Thanks Sylvia,

I'm glad we share the same sense of humor. I have no idea of whose boat it is. You are located in a beautiful area of upstate New York which I have visited. The trees must be turning colors by now and there is nothing more beautiful. I am originally from Pennsylvania. Good to hear from you.

Yes, it is very beautiful here.

When my husband and i took a trip to England in the fall of '98, so much of the countryside there reminded us of home - same green rolling hills and pastureland with trees and small towns. Of course, no ancient stone walls!

The trees are just beginning to turn colors here now. We've had a warm fall, but the cold has begun to creep in!

Where in Pennsylvania did you come from? And where is Santee? Our 2 sons live in Mammoth Lakes in the Sierras. Wow, is it beautiful there!!!

Take care. And keep up the good work with the photos! (I like the Black Phoebe on the water fountain too.)

Hi Sylvia,
I grew up in Plymouth, PA , which is on the Susquehanna River just across from the larger city of Wilkes-Barre in northeastern PA. I have a friend who lives in Binghamton, NY. When I visited her, we did a lot of driving thru upstate New York. Santee is a growing little town about 25 miles east of downtown San Diego. The Lakes there are manmade and there is an RV campground. You can read more about it at www.santeelakes.com. I was glad to read that you liked the Black Phoebe on the water fountain cause I hesitated in posting that one. Thanks for writing.

Looks like it's run out of gass in the midlle of the lake, LOL.
