Beautiful , but is the horizon tilted down a little on the left?

 

[cdryden]

Yeah, I'll fix that, sorry.

 

[Zil]

That's a really nice sky!

Mind if I use this as my desktop background?

 

[tirediron]

Is it actually twelve feet deep?

So, you actually are a gentleman AND a scholar! Believe it or not, Sam Clemens was born just a short distance from where I took this picture. Just across the lake and to the right. Only, it wasn't a lake back then!

I hear the lake was formed when Halley's comet hit the Earth there or something...

Well, Samuel Clemens was born and died with the coming of Halleys comet 1835-1910, but the lake was made when they dammed up the Salt river in the 70's. As far as I know the comet is still in it's orbit due to come back around sometime in 2061!

I know. It was a weak attempt at making an obviously erroneous statement based loosely of misconstrued facts in the name of humor. Sorry.

Don't be sorry, it made me laugh!
