Title: Some pics taken at or around my house
Post by: jedi on February 18, 2014, 09:19:35 PM
I live in Northern Maine, in the great North Maine Woods!  A very beautiful part of Maine folks here refer to as The County.  People in Central and Southern Maine, call this area "The Other Maine".
In spare time, when "I've Got a Life", I love to take pic's.  I'm not the best at it, and having a very nice DSLR (Nikon with about a dozen different lenses) makes it real easy to get some good shots once in a while.
I'll post some of the ones I've taken over the last 4 or 5 years, up to today, for you to get a chuckle out of!

Shrooms?
