Let’s see if I kill this thread, too…

(that is a beautiful pic, BTW)

I bet you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting a Lutheran over there. Nice picture. Can’t wait to see more!

4. Lipstick - July 17, 2008

Thanks guys. You just can’t take a bad picture there.

5. Sobek - July 17, 2008

“You just can’t take a bad picture there.”

You could leave the lens cap on. Or get your thumb in front of it. Or photograph a Scandi.

6. cathy - July 17, 2008

You just can’t take a bad picture there.

How bout a hairy beer-gut guy in the sauna only wearing a hand-towel?

7. cathy - July 17, 2008

You just can’t take a bad picture there.

… or his wife with chin hair?

8. harrison - July 17, 2008

How bout a hairy beer-gut guy in the sauna only wearing a hand-towel?

How about two of them without the towel?

9. compos mentis - July 18, 2008

Wow, what a beautiful scene.

Strange, but I bet I stared at that pick for two minutes solid before I realized there is water in the foreground. A lake?

Thanks for sharing.

10. cathy - July 18, 2008

Michael’s got great stories about travels in Norway.

Beautiful pic, Lipstick. Thanks for sharing.

11. kevlarchick - July 18, 2008

I feel like yodelling.

12. Dave in Texas - July 18, 2008

So THIS is the home of the Scandi menace.

13. eddiebear - July 18, 2008

I went through Denmark and Sweden in July 2001. Beautiful.

Somewhere I have a picture of me standing next to The Little Mermaid Statue in Copenhagen Harbor.

Of course, I also have some photos of me holding a chimp at my 30th B-day party.

^ I forgot to add:

The link is to a citysearch link to the outfit that runs the chimp party, not to the photo of me holding the chimp.

15. skinbad - July 18, 2008

“How about two of them without the towel?”

Holding their alpine horns?

16. Lipstick - July 18, 2008

before I realized there is water in the foreground. A lake?

I think it’s Geiranger Fjord.

17. Mr Minority - July 18, 2008

I think it’s Geiranger Fjord.

I didn’t know Ford make Geirangers. Is that some new kind of SUV?

18. Lipstick - July 18, 2008

No — don’t you know that SUVs are unethical?

We should all drive golf carts to save the planet.

19. eddiebear - July 18, 2008

^or those motorized scooter thingys I see at the supermarket.

20. sandy burger - July 18, 2008

How about two of them without the towel?

Bart, you a******, you promised me you wouldn’t tell anybody about that. You promised.

21. doc - July 18, 2008

Am I the only one imagining a Photoshop of quiet little perfectown about to be wiped out by a flood from a dam breaking or mebbe an avalanche? I am? Carry on then.

22. Lipstick - July 18, 2008

Well, now that you mention it. . .

23. pajama momma - July 18, 2008

Wow lipstick beautiful photo. They should buy it from you and use it as a postcard.

You’ll make like a gajillion dollars and not come here anymore and people would be really sad.

But not me, because then I could have muslihoon…….er wait, is it kevlarchick that wants him?

You two all look the same.

24. nicedeb - July 18, 2008

Gorgeous. What are the temps there in July?

25. lauraw - July 19, 2008

Absolutely beautiful. Wow.

26. cathy - July 19, 2008

Lipstick, how’s the flu?

Did you win?

27. Sobek - July 19, 2008

I think we’ve figured out where the next IBSBP should be.

28. eddiebear - July 19, 2008

^Hey, the time lag is a nuisance though. The game starts around midnight in Europe.

29. Lipstick - July 19, 2008

PJM, that was KC — In my weakened state I couldn’t do a girl-fight now.

Nicedeb, we got really lucky with the weather and above the Arctic Circle only needed cardigans. The highs were in the 60s, but when it got cold in the higher elevations a hat was needed.

Cathy, Thanks, I’ve reached the end of the beginning of the flu. Would love to hear Michael’s adventures in Norway!

30. pajama momma - July 19, 2008

I’m glad you’ve reached the end of the beginning of the flu. (I think) I hope you reach the end of the end very soon.

That picture of Norway just looks stunning. It also looks like it smells clean if that makes any sense?

I hope you had an incredible time.

31. Lipstick - July 19, 2008

The air and the water are quite pure there.

I noticed this while smoking on the balcony.

32. pajama momma - July 19, 2008

HAHAHAHAHA
