something to remember all . if your ever at a park and they have a Rhino there . If the Rhino should happen to start backing up to a wall. run for cover and don't be on the other side of the wall watching. IT can be a very VERY nasty scene. was at ****sassa Springs Wildlife State Park, ****sassa , Florida a couple years back and we seen this happen . its really not a pretty site to remember in your memory.

I know, and I still don't understand why they allowed us to get this close to a Rhino. If that thing decided to charge the truck, it could have turned it over on it's side. We passed with 5' of some Rhinos. The only thing I can think of is perhaps those Rhinos were old, and were content to just graze.

This one was only about 20' from us as we passed...

wow,, that's good to know, mike!

neat coaster ride, Ham, ~ though i would be too scared to go on it : )
and what a cool-looking bird, and all the animals seen on the safari ride, ~ fab!

~~~

I know what that bird is called Ham: It's the Red-necked SkyGazer-o-pteryx. Male if I'm not mistaken. I have learned from the best (you)!

lol, lol : )

well,, i cannot relocate in this thread the pic/s of the 2 lovely, huge peach trees i posted back in july, i think it was, ~ i wanted to show a comparison,,

anyway,, the october blizzard left one peach tree { background } with many broken branches. the other { stump in foreground }, broke right off from the gales and heavy wet snow on the branches; had it broken off just 8" lower, it would have crashed through one of my parents' livingroom windows, ~

On the Thread I posted about some work I did. I feel like the City of Austin owes me - and my mother, she did help - some money for a public works project we did for the last 2 days. Anyways, enough talk - some pics are needed for inclusion in this thread.

Before pics (in front of my mothers house, public street):

Wow Stratos, photo #1 to photo #5 is dramatic. Nice job, and your right, the city does owe you, but don't try to collect.

Some more shots from Mexico. Parrots shot is shaky as I had lots of other people taking photos around me and pushing for a decent position. I hate it when this happens, I try to be considerate to others but some people are so rude trying to elbow you out of place so they can take your spot.

Was out on sled for a couple of hours yesterday. Live in a valley so I just went up over the hill for a ride. Here is a pic looking down the valley at Marble Mnt. Ski Hill. Camera was my BB shoe phone.

Beautiful beach Bad_Guy, looks a little like Playa Del Sol.


Doorules, nice mountains! I miss the mountains here in Florida. Where do you live?
