because we weren't sure if they'd be safe. Next time we'll know better. Your ATV tour is another thing we're planning for next time.

Your rainbow shots, though, I'm not sure I could get pics like those if we were to go back fifty more times - those are stunning!

What a beautiful picture!! What colors!!

Thanks, Sue. That's what strikes you about Kauai, the colors! The flowers, the birds, the sky, the ocean, the buildings, the animals, the grounds - everything there is so vibrant, even on a cloudy day. Picture-taking is so easy there.

Coopers Hawk

This bird flew into our patio room door and knocked itself out. After about 5 minutes, it stood up and just stayed there. I was about 4 feet away from the bird when I took this picture.

After a few more minutes, it got up on the railing.

and flew away.

One of my co-workers identified it as a Coopers Hawk. I Googled it, and the pictures online look the same.

Thank you so much. All very familiar but always nice to see other people's pictures too. I enjoy looking at the web shared photo albums of so many TUGgers here and also this thread.

My husband tries to make an igloo every winter with the kids. It's hard work and usually doesn't last long since it requires below freezing temperature or it very quickly melts. Picture taken from upstairs window through the screen. DD still working on it. Entrance and top not yet finished.
