Pictures from Maine

I scanned in a few pictures from our trip to Maine to visit [livejournal.com profile] foolcat and [livejournal.com profile] drturtle... it's not quite the same as being there, and some of the colors got a little weird when I was trying to tweak them, but at least it gives you an idea of what the scenery is like.



Random scenery in Machias



Bad Little Falls (really!) in Machias



[livejournal.com profile] sdavido at a fort I can't remember the name of... behind him is a line of towers which are the easternmost point of the early-warning system. Unfortunately they're blending into the fog



The sign reads: Bucks Harbor Shopping Mall



A friend's backyard



Jasper Beach - yes, the beach is all rocks



In front of a store called 45th Parallel. Sign reads: Halfway between the Equator and the North Pole


As you can see, it's very pretty up there! But cell phones don't work, so nobody can reach you while you're admiring the scenery... :-)

(And thanks to World tech support for telling me how to put the pictures up!)

I see you solved your posting problem.

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2004-07-20 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, with a little indirect help from you. I had the pictures up but I couldn't get the caption part to work. So I backtracked to your post from your trip here, and copied your shortcut.

I've learned how to do many things by looking at others' html.

It is nice to be able to look behind the scenes, so to speak.

I wouldn't know anything about codes if you couldn't.

It was thoughtful of somebody to code that into the browsers.

[identity profile] pressburger.livejournal.com 2004-07-23 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
I would imagine he did that so he could view other people's code.

Could be.

Oh what gorgeous photos! Thanks for sharing them!

You're very welcome, thanks for appreciating! :-) It seemed a shame to drive all that way and not be able to share...

You may have realized that I got that moose at the 45th parallel store. They had some cool things there.

Sadly, it wasn't a favorite of mine. I prefered Jasper Beach, and the shopping mall, of course *grin*. The name seemed to be a bit of a joke. The place had less than a standard gas station convenience store.

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2004-07-20 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
But it was the largest store for several miles...

[identity profile] sdavido.livejournal.com 2004-07-21 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
As well as the only story for several miles . . .

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2004-07-21 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Details!

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2004-07-20 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I hadn't realized that, actually. There was a lot of stuff in that store...

[identity profile] sdavido.livejournal.com 2004-07-20 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Very well posted, of course *grin*

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2004-07-20 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! Sorry about the foggy towers...

[identity profile] sdavido.livejournal.com 2004-07-21 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
NOt a problem. I think they all came out well. Wow! More new icons!

[identity profile] vettecat.livejournal.com 2004-07-21 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I loaded them all at the same time, I've just been using some more than others.

Gorgeous pics; thanks for sharing :) -H...

My pleasure, thanks for enjoying them!
