Thanks Ed. I do too, mainly because it shows just how much goes into building these walls that just run up and down over whatever ground is there.
Thank you Terri. I have to say that I really like your local images too. Seems that some of us maybe like "rural" and especially when it is different to where we live ourselves. "Discuss!"
Now try to tell us that is for the kids.
Yeah, dad toys for sure.
If only all transformer buildings looked like that! Nice pics Klaus. I could live there.
Thank you Klaus. It never ceases to amaze me how the drystone walls around here just march on and over any ground. I don't even have the patience to repair my own pathetically small, short-run examples when short lengths collapse, which does happen now and again (thank you moles, rabbits, time). If you were doing a jigsaw, a drystone waller's principle would be that if you pick a piece up you don't put it down until you've found its home.
That looks very idyllic, Terri. Are there trout in that creek?
Looks like a little slice of paradise. Beautifully photographed.
The very definition of rural.
We don't fish. But I found this info for you.
"Through emptying into the river, Palisades Creek is a major spawning stream for cutthroat trout. Idaho Department of Fish and Game, as part of efforts to enhance cutthroat trout populations, operates a fish trap on the lower creek. Here cutthroat trout are allowed to pass to upstream spawning areas, and rainbow trout are denied access. Harvest of cutthroat trout is denied in Palisades Creek, and it is closed to fishing yearly during the month of June, all to minimize disturbance to this native salmonid while spawning. There is no harvest limit on rainbow and trout hybrids within the creek during fishing season."
I finished it today and she was very happy with the... theme. Rura... Horse. Easy to score, these days. I owe you these:

Haha. It has been occupied by Mayla's cousin for the whole afternoon and then some
At least we both played with... smartphone. Dunno if this works:

Since I live in a very congested, highly populated suburban/urban area and due to some eye issues right now unfortunately can't take a drive out into the country (which really in Northern Virginia isn't THAT far away) to shoot some actual rural scenes, I'm sitting this one out. I've enjoyed seeing the images which actually were on topic. Seeing natural, beautiful scenery and genuine rural scenes as shown and shared by those who are actually experiencing them is quite nice, quite refreshing. It's a whole different world, isn't it?

One of my well traveled roads. Hope these look ok. I’m on a spare monitor till I get my new monitor hooked up and calibrated.
