I really like the garden posted by Kopenhagen. My new backyard is a blank slate I would love to find the time to make something like that. It reminds me of a Japanese garden. If I cound get the tree laying on its side in Dsk's pic...it'd be great!
The Moeraki boulders posted by Am*3...bit of a mystery those things. Millions of years ago the oceans were red due to a high iron content. Stromatolites (sort of the early version of coral reefs) formed all over the planet producing oxygen creating a rust in the ocean which formed the iron deposites we dig up today and changed it's colour to what it is now.

It's possible those boulders are Stromatolites. Maybe your drier hotter weather caused the smoother shape than elsewhere.

I do love skwerls ♥
Greencat, if wally fits the theme go for it, I think everyone gets a smile out of your creativity.
This wasn't meant to be a Poor Pimpy thread, and I don't need an appreciation thread (frankly they embarass me and make me want to hide) I just wanted to be open about why sometimes I will go off and have a sulk, or seem to be losing the plot as others have suggested. I was also heckled to explain my absence. I shouldn't have to but now I have. I did not log in for a week with either id, then I eased back in by hanging out on the F&G boards for awhile and avoiding the shananigans in CS.
Hopefully you will understand what the thread means to me, It is easy to become caught up in lifes problems, and become so self absorbed in misery that we miss the wonder of what is around us.

It used to be in the rules, to include a description if the theme wasn't at first evident in the photo.
The orange cat was another great one

What a pity it has taken a month for the truth to emerge when one line and a smooth transition would have averted all the friction and not kept people in the dark and guessing what happened.
With that, I will now bow out

It was none of your beeswax. Perhaps keep your beak out of what doesn't concern you and let those who did know what was going on get on with it.

Me too, but let's just enjoy Pimpy's photo challenge. No one needs to get a holiday over his ego.

Well my post was reported, so I will just agree with Pepe

Hello, everyone. This discussion is getting a little heated. Could we please communicate with a more civil tone. Thanks!
