Here's a pic of our beautiful Mount Hood with Portland in the foregroud from the Oregon Tourism website www.traveloregon.com.

For us, the Oregon Coast is a 90 minute drive away. Here's one of our beaches at sunset.

But if we drive more than a couple of hours the other way, we're in the desert.

Well we're stuck in the middle of an island with a few beaches. Nothing interesting here. But I'll post a pic of my house only because it is the only thing I can think of, the beaches are covered in snow, and so is ... well everything else.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid39/p3cd5a9dd8b31033f206ad30485940da7/fd0d39dd.jpg

Of course it is a little crooked because I took it from a tree, where I go to take pictures of everything; my neighbors playing, peoples houses & Christmas lights, etc. But that pic was taken in the summer, well obviously. ;) Just...umm... I don't want any people coming to my house lol so I reserve the right to take this down at any time (don't know why anyone would come to my house though lol). :D

Ok, I'll post a few of New Orleans.
The city: See that tall square white building sort of in the background? That’s where I work.

The French Quarter:
http://www.animalsoup.net/members/tdomil/quarter.jpg
http://www.animalsoup.net/members/tdomil/NewOrleans_FrenchQuarter.jpg
The infamous Bourbon Street in the French Quarter: Personally, Boubon Street can be fun in some spots, but mostly, I think it’s nasty. I stay away from it because it’s mostly lots of drunk people, bars, and strip joints with a few restaurants thrown in. Most of the natives, myself included, prefer Frenchman St. It has great cozy little jazz bars and dance places.

The Steamboat Natchez on the Mississippi River:

Down here, it‘s NOT a trolley, it’s a Streetcar!
http://www.animalsoup.net/members/tdomil/Streetcaruse.jpg


Of course, I have to post a few pics of the city during Mardi Gras as it is
Mardi Gras time now. Tons of tourists and parades. I love that saying...Why
do they call it tourist season if you can't shoot them?! I try to stay out
of the city during Mardi Gras because it's just nuts...but I will
occasionally go down to Bourbon Street and have dinner with Joey on one of
the restaurant's balconies and watch all the crazy tourists down below.
