Okay, so credit for this thread goes to AncientGoth and the great title as well

Everyone on this board lives in different and contrasting places so it will be fun to post pics of our local area.

Bear in mind when posting pictures and info that this is a public forum where anyone can lurk - so please be cautious about posting information about specific locations

Its funny that I'm starting this as I live in the most boring place out of anyone on this board

Where I live we do have an artificial snow slope - the building pictured here:



Exciting I know

In 2005 Green Day came here, I went to the concert, and it is generally regarded as one of the best gigs ever staged this side of 2000. Here's a pic

Thanks for that reminder. You may have a small, tight-knit group who regularly post, but that doesn't mean that others don't lurk.
Doesn't look boring to me. Would much rather have to go inside to artificial snow than shovel the real stuff.

AncientGoth

Boring only to you, Steve! Looks like a great rec center...wish we had one like that!
All I've got is:



WOODS...part of my back yard.

Thanks Chris for checking this thread out to make sure it's okay

And I guess its only boring 'cos I've lived here so long

A-G it must be amazing having woods right outside your house Are they haunted woods?

AncientGoth

All woods are haunted to some extent Steve...and they are most beautiful at night by the full moon...which is tonight, I believe, i'll see what kind of pic I can get!

Anyway, here's the front of my house decked out in window wreaths and lighting for Christmas::

That looks beautiful well done!

AncientGoth

Tried to take pics of the "moonlit" landscape but my digital Kodak Camera was not up to the task. Final phase 4 and 5 pics coming soon.

A-G what kind of animals live in those woods?

AncientGoth

Here's what i see regularly in my back yard...mostly at night:



There are occasional others but these are the most common!

It doesnt look boring to me steve, and i think ive been to your town, it was nice. Id love to see Green Day in concert but theres zero chance of them ever coming here.

AG, your house looks real cool though i cant see the pics of the woods, computers being weird again!

ill post something the next time i come on.

StartSomething

Wow AG it must be really interesting seeing all those animals Is that a bat?

Do you have bears?

AncientGoth

Not normally...but we have had occasional stray Black Bears(small but mischievous)which the County Wildlife Department tracks, drugs and returns to the Northern Catskill Mountains where they live.Oh, and yes, Indiana bats which are endangered - we have loads in the summer - fantastic creatures! Have had 4 in my house since I have lived here - got 3 of them out unharmed the other wasn't so lucky as it got caught in one of my mouse traps

Here's a few I forgot:
