Sure was a beautiful blue sky for you -- otherwise it could have looked kinda desolate out there in the lava beds.

This is Paulie. Come and see my new blog.

BTW, you asked about photo space. Click on the photo icon and instead of doing anything, look at the bottom of the rectangle that pops up and it tells you how much space you have left to load photos.

That looks like some rugged terrain. I can't imagine what it was like putting in the roads. The sky-graph is just breath taking. Thank you for sharing.

GMG said...

Hi Lilli! First of all many thanks for your comment on my post of 08.08.08 at 08h08 at Blogtrotter, now in Kos, Greece! It was great to read you there. Second, sorry for the long delay to come here, but August was a terribly busy month, as everybody else seems to be in vacation…
Anyhow, I found sometime now to land here and enjoy your blog. It's amazing: I've some lava pictures to show, but with my delay, it may take one year until I reach them... ;)
Wish you a great weekend!

Celeste said...

You always get such cool shots, the third one is my favorite with the dark rock in the foreground and the light fluffy clouds behind.

D Herrod said...
