My gosh...it's beautiful. Breath-taking pictures. Where is that located?

i live in Harpers Ferry, WV :3

Wow, that is so beautiful! And BTW, I lives one state from you...a hint. A state that is located west of WV X3

Yep, I lives in Kentucky! ^^ Not a lot of furry there in KY I think X3

I bought a car there once. We named it "Harper"

I will finally be able to associate 'Harper's Ferry' with words OTHER than 'John Brown'.

Harper's Ferry? Are you serious?! 8D
-lives REALLY close to there- xD

john browns town XD

beutiful place, reminds me of the place i lived in europe actually :3

Nice ^_^ Any good roads up them hills? :D

If good you mean scary-as-hell than yes.

heh yeh, what c5 said
there's definitely roads. i wouldn't call them good. you gotta be careful around here when you're driving on the mountain. The trails are AWESOME though!

awesome and beautiful! Especially the one to the cliffs. I FINALLY figured out what is written on them XD

I demand you turn these into porn settings. kidding

Those are beautiful :D I like the top right one.

haha honestly i probably will!!

this is beautfiul, I have to admit.

Ohh, kick ass! It's amazing.

this area, man. it's SWELL!

I have less pride in where I live after today.

Great picture take'ns BABE

TEE HEE :3

Very scenic!
All that hiking must keep you pretty fit. :3

heh not really :I
got big ol, juicy legs, though!!

nom nom

Hey, looks like a cool place! :-9

GORGEOUS! And yet rings true to home, just because it reminds me of Iowa atm?
Nice big river, changing trees, low fall sunlight...

I'd hike there too :<

Man thise r some beautiful pics. im sure you see it so much its beaty doent even faze you! D

hah i always stop and say shit like 'damn, that's so pretty' even when i'm by myself haha

Great surroundings. Must be nice inspiration for your Wanderer stories.

WV can be so fucking gorgeous at times.. that's why I don't wanna move.. lol.

Jeeze, John Denver was right. These are just beautiful.

You live in one of the coolest most peaceful looking places I've ever seen. How do you have time to take 5 hour walks?

well, i definitely don't take a five hour walk every day, heh

Hah narrarated for clarity's sake, too!

Small towns always have this nice charm to it.

/thumbsup

that's fucking beautiful :D

It looks like a nice place.

it's a little hicky, yeh
but people are super nice too
i grew up here so maybe i'm just used to it?

OH i gotcha :3

WOW! that's fucking beautiful!

when you moved to WV ?
I looked at the photos in the zip. wow that's a real nice place. I love going to forest's and natural reserves, but i don't know if i can stand a living in a rural area. I have lived all my life in a big city and it has a quite comforable living. except for transport, smog, poverty, beggars and crime lol.

i grew up here, but then moved away
and moved back recently :3
i like to live in a rural setting, i lived in the city before. i hated it! smelled bad, traffic, everyone's angry. no one says hi! but the restaurants were FANTASTIC

now I cant tell where your inspiration for 'the wanderer' came from.
did you drew furries at comic school ? what did the teachers said ?

for sure, i've always been inspired by this area and the ruins and scenery
i drew some furries at school, but not a lot. i drew them for funny stuff, gag strips, etc

You...BASTARD.

WHY MUST THE WILD AWESOMENESS OF NATURE ALWAYS BE JUST BEYOND MY GRASP?

Oh, right, I'm a pussy who never leaves the house.

STILL.

It must still be quite warm there, very green still. You have GOT to take pictures when the leaves turn. I haven't been to WV in years, but I'm pretty sure... I've been there... because I know for sure I've been to Shenandoah... like... for a while there it was every year.

it's pretty warm still, getting cool at night though!
hopefully there'll be a good leaf show this year, the past few have been blah cuz there's been so little rain :I

=^^= *meows*
it looks real good... *mew* a fantastic place for nature fun ^^

what state is Weazal in?

he told me, but i can't remember :I

Born in PA, had the best childhood ever in NJ, Highschool in CO, and currently working in the industry in the soulless smog drenched urban isolation of Los Angeles

ugh.... envy setting in... i should though take a photo of where i live when the snow goes away lol. take it in the summer time ^^ im right next to a park. if you could call it that. more like a river and some trees and a small dam and small bridges.

i like snow!

So beautiful... good ol' colonial-era towns.

Looks similar to an upper-class residential area close to me, except mine's not as hilly

Top right: if there is a college of some sort right near there, I've ruined a pair of shoes wading out to the old bridge support. If not, then... It still happened, but several miles away. :P

VA/WV are EXTREMELY beautiful; I'm just afraid of being shot. :P No, really though, though I hold no delusions that there are some racist people out there, the people my cousins have introduced me to when we visit have been nothing but pleasant. And they all have dogs :3

there's a very small college called storer college
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storer_College
but it doesn't operate these days :0

Oh, you know where it was? Shepherdstown. Near Shepherd University. There are a lot of those thingies, though... WERE they bridge supports, or something else?

Ah yeh this is quite close to there
about 20 minutes :3

As i said before, LUCKY!!!
I can only imagine how awesome those trails must be, and to live so close!

also, that's quite the river!
though there is the so-called LA "river" near my house, it's more just a... concrete trough :[

ahhh depressing :[

indeed, but it's surreal enough in certain parts, so i don't mind so much.

woa, do you actually go down into it?

used to quite a bit. little secret spots here & there.
but not in the water, dear god no! D:

you must be my tour guide sometime!

when i'm able to party hardy again, most certainly :]

Wow, it actually reminds me of harpers ferry west VA. Just as beautiful

it IS harpers ferry :3

are YOU SERIOUS?!?! XD HAHA You're like 10-20 minutes from me. I'm in shepherdstown for school lol

haaa holy shit
my mom works there, at the stone soup bistro
i go to shep sometimes, great bakery and restaurants! oh and the beer store :3
you been to the flea market out here on 340? what a cast of characters!! and so much cool junk!!

REALLY?? I go there almost every tuesday and thursday around 9ish because I miss normal dinner hours.
The restaurants are amazing, but reeeeeeally expensive x.x I love their food <3 Haven't been to the flea market yet though, but I've seen it and it looks awesome :O

i still have to check the bistro out, i heard they're gonna start doing tapas!! YUMMMM
i also want to check out the yellow brick bank, i've heard good things
i've also noted the prices around here, kind of steep at times! i guess college/touristy towns are like that, though :I

yus! Tapas! <3 The yellow brick bank is pretty good though. And yeah, prices are high here because its so far away from other places like wal-mart and the mall so owners can set a higher price because students will still pay more to not have to drive 11 miles to civilization lol.

WARNING
Bavarian Inn is having a FALL WILD GAME MENU HOLY FFFFFFUCK DEER RABBITS GOOSE BOAR ETC, i don't care if that place is overpriced and full of old people, I'M GOING

LOL that's RIGHT across the street from my dorm haha! I would go, but i'm home in VA <3 tell me how it is though :O

Reminds me of your drawings. :3

yah man! i grew up here, i have always been inspired by this place

yah man! i grew up here, i have always been inspired by this place

Hikes are grand fun. In fact I think I will go on one now.(ANYTHING TO PROCRASTINATE)

Lovely pics BTW

oh man
hikes are great
cuz it's basically an active form of doing nothing

As beautiful as it may be I would not want to live there. Although it is indeed a definate travle spot for me now.

oh! you moved? that sucks it was cool being neighbors!

yah it's just an hour or so from falls church, not too far
i'll probably be back there for some restaurant action at some point, can't beat the korean and indian joints in that area!

Aw, yeah! These remind me of when I lived in the piedmont of North Carolina (without the smog)...

Although I must say, Minnesota looks pretty awesome right now...

still want to move there at some point!
hopefully some nature nearby?

How much would you like? haha The Mississippi river gorge is a fifty-mile long nature park, all the trees are red and gold right now, and there's black bears and moose in the suburbs... All I miss are the bigger hills and the bees! LOL

I'm still gathering Minnesota stuff for ya. Sometime down the road when you're considering moving here again, let me know and I'll send it to ya.

you rock man, thanks :3
black bears?? are they nice?

They're treated like large, slightly more dangerous raccoons...

yah very small, population ~300!

I was there a long time ago with my WV studies class . I love the area.

Wow... it's beautiful!

looks pretty stupid... i'm never gonna come there...

hahahahaha stupid.

you would be tarred and feathered
fer bein' a gad dang HEATHEN

it's true! i read it somewhere.

Those shots are incredible! Beautiful area you live in!

Holy cow man, that's amazing scenery you have around there... next time I'm in that area I gotta look this place up (I was in WV over the summer for a grand total of a half hour; real quick state to drive through, heh.)

heh yah, i bet you drove through the panhandle
cuz sometimes i drive to beckley, and that takes FIVE HOURS

I think that was where we were, it was like "Oh hey, we're in West Virginia!" ... "... oh hey, we're... not in West Virginia anymore?"

OH MAN, I'll be seeing and hiking that in the next upcoming months. X3

Gotta buy a bunch of super cold winter gear clothing though. o_o

hell yeh
plus it'll be winter so it'll be all... wintry!

Are those trees growing in the old bridge columns? I love weird things like that!

lol I totally noticed that too!

yeh isn't that awesome!

Awwww! That's totally what I imagined the area to look like :D And with fall hitting, too...gosh!

Like a freakin' European town, some of those shots of your town look like! The central east continues to surprise me with its beauty. I dunno why I never noticed or haven't seen it documented as much - maybe it's some giant secret :o

That is a massive amount of work collecting all those photos and adding commentary, I'm flattered you did that all and totally appreciate it! I seriously can feel a sense of calm (and longing) after looking through all of them.

Hey, big thanks dude! We're totally even now ;)

hehehh yeh we keep it secret shhhhhhh
glad you dug em, man!

I drove thru Harper's Ferry last time I visited my extended family in Marietta. People who make fun of Appalachia for being rednecky and such have never driven through it in mid-fall. Beautiful beautiful countryside.

oh yeah, it's lovely
and it's just like anywhere else, in that there's mostly good and nice people and areas, and a few crap gross areas with some gross people.

Wow, that's a great place to have a home decade :) Hope you have many happy years there

Add the wanderer to pix 2,3 and 4 .. awesomeness imminent !!

Dude, excluding the village picture, you live in Tamriel. I though this was Oblivion screen from the thumbnail (I also woke just a sec ago and I'm not wearing my glasses) :D

hahah STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM

IT'S ALL OVER, LAWBREAKER!

Seriously, that long bridge, and that towery thing and the landscape. Yeah, you live in a videogame, dude.

niiiiiiice <3

reminds me somehow to "Needful Things or "It"

Woohoo WV!I cannot bear to be away from the mountains...

awesome town USA

Some beautiful places around there. :o

so is this what the 'real' america looks ? XD

it's what the good parts look like, ha :3

Wow, It looks like a very scenic and secluded place


nice

looks like a nice place to live at...I'd like to paint there and admire that lovely landscape...almost feel sunshine all over me :3

holy fuckin tits man. i mean damn. that is my dream place to live, fuckkkkk.

i wish i had time to take 2 hour walks every day ;~;

aw man i know, i'm super lucky
i probably wont always be so lucky though, so i'm trying to take advantage while i can!

oh for sure! i can't wait until i'm able to move to a different city (maybe even state??), but i can't right now because my bf and i don't want to quit our jobs. i mean, my house is very nice, but i hate this neighborhood :*( fuck suburbs!

You are so god damned lucky! I wish I could drop a house there. It looks like a nice and peaceful place to be. It's where I'd like to be. Or near some waterfall with lots of rock outcroppings, trees and terrain.

yah man it's super peaceful, i really dig it :3

I wish I could live there and just draw in a nice large log mansion.

Men it's the perfect place to take a big inspiration or swim, cool very cool, in your house you no have worries

Wow I just noticed you moved.

WV is beautiful. Harper's Ferry is one of my fave places to hike when I'm on the east coast.

I hope you're still enjoying the new locale.

i am!
but i plan to move again sometime soonish. later this year if our one room mate keeps fucking up :I

When i saw those, i automatically thought east US because of claustrophobicly close trees. lol.

true! i've almost always lived in this general area, so when i moved to jersey for a while, or visited florida, it was WEIRD. not enough trees! everything is so exposed, like a desert!

Oh no! The link, she is down!

ohhh shit yeh i deleted that stuff a while ago :[

Nice and quiet.
