Are YOU a Tootle Puffer??

Most of them in Al,Ga, and TN call them scenic views. This ledge here will actually shake if you jump on it. The wife wouldn't go out on it.

Been there done that , scared the crap out of me. Funny flying in a plane or such does not bother me but looking over the edge of a cliff....

I guess it depends on what kind of "scenic view" you are after - micro or macro. I mean you could have a very pleasing view inside the car itself, right?

Has the cat bit his head since then?

Nope! Though she tried to get a bite of my thumb the other day, for no apparent reason... except that it was raining and I wasn't letting her go outside.

I wouldn't walk out on that thing either!

You can look down on things in SD?

Only when we're on our high horses! ROFL! No, actually, there ARE hills here, and some spectacular views.

I found a place in Kansas that appeared to have hills. Then I drove on a bit and realized I had been in a big gulley.

I like it. I was an Ironworker Connector for a couple of years before safety harnesses were invented and safety "belts" weren't required. Too exciting sometimes.

Not me, I can pick up a snake, smoosh a spider with my hand, face up to someone with a gun (not recommended), etc but all aluminum ladders rattle when I am on them
Strange considering I am not really afraid of dying, kinda look forward to the pain being over... the mind is a strange thing.

And on that note...

Love the black hills. Used to go off roading through all the logging trails out there

I climbed countless trees on our property before I started school. Some 40 or 50 feet. My Dad and I built a tree house with windows, door and electrical power 35 feet up in a big oak. I spent many days and nights in it for 10 years or more. Summer, winter, thunderstorms, whatever.

Ohh yeah the presidents faces are in SD too aren't they? And the alien landing site? I was there many years ago. Before the aliens showed up.

My cousins and I built a tree house about 20 ft up. Had a stove in it and all. Kinda wound up burning the tree down...

We had one that was born with eyes but they were turned all the way up so you only saw the whites. Now that was creepy but it was a sweet little kitten. Didn't live more than a few months - there must have been other stuff wrong with her, poor thing.

poor thing! luckily my baby boy has a few external deformities but is otherwise healthy.

I never cooked in mine but it had a good bed. I liked it because you had to climb the limbs to get to it. My sisters only visited a few times cause they didn't like climbin much.

Just down the road, at milepost 81. When we first moved here and my sister and her S.O. came for a visit, he laughed when I told him to turn right at the dead antelope and go 22 racoons before he passed the smooshed whitetail and he'd see our place on his left.

Always loved that song lol

I thought all the aliens were in the border states. Actually, North Dakota doesn't really exist. We made that up as a buffer to keep the Canadians away.

Thank you to all for the welcome wishes!

So far so good. Everyone here is nice, and helpful.

I've learned a lot already - but have soooo much more to learn.
