Goodnight Joe. I enjoyed your many stonehenge graphics.

Gads devolve, you are seeing things I’m not.
Who is Tony Stewart?
No mind, it’s late.

"they are too precious to put on show without extensive security."

....ah....this is England, right? Is there some reason the Tower of London would be insufficient?

...that’s the place!

I'd rather see Car-henge. At least we know who built it, how they built it, when they built it, and why they built it. An old pile of stones surrounded by conjecture seems like a waste of time. I'd bring the Game-boy along also, if I were with a group going to visit Stonehenge. I think after a few moments I'd pretty well have seen it.

I mean no disrespect to you ME-262 and I'm thinking you may be very young and not yet thinking in terms of the history of our wonderful world. These are some of my thoughts;

Relics of ancient civilizations like Stonehenge, the giant head statues [Moai] on Easter Island, the Pyramids, etc, are wonders of the world.

There are standing stone circles all over Europe. Why were they built, how were they built, we still don't know. Those people didn't even have metal tools! How did they lift the pyramid stones?

I have seen and walked through acres of fields of pyramids deep in Tulum, Mexico and when you view these ruins you feel a solemn sense of ‘time’ and awe and think about the people who once walked there.

Carhenge, in Nebraska and Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas are curiosities to give a laugh. Like the local WalMart, we know when, why and how they were built.

Remember the scene of the Statue of Liberty sunk in the sand in Planet of the Apes? That would be a relic of ‘us’.

These are NOT my pictures but show many scenes from the Mayan ruins in Tulum. They are much larger and impressive than the pictures show;

Ahhh, that’s very pretty devolve! You were busy!
I skipped around my pings in the wrong order and missed this one at the beginning!!

[potlatch]

You enlarged it with html, sure made a difference.
I'll have to try resizing in my Animation Shop and see how it turns out.

LOL!

[potlatch]

Lol, I almost posted it myself. Now you have another one to add to your ‘Stonehenge’ files!
