the new "what do you look like" thread

Here I am with Deedle. He let me snap some pics, even though he is feeling shy and sleepy.

Just found this thread! And after spending an inordinate amount of time surfing through it to find people I know here is my own offering.

This might get a little ridiculous because I backed up all of the Facebook pics of me that were posted by other people a few days ago so I've been reliving the last two years of my life...which were pretty awesome. And I love sharing stories and memories (as you may have noticed in my rambles in other posts ) but I shall try to be reasonable.

Halfway up my first Monroe in Scotland, Bridge of Orchy

Fun with my aunt at the Louvre.

Meeting one of my other friends that was studying abroad in London

Me and my flatmates in Dundee, Scotland (second from left)

On our way down from Ben Nevis, the highest peak in the UK ( second from right if you haven't caught on)

Chilling at the castle in Edinburgh.

Thinking I'm awful cool leaning against a cattle stop on Isle of Sky

Paddling with my bros in SC

SCUBA!

Lost on a bus at midnight in Rome (two years ago) with my two best friends from MI

Ok I have NO idea how many that is, sorry :shy:

But one last one, taken on the beach at st Andrews, I was with a bunch of friends and cropped this for my profile but my flatmate Martin deleted the original...this is what spurred my nostalgic backup spree.

...I swear my life is usually boring it's just study abroad is the greatest thing ever.

Your pictures were GREAT!! I'm not a traveler, and really haven't gone to many places....almost none....but I always say that before I die I want to go to Scotland. In all the world it is my dream place. Did you take a load of pictures there and do you have any to share? You could start a new thread if you do, or you can just e-mail them to me......if you have any more. I would love to see some pictures of Scotland. My son studied in Italy and also went into Germany for a few days. He did this in his last year of college...last year, and was sad that he didn't study someplace different every year that he was in college

RE: the new "what do you look like" thread

Just found this thread and then snapped a quick one of myself. Not the best but oh well. ^_^

 

[cemmons12]

I don't usually have pics of me solo....don't much enjoy my pic taken.....

I always wondered what you looked like!

 

[jkingler]

Forgot to commend you all on the great pictures, but great pictures, you all!

Sidenote: I feel pretty young on this forum, which is new, since I was ancient compared to the majority of the users on my previous forum, lol.

Since this thread was started I have noticed more and more younger people joining the turtle and tortoise community.

Scotland is still my dream and I spent nearly a year there I would love so much to move there permanently. I'll do you one better than pictures and post a link to my Scotland travel blog in the off topic chit chat section

It really is! Great pics.

Thanks so much! I will be forever thankful that I was able to go, wonderful experience.

Do any of you Scotland lovers get Netflix? We just watched 'Stone Of Destiny' on instant play. True story about taking an old royal stone back from England (stolen in 1296, lol) to Scotland in 1950, a boost to Scottish pride.
Lovely country, but rotten to keep torts in!

Yeah I bet...but one could try and ill have to check that out on Netflix, there is a ton of controversy and mythology around lia fail...no one can honestly say which stones the real one anymore, there're arguments for about three. It would be cool to watch a movie about it

Huh! They SAID it was in Scotland now but had to be returned at the next Coronation. Typical, but it makes a good story!

Ok, this is me in 2000

this is me before and after cutting my hair after 20 years. These were taken in 2008

and these where taken with Cathie and a friend at Niagra Falls in October 2011

 

[Angi]

That Angi would be me. But thorse pix are about 4 or 5 years old. the little kid is my youngest son now 12 years old and 5'8". The older boy with my sister and I is now 17 and 6'5". There is a newer picture of me from my trip to Europe somewhere on this thread, but none of me with dark hair. I like to go redish brown in the fall and winter.

Yeah I figured it out finally. I didn't know if it was you or Angela (ascott). But then she told me where to find her pic at on the thread. Europe??? I never got my invite or tickets in the mail..... DARN IT!!!
