As we seem to have quite a bit of chat lately about Chernobyl, these are a few shots I took a couple of years ago on my visit to Chernobyl and Priypit.

Hope that place has been thoroughly cleaned up; watching the TV series makes you think the radiation will be in that area for 100's if not 1000's of years and don't go picking up any graphite.....

Found this info tidbit.

But that's not to suggest that the area has returned to normal, or will at any point in the near future. Because of the long-lived radiation in the region surrounding the former Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, the area won't be safe for human habitation for at least 20,000 years.

Gave my Son the Blackstar amp a few weeks ago that a friend of mine at the gym gave me,  he is always on the look out for a new Guitar so he traded in one of his "Jackson" Guitars and picked up this beautiful, Teal Blue Flying V signature model by Dave Mustaine. Quite the beast, sounds great.  The " Cleans" on this are just incredible. 

What do I do? I am just the " roadie" and plug in and move his Guitars around LOL!

Went for a late evening walk earlier and Blake seems very appropriate for a few pics I took 🙂

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?

And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark Satanic mills?

Bring me my bow of burning gold:
Bring me my arrows of desire:
Bring me my spear: O clouds unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire.

I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land.

As Ivan alluded to in another thread... England still has some impressive and beautiful places to visit. Same goes for the rest of the British Isles.

Its only some cities and very grotty run down towns that let's it down. Oh! And their inhabitants.

Yep, less than 6% of the UK is built on/developed -

Beautiful Terry, wifey and I are firming up a trip here soon for August.....tough choice between Vancouver and perhaps in your area..The Rocky Mountains. 

Summertime here in the states in Calif is real nice.....take her down a few blocks from the house here to jog at the local High School. She digs the weather here and no humidity and loves running outdoors in the morning, where I like running here after dinner.
