Room with a View

What do you look at all day when you're not staring at your screen?

I'll start...



I watch interesting pedestrians walking past my window all day.
It's the best form of people-watching--I don't even have to get up from
my seat to do it.

You can see the hotel directly from your window? That's cool.

P.S. The first image has an error. It doesn't display. But why do you display the same hotel three times?

Well my bedroom view at my uni flat is...



And the slightly nicer (?) view from the lounge when playing on the consoles...



And finally, when back at my parent's house and in the study, I get the much nicer view of my neighbours house...

The view from my room this year isn't that great. It's just
looking out at some tennis courts. The parking lot is off to the
right, but you can't see it.

It's been raining off and on all week, and its been very cloudy.
On clearer days you can see some really nice mountains in the distance.



The screen and rainstained glass don't really help the picture quality...

My room is in the basement, so...

Nickelplate is my dad

This is my back yard:



It's a pretty good view of the guest house across from the garden. You can see the man w/bucket there...I pay him to scrape the algae from my fountain. You can also spot a vagrant or two- they're always coming around begging for crumbs of bread and whatnot.

ummmm.... why is there outside siding on the inside of your hosue eh?

Nice guest house

Well, my window opens out to a blank wall... but there was one day of clear weather right after I moved in when it was actualy interesting to look at, so I took this picture:

Some people are like slinkys...

They aren?t really good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one tumbles down the stairs.

That's not siding. Those are curtains. Are you accusing my photo of not being authentic?!! GOSH!!!

In that case, can you loan me one trillion million dollars, Biological

My grand parents have the best view. 5th story condo which faces
the final approach of Montreal airport, which has 2 runways parallel to
each other for commercial airliners. What more could I want? :biggrin:

Either of these links lead to the main site. The only image is of two beautiful children and I assume they are not yours since this thread is about the view outside your window.

I do however know exactly what El Paso looks like and, consider yourself lucky. It could look as bad as Amarillo or Barstow.

Yes, I can see that you live in a neighborhood infested with people who desire your access passwords

and,
I am so thankful you posted those in thumbs. The file sizes are considerable. In fact, this whole thread is getting hard to view. Perhaps the thumb codes need to be employed guys??? (hint,hint)

yeah but you can play whenever you want

Through my four years of college, I think I played tennis once.

Obviously, it's not my favorite passtime. I do go gawking at
girls at the swimming pool frequently. That was my hobby.

My gosh, gimpinthesink, use hangers for those coats. It really
stretches the fabric out of shape when you hang them like that.
