VaBeachGuy 12 Posted June 14, 2008 That is bad babe, stay inside. I love seeing pics of your neighborhood though, such a pretty area. Yeah, I can even smell the smoke in the house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted June 15, 2008 Here's a couple of night shots where you can tell it's smokey (at least I can). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VaBeachGuy 12 Posted June 15, 2008 Literally the view from my window The park in my home town That bottom tree is a great looking tree, I know it's not one but it almost reminds me of a weeping willow. I seem to have a size limit on attachments per post so I'm doing this in two posts. Near where work Great pictures. I've gone into the settings and changed the size limits so you shouldn't have that problem again. This is a waterfall, sprinkler thingy my father and I built on the grounds of Casa Kor. Its got goldfish in the pond area. Looks great. My uncle wants to build a waterfall and pond in his back yard for Koi fish. I think it gets too cold in Alexandria in the winter for Koi fish though.

Kor37 9 Posted June 16, 2008 My uncle wants to build a waterfall and pond in his back yard for Koi fish. I think it gets too cold in Alexandria in the winter for Koi fish though. Funny you should mention Koi fish. This is a little pond that we built in another part of Casa Kor which has Koi fish in it. They can survive the cold. The top freezes over in the winter. The trick is to put water plants in the pond. The fish feed on that in the winter when the pond ices over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kor37 9 Posted June 16, 2008 This pic isn't so good. We have a little bird sanctuary on another part of the grounds. This is a Pheasant with some new hatchlings. I had to take the pic from outside the cage. If I open the cage, Mama pheasant will attack to protect the babies. I'll try to get some better shots and post them.

Kor37 9 Posted June 16, 2008 Here is a clearer pic of the Mama pheasant and some of her chicks. I managed to open the door to the cage and snap a quick pic. As you can see, she spotted me and was just coming towards me when I got the cage closed again.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corina Arazius 1 Posted June 22, 2008 Awwww lol well I haven't been to the beach in a long time but I'm pretty sure I've been there at night. It's kind of freaky though cause that's the time that sharks get close to the shore. Ugh I get freaked out thinking about stuff under the water. lol Well I don't know how I'd stand the 115 degrees but it looks nice and I like the style of the buildings lol. You must be part Vulcan RC to stand the heat, and that's a compliment btw :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RikerChick 5 Posted June 22, 2008 Roy, you're old enough to be Corina's father. That officially makes you one creepy dude. If she were your daughter I suspect you would beat the crap out of a nearly 40 year old man hitting on her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
