Member No.: 34506 Nominate me as a Local Expert	I just don't seem to understand the monthly nominees for photo of the month. #5??? There are some extraordinary pictures on the featured page. I can't understand how some of those magnificent pictures are not monthly nominees. Go to the featured page on any random given day and I guarantee that the five on the top of the page will be better than the five nominated here for best of the month. -------------------- Stuart Visit my brand new summer trip to China, Malaysia, India and Egypt Visit all of my Travelogues A collection of all my worldwide travels over the course of my lifetime My latest of three separate solo U.S. road trips QUOTE Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness.

There are many beautiful photos that are featured on TravelPod! I actually use several of them as the background on my computer! There are so many great ones, that I can change the background often and always have an awesome background! -------------------- support@travelpod.com Can't figure it out ...we can! Just ask us!

But i for one do like number five, but I also like tramping through the maine woods. I would love to walk down that dirt drive and explore what is not in the picture. -------------------- View my blog entries on Bar Harbor/Acadia national Park http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entri...05168/tpod.html
