1. They're Beautiful Peggy,

but I don't see Rev's legs anywhere!



:spray: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear Southpawkicker!

Thanks!

Now, see here....Rev's legs don't live here! So they couldn't possibly be in my thread, now could they?

Glad you like these!

:rofl:

[SPKrazy]

30. But Rev Might Be Hiding In Here

or she might be a mermaid according to Gray

so I'm going to look around in here for her.
If I see her I'll run her out, she's becoming a pest I'm afraid.

I thought I saw her down below, but I'm not sure.

I'm sure we won't hijack your thread or anything!

Beautiful pics ya know, did you know that Peggy took them?

she's a good photographer

and she's real nice and she's pretty HAWT too!

:loveya: :hug:

shhhh, don't tell her that I'm sneaking around looking for Rev

[RevolutionaryActs]

2. Beautiful!

I love the third one. :hi:

[SPKrazy]

3. Yeah, but where's your

LEGGS

OR YOUR FINS OR TAIL IF YOU ARE A MERMAID!


:spray: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. My dear Rev!

Thanks sweetie!

That third one is kinda nice, huh?

Glad you had time to come by......

Who's your friend? :rofl:

:hi:

[RevolutionaryActs]

10. LOL!

Hey, I always have time for Peggy! :hug:



:P

[SPKrazy]

36. Rev, Get Out Of Here!

you aren't supposed to be in Peggy's thread

go back to your boobie thread or whatever body part you are posting or teasing about today.

and get some rhinoplasty or something!

I'm kidding about that

but let's go, we can't steal Peggy's thread.

:rofl:

[SPKrazy]

31. Pssssst!

Rev is that you?

get out of Peggy's thread will ya

I know what you're up to!

It won't work

Toby isn't in here

:rofl:

[RevolutionaryActs]

34. Shhh

go take some more Benadryl. :P

[SPKrazy]

37. Rev, Come On

let's go somewhere else

Peggy's thread is not the place to hijack

Gray thinks she is talking to Lukas on Myspace.com

I wonder why?

:rofl:

[bigwillq]

5. Lovely Peggy!

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. My dear bigwillq!

Thanks! :hi:

[Haole Girl]

8. I was so hoping they would be of the ocean...

..thank you for sharing these...I love them.

Is that your daughter in the bottom right (in the last sunset pic)?

:loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. My dear KC2!

And when do I do anything but the ocean?

I was honestly afraid that folks might be tiring of these....

Glad to hear that's not the case!

So happy that you love these!

No, the girl was not my daughter.....she lives 50 miles from here!

Good eye, though.......I didn't even spot her till you made me look!

:loveya:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

9. Beautiful as always!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. My dear Duckie!

Oh, thank you!

Glad you like them!

:hi:

[EstimatedProphet]

11. That sunset pic is stunning!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

17. My dear EstimatedProphet!

Oh, thank you so much!

I just point the camera, and it does the rest!

:hi:

[qnr]

12. Very nice. I especially like #2 and #3 n/t

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. My dear qnr!

#2 is Catalina Island......and #3 is the sunset, of course!

Glad you like these!

I always enjoy my trips down there.........

:hi:

[Neshanic]

13. Nice, nothing beats a California sunset with the coast mountains.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. My dear neshanic!

Oh, thank you!

Yeah, I love the look of the coast mountains here.......

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

14. Beautiful...

but how long will it last?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. My dear Elrond Hubbard!

How long will what last?

The sunset is long gone......

The pictures will endure until the end of time, or until I delete them...

Whichever comes first.......

Glad you enjoyed them, however long they're around.......:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

43. The things that you took pictures of...

the landscape.
I was wondering how long all of it will last, given the state of things in our world...a rather pessimistic rumination, I'm afraid...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

44. I see...........

Well, I expect that the landscape will actually last longer than we humans.....

I understand your pessimism, even though I don't share it.......

I don't know why, but I truly believe we can (and will) save ourselves....

And our world too.........:hug:

[Redstone]

18. #2 is a winner. Pitch the rest.

If you're going to be a photographer, you must learn to be brutal in your triage.

Any picture that you think anyone might have taken a similar version of, that's gotta hit the trash.

But I have to tell you, #2 is good. And that one out of five is not bad at all by today's standards, with digital cameras and all.

Redstone

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. My dear Redstone........

I honestly do appreciate your assessment.......

I agree completely!

#2 is more subtle than the others.......

I wish I could have truly captured how it looked to me.......

It almost shimmered as though it were floating on the water......

Thank you!

You do not praise lightly.........and therefore what you have said to me here has great weight for me....

:hi:

[Redstone]

28. Ya welcome. You can always count on me for the unvarnished truth. If, of course,

the question is about something that I know something about.

Unlike just about every other guy in America, I will freely admit that I don't know much about a particular subject, instead of pretending to be an expert on everything.

But photography, I know.

[SeattleGirl]

20. Greetings from Oregon, Peggy. Gorgeous pics!

I especially like the 3rd and 4th ones! :loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. My dear SeattleGirl!

Oh, thank you, sweetie!

Glad you like these.......

I love the colors in the sunset ones......

Hope you're having fun with your family in Oregon!

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:

[SPKrazy]

33. Hey Sis!

I'm looking for Rev, have you seen her in here?

I think she's trying to hijack Dear Peggy's thread with her beautiful pics and all.

We can't let her do that.

:hide:

[haf216]

21. Very nice pics.

And very peaceful.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. My dear haf216..........

Thank you!

Glad you like these..........

:hi:

[BlueStorm]

23. Very beautiful Peggy...

I love the water. I have been told that I have come from the Ash and Water bloodlines so that could explain why I am so attracted to such elements.

Sunsets over Lake Michigan are beautiful too.

I really enjoyed these pics.

Blue

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. My dear BlueStorm.....

I'm so pleased you like these!

I too love the water......

I can watch it in all it's different forms nearly endlessly........

Sometime you should take some sunset pics from Lake Michigan......

And let us admire them!

:hug:

[BlueStorm]

40. If I can ever get out there again.

I haven't been out there in like 2 years.

I don't have adequete transportation to get out to Grand Haven or Norton Shores.

[Haole Girl]

26. May I ask you something else?

What grade did you get on that short story? I was just remembering that story this morning...for no apparent reason. It was very moving. :hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

38. My dear KC2!

You can ask me anything at any time, sweetie!

I didn't get a grade on my story, because I wasn't taking the class for credit....

But...My teacher had some very complimentary things to say about it....

So.........it most likely would have been a pretty good grade, I think!

:hug:

I'm glad you enjoyed it......

[huskerlaw]

35. Lovely!

I hope you took a jacket...it's been getting downright COLD when the sun goes down!

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

39. My dear huskerlaw!

Oh hell yes!

Not only a jacket, but I had my little sweater vest on too.......

Over my long-sleeved turtleneck shirt!

It was a mite chilly down there!

Glad you liked these.....Thanks!

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

41. Very nice!

What are those posts in the second picture for?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

42. Those are for beach volleyball, my dear KitchenWitch!

Glad you like these!

Thanks for coming by!

:hug:

[puerco-bellies]

45. Hi C-P We left the warm embrace of Manhattan Beach for Big Bear via Hwy 38

One thing we don't see here in the Los Angeles area is frozen waterfalls.

My sweetie Alison and her daughter Blaise.



A wider view.

The attempted hijacking of your beautiful picture thread is now over.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

46. My dear puerco-bellies!

Wow, these are wonderful!

You really should have your own thread, you know!

Not that I mind your coming into mine......

Those frozen waterfalls are amazing!

Thanks for sharing tonight!

BTW....did you like mine, by any chance? :blush:

:hi:

On edit: I see you did like mine!

[liberaltrucker]

47. Wow. Beautiful diversion from the desert here in Needles

And from the winter stuff I went through in New Mexico
enroute to here. Thanks!

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

48. My dear liberaltrucker!

Oh, thank you!

Glad you liked these!

I had so much fun taking them.....

It is a bit of a change from all the ice and snow you came across!

:hug:

[u4ic]

49. Peggy,

those pictures are spectacular.

You'll win that contest yet! :hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

51. My dear u4ic!

Sweetie....you are waaaay too kind!

I'm so glad you like these......:hug:

I am truly at a loss for words at your praise...... :loveya:

[MsKandice01]

50. Is that Catalina I see??

Beautiful pics, Peggy.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

52. My dear MsKandice01!

Oh, thank you soooo much!

And, yes, that is Catalina Island....

26 miles in a leaky old boat....

The picture doesn't really do it justice.......

It seemed to float in a misty pond, just above the water........

Glad you're enjoying these!

:hug:
