Well, you know.....I just felt like posting a pic...Here's one

[CaliforniaPeggy]

that I haven't shown you before....From last winter!

[ZombieNixon]

1. Oooh...purdy!

:o Where is that? :shrug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. My dear ZombieNixon.......

Thank you!

This pic is of the Manhattan Beach Pier.....which is about one and a half miles from my home....

A winter sunset.....

:hi:

[ZombieNixon]

7. What was the temperature like then?

Maybe it's all the oranges in the sky, but that picture "looks" warm. :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. It may look warm, but believe me........it wasn't!

:hug:

[aquaman]

2. That's a beautiful picture.....

although the first thing I thought when I saw it was global warming. Good thing, according to Rush, that global warming does not exist. Whew, I feel better. Hope you are well Ms. Peggy. :toast:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. My dear aquaman!

I'm glad you like my picture!

It could be that the colors are from global warming....I don't know....

BTW, thank you for your concern...So far, I am well!

We'll know more next week, though...

[swag]

14. Congratulations on the Camry. It looks very nice.

Prius is doing well, though it barely has 8,000 miles on it for the year. The bus pass and the bicycle are doing well also, obviously.

It was at the summit of Haleakala volcano in Maui. It's been posted on DU before. I have more cool Hawaii shots in my DU journal.

[u4ic]

23. That's a lovely sunrise pic!

:hi:

Are those clouds or mountain tops?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

25. Both.

I'm standing on the summit of Haleakala volcano (highest point on Maui-10,023') which is in the foreground and the volcano is surrounded by clouds. You can see more of the pictures from Hawaii in my DU journal here.

[Haole Girl]

37. Thank you for sharing that

It brings back memories *sigh*...I used to take long walks up and down Manhattan Beach- at least 2 or 3 times a week when I lived in Southern CA. If I had several cool million to burn, I'd definitely own property there.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

38. My dear KC2!

I love to share my pictures....it makes me happy to do so!

Glad you like this one.....

Several cool millions is right.....and even then you have no privacy, no place to park, and so on.....

But I agree, it is a lovely place for the views.....I always feel so alive and close to God when I go onto the Pier!

:loveya: :hug:

[RFKHumphreyObama]

39. That is truly magnificent

Sometimes it just seems beyond belief that we have such a wonderful and magnificent natural world around us -my gosh, I can't believe how beautiful that scene is

And you are excellent at taking good quality photographs -but then again you must already know that :thumbsup:

[CaliforniaPeggy]
