My online HAPPY PLACE! Where's yours?
This is where I go almost daily to look, relax, and enjoy the view.
I grew up on this lake and find it calming to view.

So.... Where do you go online to rest your tired eyes, your wearied mind, your burdened soul? :hi:

1. OK, I'll say it for everyone else who thinks it right away.
They don't allow those kind of links at DU.

6. In the end, don't we all go home?
Edited on Sun Sep-21-08 01:54 PM by Whoa_Nelly
Or, at least return to the "home" of personal peace in our lives?

Hey there, ptah! :loveya: :hi:

9. Astronomy Picture of the Day

I love the beautiful pictures they put up every day (well, not so much today). It makes me contemplate the complexities of the universe and wonder in awe at the processes that created the objects shown in the pictures each day.

19. Very cool!
Have an old friend that lives down the road from Grand View and golfs at The Pines frequently...meet anyone named Alan?


Am hoping to go up to Gull and stay at a friend's cabin for a week or so next summer! :woohoo:

Will you be going back?
Where did you stay while there this past summer?

20. Alan, huh? :)
Gull is very nice (and pricey:P)

A group of us go up every year. We stayed in one of Grand View's Golf Suites; we golfed 5 rounds over 3 days. :woohoo:

It's really beautiful up there. :hi:
