** FULL VIEW PLEASE **

This is dedicated to =fluffyvolkswagen just to show Ash that there is more to America than just Disneyworld! :laughing: and to get her to post more pictures of her wonderful Ireland :fingerscrossed: for us poor saps who can't afford to go there :D

This was just one of our many views of Northwestern Arkansas on our way home today. It really is a beautiful state ~ and the "Arkysaw" reference is what friends of ours who live in Arkansas call their home state, when they get reminded that Arkansas is usually 49 or 50th in S.A.T. scores, and literacy :faint: :omg: :laughing: so for us, it is really become an endearment! :love:

And because the temperature was in the 80's (farenheit) I doubt we had to worry about the message that the sign is trying to convey :D

Edit 7/15/08 ~ if you would like to see more of our shots from the road, and funny things we see while traveling, please visit our new acccount :iconour-road-kill-cafe: ~Our-Road-Kill-Cafe

Oh, what a fantastic view! It looks a lot like the country where I live, in the Eastern Township, in Québec. I love long hills! =D Mus be great to ride along the road and see gorgeous landscape.

You live in a beautiful place, Alice. :hug:

Thank you Anne! :hug: Perhaps you and Daniel should enter our contest, and show us what Eastern Township looks like! :D the information is on my front page, in my latest journal :nod:
It was wonderful to see the gorgeous landscape, as we drove along.... thru northwestern Arkansas, and southwestern Missouri :dance: I actually live in Kansas, which has places that look like Arkansas.... but, also places that look totally different! :D But really, I was enjoying entertaining myself with the camera on that day, and it keep me from getting bored, while we drove along :clap: Thanks for your kind comment, and the :+fav:!! I appreciate both!! :hug:

I just read the journal for the contest, and it's looks great! :dance: I also watch the tutorial made by your husband, it's very helpful. I'm not used to do collage, but I might give it a try. =D

Any participant have send any work yet? So I can have an idea what it looks like. :)

You're welcome Ash! :hug:

Be patient on the pics :faint: we figured out that we had 3 days to clean up the back... before we need to be back to normal work on Monday... so we've been trying to kill ourselves cleaning out flower beds and such :phew: We're both cooling down (literally! :D) on DA right now... and as soon as the :sun: shifts back off the main iris bed... we've got to re-plant the tons and tons of irises that we dug out, split apart, and cleaned up! Some of them needed moving so badly... that they had pushed up and were growing almost completely on the top of the ground :faint: Right now, they are mounded up in the wheel barrow, waiting to be replanted... Bob has run the tiller in the bed, and has it ready... now it will take us a freakin' year to get them back in the ground :phew: but it will all be worth it... but, I simply don't have the energy left for a collage right now :omg: Infact, I've got a washcloth full of ice on the back of my neck, and typing seems soooo very difficult at the moment, that I think I'm gonna stretch out, while I wait for the :sun: to shift the iris bed back into the shade :wave: :blowkiss: :sprint:
