Subdude Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 You know, you're really getting good. I especially like the one with Sam Houston pointing at the jet contrail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Nice pics, 1100, but I must correct you on the church on Montrose. It is the Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist. This denomination is not to be confused with L. Ron Hubbard's Church of Scientology, of Tom Cruise fame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great Hizzy! Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 LOL @ L. Ron Hubbard Again, very nice set of pics from your larger collection . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) Thanks! I can't change the name on my picture thread, because when I posted all the photos, they molded into one post, and when I try to edit it, it says "Sorry, but your posting too many pictures" but Thanks for the correction! Hizzy: I can't post but 10 pictures per post So I thought I would just share the ones I liked (or got the most compliments on).

As long as Tom Cruise isn't looking at the thread, I think you are safe. Of course, if he is, he is liable to go all MI-3 on yo' ass.

mls1202 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Montrose, my wife and I have moved from Houston to Tyumen, Siberia this past February for my job. I've been saving each of your pictures to show her at home--you have no idea how homesick we've become. Seeing your pictures has really helped. Please keep them coming--maybe I'll post some pictures of Siberia as soon as I can figure out how. In keeping with people's names, I should probably change from mls1202 to Houstonian_In_Siberia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister X Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 (edited) Great photos. I especially like them because they show a typical day in Houston. They aren't pretentious, overly cropped, or glamourized and they STILL make Houston look beautiful and natural. This is what people mean when they say "substance". Whenever anyone starts to rag on all the things that are wrong with Houston, they should be immediately referred to this page.

Montrose1100 Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 When did they start tearing up the roundabout? Some time during the week I suppose... I remember last weekend there were those giant concrete squares of drainage sewers. And there was a big hole at the beggining of Spring Break (the road infront of the Warwick Towers): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
