6. I think it looks satelite-like too, but don't think it is
the person that took it probably is not an astronaut. I will post the answer if I get it, meanwhile with DU's help I might be the one who "figures it out" heh heh

21. River ice and water!
see down below

had snow a couple days ago! but now it is just gorgeous. And emotionally the difference between yesterday and today is indescribable. We were an inch from losing a major water supply the first of April. Haven't been sleeping real good since finding out, then last night got the word we have more time. We are still going to have to sink a new well ($$$ OUCH) but now we have a little more time and a chance to get the summer rain first. WHEW!

Was in Tucson last night for a meeting - oh man does it smell good down town, don't know what was blooming - maybe citrus? beautiful!

20. ok it was way too obvious
apparently it is a view from a high bridge (200 to 300 feet) over the North Saskatchewan River. It is ice and running water. I didn't get it either - looked like ice, but I wanted it to be shoreline too.
