HAHAHAHA.
Nobody? Geesh, rough crowd. I thought it was funny. So instead of me googling.... Who is Katie Fisher? (Gasp!)
EDIT: NEvermind, curiosity got to me:
Kate Fisher is buried where the bearberries grow, in the sixth grave south (or left) of George Duncan’s grave on the Protestant Knoll. Better known as “Aunt Kate,” she came to Tin Cup in about 1879 and successfully ran a rooming house and restaurant. There a bed cost $1, and meals were fifty cents — hyperexpensive in times when most miners earned barely $3 a day.
Geraniums bloomed red all winter at Kate’s windows and were a welcome site to miners who spent their days underground digging for gold. Tin Cup’s children played in Kate’s backyard nearly every summer morning because they knew Aunt Kate would give them a baked treat.
And “society” ladies in fur or lace bonnets (depending on the weather), presented calling cards when they visited Kate.
Aunt Kate was dearly loved and respected by all who knew her. Upon her death at 70 years of age, Kate Fisher, a black woman and former slave, was buried in the Tin Cup Cemetery near the people who knew and loved her.
RGR, thanks!

An old saw/logging mill....
Nope. Think deeper.
Argo Mine?
I was going to say a mine as well if it wasn't a logging station.
Sorry, I spaced on this one. :o
Mining machinery but not a mine.
Hint: Someplace Cartman and Kenny might go.
Mining Museum in South Park ?

Redrocks. Getting ready to clean the men's restroom after a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert.

Speaking of space... did you know that astronauts could see the wake (white water) trailing behind major vessels in the ocean from space? I thought that was cool.
"Movie stage in Hollywood" - HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Classic.
Where is this?

Obozo's altar to the left?....
I know that one: A piece of paradise.
Some 14'er. Not Mt. Harvard.
Paradise for about 15 minutes, then the lightening rolled in and we had to run half way down the mountain. [Censor] Beautiful views, though.
That would be correct.Quote:
Some 14'er. Not Mt. Harvard.
I know this one...that's Kite lake from a little ways up Mt. Democrat....BOOYA!!![Coffee]
That sux about you getting stormed out, the view from the top is incredible! The first time I summited that one we also hiked Cameron, Lincoln, and Bross. Once we got back to that lake it was like paradise, luckily it was like 80 out so we played in the little stream that runs off of that lake...that cold water felt so good!
One bad thing about that 14ner, there's a false summit...which is always annoying!
