New England is good, but I've always been drawn to the mountains.  The kind you get in the Rockies/midwest.  Not these old slouching kind of mountains we have here in the east.

It's fun seeng all you in your element.....  Outside the Watch forums I mean.




Steve, great stuff I love labs LOL about the clumsy and mouthy, to funny, I have two Labs one is 140lb Big dog just had a blown out knee op, same thing last year, $3,000 and worth it,and another delicate little baby with a messed up crippled leg (no one wanted her ) so a home she had to  have, how could I have not, also got a flat coat retriever, (THE BEST DOG I have ever known) Have a Basset hound and a welsh corgi, still room for more though, fact is if I was not so busy I would seriously consider opening a home for Dogs /cats that people throw away.

 

Never really been a great people person, but Animals ALL day.

Thanks Paxman... Don't know what such fine ladies are doing with a salty dog like me. As far as elevation, it was around 7000 ft.

Personally, I loved how Big Bear/ Lake Arrowhead area was 20 years ago, when it was less developed, and much less crowded— it still has a bit of charm left though. The young eagles were practicing their glides and dives over the lake.

The cool thing about that trip was that I got to introduce snow to both my daughter and my new FJ Cruiser! My wife calls the FJ my "patty wagon" cause it looks like my old LAPD NET (Narcotics Enforcement Team) Team van, when I was on the job.

We live at the beach, (per my wife), but I'm rather a "Mountain Man" at heart. The smell of pine trees is a major Zen thing for me.

I used to live in Huntington Beach....I won't tell you how long ago, I'll just tell you I bought a brand new 3BR/2BA house with fenced yard and deck a couple of blacks off the beach for $21,000...mistake.gif

1968...It was a model home built by Williams just before he started developing the city of Irvine.  One of the last homes built in that area with raised flooring and crawl space.  Since it was a model home, it came with all of the "California" extras; covered deck, fireplace, super upgraded carpeting and tile, fence, hybrid Bermuda lawn with sprinkler system (in those day, they just threw seed on most lawns), upgraded cabinetry & appliances, redwood deck furniture, wallpaper, upgrade custom paint, finished upstairs "bonus" room, shrubs, flower garden and olive tree.

GI Bill...$200 to move in...then I left for "Nam!!!mistake.gif  Sold it a couple of years later for over $40k...probably a $million home by now!
