Loki Loc: Georgia
 
Found a picture in images. It was taken from an overlook near where I grew up. Thought I'd mix a little beauty in with the ugly. The tallest mountain in the back middle is Wheeler Peak, highest in NM.

13,159 feet. I didn't exactly get up to it; I did, however, drive past it on the way to work three days a week for several months.

I do not remember; however, you will be in great trouble. :hunf: :mrgreen: :-o

I just checked. Yes, he was a male. Just check the deer's name tag. If it says Bambi, you must let him go. :hunf: :hunf:

Inquiring minds want to know, does your son favor you in looks?

Clarification: I drove past the overlook where the picture was taken. I could see the mountain every day.

Trust me, it was nicer in the sixties and seventies, when there weren't so damn many people there. Town I lived in has gone from around 700 people to about 3000.

Hey, I'd settle for being able 3 times a week to drive by such a magnificent panorama on the way to work, even if it was for several months. Heck, I'd settle for just a week or two. However, I don't think I would be inspired to attempt to climb it!!
