I could live there, if it weren't for all the bugs, critters, lack of decent plumbing and running water, good refrigeration, electricity, my car parked nearby, and the over-abundance of unidentified sounds during the night, the occasional pervert possibly trolling by, and, oh yes, those cuddly, playful but pesky BEARS looking for a whitemeat luncheon. :mrgreen:

How do you know there no plumbing and running water, good refrigeration, electricity? Or a place to park the car?

Those sounds at night might a lot better than the sounds in your neighborhood, :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

As for perverts strolling by, you're in NJ - they're an indigenous population there!

Curious - how do you know you're whitemeat?
What if lollipops moaned every time we licked them?

Then, take this question seriously, if you please :

Speaking of things wood:

Loretto Chapel in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Who was the carpenter who built the spiral staircase for the Sisters of Loretto?

The Sisters needed a carpenter but none could be found to do the job as needed. Then, one day , a carpenter appeared at the chapel and did the work, disappearing immediately afterward, leaving without requesting any payment or thank you.

For awhile, the type of wood used could not be determined; nor could what was keeping it up and together since, originally, it possessed no glues , nails, or screws .

Who was that carpenter?

Actually, it is glued and laminated and has wood pegs/nails. Supposedly done by a local French immigrant carpenter

The version mentioned by Murph has been around for a while and has become a legend or folktale.
Several movies and TV shows have been done about it.

Looks like some trees were cut down that were blocking the view.
Any idea where or when this is from?
Great reflection also.
I keep expecting to see Tarzan and Jane.

Yup.

I'd think they'd be up a lot higher in the trees? :mrgreen:

Wrong type of forest. This looks more NW corner or Scandinavian
