  5. Hee hee!

    At first I was wondering why Texas was divided into a few large counties... before realizing THE MAP IS UPSIDE-DOWN. Great Lakes + Michigan do not Texas make.

    Have a happy new year!

  7. Very cool - bicycle across America. The image has a young and energetic spirit. Careful about squashing bugs in Iowa and Illinois, though.

  22. Love the colours!

    I look forward to visiting your blog more often this 2008. And you're welcome to mine, too! For some reason, my link was not included in the participating blogs for the 1st of January 2008 theme day. Sorry I wasn't able to visit your blog sooner. I was in transit the whole of yesterday. I am now back in Norwich after the most fantabulous time at home in Manila.

    Happy New Year to you and everyone you hold dear!
