    Very nice photo omo. I love seeing ancient architecture. I'll toss in a photo of my wife in Evora, Portugal with the Aqueduct behind her. We were dining at a roof-top restaurant, so you are not seeing the whole thing.

    Took a walk (about a mile total out and back) through a lovely nature preserve along the Gardon gorge. Most noteworthy is it took us under the largest Roman aqueduct. Now a. Now there's something you don't see every day! Now nearly 2000 years old.

  • Winter Linville Gorge

    On February 27th, 28th and 29th I did a two night out and back trip from Wolf Pit Road trail-head to Table Rock mountain and back. In typical cafe fashion I planned this trip while driving 80 mph east on I-40 heading back from the Smokies. I stopped at a McDonald's to borrow some free Wifi to get a picture of a the trails and away I went. Going up Wolf Pit road in my 2002 Honda Accord was risky with the amount of ice and snow on the road. The final hill going down to the…
  • Great Smoky Mountain National Park

    On February 25th and 26th I did a nice loop in the Smokies from Big Creek Ranger Station parking lot to Deep Gap along the AT south of Mt. Cammerer fire tower. There was about 6 to 8 inches of snow while going up. I stealth camped due to the amount of snow coming in and the next day went down the Big Creek trail. Overnight there was another 6 to 8 inches of snow and freezing fog.
