17. Your first one was so purdy I'm using it as my wallpaper today.
It replaced my festive Christmas one of the drawing room at the Biltmore Estate in Biltmore, NC.

So where is this river and what's it called?

20. Umm... I think it's called the Honeyoy river, but don't quote me. :)
Edited on Thu Dec-20-07 07:21 PM by DarkTirade
I know the falls right to the left of that pictures are Honeyoy Falls. (sometimes spelled Honeyoye)

If you want a bigger picture, lemme know what resolution your screen is and I'll make one for you.

43. It's actually a native american word from a tribe in that area. :)
Edited on Sun Dec-23-07 08:28 AM by DarkTirade
Much easier to pronounce the native american names for things in this area than it was in the place I just left... damn seminole tongue twisters... :)

And stupid redundant white people too... I lived right near the Econlocahatchee River in Orlando. Econlocahatchee in seminole means 'little river'. So I lived next to the Little River River. :)
