Re: One Thousand Words

OK look, I was in Yosemite and posted a bunch of photos Feb. 20-22.

I went browsing in the Sierra today, not far from Reno, and found a little crossroads. A few chicks in the snow hen house. Cackle Cackle Cackle. What is up with women have to talk a long time about nothing.

Plug it into Google Maps to see where this occurred.



This picture is worth one thousand words. At least.

Now you tell....The Rest of the Story...

Here's me, btw, same place but up on the snowy part. I used my snow shoes for the first time today, cherry....busted

Learning to walk with your feet far apart?

VInce:>What is up with women have to talk a long time about nothing.<

THAT is exactly why I went on a 40 mile bike ride ALONE. I can actually hear the birds, water, and my own thoughts. Yeah, i have plenty to say when talking about an upcoming trip, or post trip.... but DURING the trip? A little silence is more than golden -- its MANDATORY!!!

Could not bring myself to repost the photo, but my entry for the winning caption follows:
'You keep your muddy paws off of my Vincent!'

I think Frank has the best entry so far.

Vince, did they know that you were taking their picture? (they were probably talking about diets -- thats all women talk about!)

B

LOLOLOL you guys are killing me! i'm dyin' laughing over here!

i was thinking that the gal on the far left was thinkin' " i don't know either one of these chicks, but this is gonna be one interesting fight".

No, the gals you see all live in the area off Dog Valley Road (no relation to the gal with all the dogs) between Truckee and Loyalton. Actually a quaint little valley between Boca and Stampede reservoirs.

They were all friendly and just there to pick up the mail (note the community mail box at the left of the photo).

The woman in the blue jacket had what I can best describe as a Minnesooota/Palin accent. And when she was talking, she felt the need to point at you. She pointed at me, and then said, "Oh, well you're not from around here, aren'tcha" and pointed at my Nevada plates. Then she went on talking about other stuff while everyone else listened and got pointed at.

No one really got a word in edgewise (which I was wondering if anyone had another 999), and if anyone knows this gal and sees my comments, well, do you know anyone who acts like this?

I like this photo, "Barn in a Barn"

Anyone ever get into photos of old barns? There is one in a meadow not far from Hetch Hetchy but I can't find it in my archives, anyone have it?

Oh, found it in about 7 layers of folders. This barn is somewhere along Hetch Hetchy road. Looks like it's being used still.

Ok, know where this barn is?

Dang you eeek I said I wasn't going to post anymore!!!

Those barns are in Big Meadow.
