You know, when I have lots of days off, like now, I really enjoy searching the net for high resolution photos. It's so much fun.
A while back when I did that my laptop crashed a couple of days later.
Guess what happened yesterday morning??
"It's so much fun"... tsss

I still have the same desktop image I've had for several years now -- myself sitting and gazing out over the Norwegian mountainside during a hike up our highest mountain in September-2008. It has extra meaning to me now, as that trip was the last thing I ever did before the health issues began. So it's at the same time nostalgic for me (a better time in my life), but also a reminder that I hope to get back to that shape some day:

It's a little "drawn out" as it comes across there (I'm not THAT fat), but yeah, it was a lucky shot that my friend managed to take there.
Notice the painted, red "T" on the stone to the right? That's the guide for the hikers.I am extremely serious. -

Interestingly the mountains look very similar to the ones in Scotland, huge glaciated valleys with the tops of the mountains 'shorn' off, like Scotland I expect the mountains would have been far higher hundreds of thousands of years ago, maybe even of Andes or Himalayan proportions?On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I think that they were - and were also all connected to the Appalachians!!
