Smile In the spirit of Mr. Burton... - 03-03-2006, 04:05 PM


My errands took me east of DFW Airport today. Stopped for a while to exercise the shutter. This is one of several shots. Anyone care to venture a guess as to where specifically this is located?

Yes, it is granite with water running down it. Hence the shine. There are I believe six of these columns erected in the same area. Sort of a granite/water display.

Thumbs up Taken For Granite - 03-04-2006, 11:40 AM


I've seen those many times, but I just passed them by, "taking them for granite."

BTW: The thread title might make it sound as though I've recently departed. Thanks, however, for the honor.

LOL We used to say that kind of stuff in school not knowing that it was incorrect. That and a lot of other stuff. :-)

You're welcome. Yeah, it does a little, doesn't? I'll be more careful with choosing my titles in the future. I wouldn't want to confuse anyone.
