Hallson Gardens

So glad you can find ways to keep doing your trips.
Just love to read your post and see the pics- even Photobucket have stolen the moon one
Nice to see old friends here

Ohh you can see a lot. Just wish there were more small parking areas like in your last pic.
The vue with the backgammon is fantastic

Towers, hoodoos and chimneys - all are so far from my flat pancake like country. The only place we have rocks are on Bornholm, an island we stole from the Swedes back in time. Situated close to Sweden and occupied by the Russians in the last ww2 days- claiming they had Denmark. It took a year to sol...

Darn it is hard to compare scones with someone in Utah

A new road trip
Why haven't I been here for so long ?
Some lovely pictures

Happy New Year to you.

Hope you are not part of the flooding.

I really like the silver bracelet the design is very modern and could be Scandinavian
But I love the pendant Love it so much I lack words... not in English only
Love it as I can not remember if I have ever been so much in love with a piece of jewelry

Nice trip by the way

Lovely pics and thank's for the story

I see so many pics from US. 99.8 are from the big cities, then from diners and maybe once a year a pic from your countryside, so I love to follow your trips.

Godt Nytår / Happy New Year to all of you

Complaining about the weather is a must. You can not live in Northern Europe without complaining skills about the weather and you can always find someone who complain about it... it is to cold, wet, windy, hot, dry .... Just complain or they think you are weird

Americans are normally well accepted for jobs in Northern Europe :-) Can I be honest ? Most of the crying about the tourists are crab in North Europe. We are the ones going for vacations in sunny Spain, Italy ect. Here the hotels and vacation home companies cried for months... the Germans can not co...

The hostas will love the rain

I have very little idea of the jobsituation in Ireland. It was bad, really bad 10+ years ago and then they changed their taxpolicy and some other things and got a lot of specially US tech companies to settle in there...
Hope you will find a good job soon

Thanks Chris for keeping the forums :-) 8b/ 9a may be right but not in the normal US way since you are in a seaside area. Be prepared for changes... more or less all time, but specially in the spring. The last 2 years have been the first and only where I could not put out annuals in mid April. Last ...

Stunning
Coming from a more or less pancake flat country it is all I can say
New... rather new wild spiky mountains !
Stunning... never seen ones

Have a great trip

So if it takes 3 idiots to figure out there is not enough gas I am glad you were not only the 2 of you

Those thorny plants do have some lovely bright flowers

Lovely cacti flowers

A religion who combines all religions, ohh, I can see the sense in it... No more stupid wars a for how to please God Then it split up ... But then, not to offend anyone, but my first thoughts when I saw the building was a French Varité and Josefine Baker could easily be dancing with her banana shirt...

Yes we are blessed in so many ways we have even forgotten a lot of them. Just one hour ago I read that Syrian people are selling their kidney in Turkia ? trying to get enough money to go to Europe A few years ago Syria was a country where the citizens lived a good life with plenty of food, cars, int...

So do you think Picasso and Dali got the inspiration from the Leg Yes it is a bit weird that the Angor Wat and the European churches look so much alike. The European mason's were all inspired by the Italians and some looked at north Africa and the Near Orient ( think it is what you call it)... still...
