Somehow I was thinking you lived on a farm out in the country. This looks like a suburb of a big city. ;) Never saw a purple contrail. Maybe the plane is spraying some experimental global warming chemical? I saw some TV show where people were worried about the government spraying things out of airplanes. Don't know if they are all crazy or if I'm living in the X-Files universe. Maybe both are true. Your little village looks pretty crowded!

The other morning as I was driving in to work I noticed all of the trees were covered in a dusting of ice and snow. Everything looked all sparkly and clean. Wished I had had a camera with me. :dream: It was something out of a Christmas card. Oh, and your village doesn't <i>look</i> crappy. ;) Mmmmm…beautiful.

They just don't have a big city attached, but farmland instead of that. Do I really have to mention that the sunset coloured the con trail....? :s @ Lynnette: Not crappy???? Would you please take a close look at some of the roofs in those photos?! Full of pigeon crap! :lol: @ David: Villages often look a bit like suburbs.

We need some loud music or something. How about some Metallica? ;) I saw the movie Purple Rain a few days ago. It had been years since I last saw it. I forgot how good it was! Well, everything except when Prince beat Appolonia. I always thought that scene was completely uncalled for and out of character for "The Kid". He hated his father's beating his mother. He defended his mother and then he does the same thing? I never bought it. Morris Day and The Time kick ass! I love Jerome's smooth moves. :) I agree with Lynnette, its too quiet here.
