Tully Mars · 03-16-2009, 03:00 AM

I am between the IDL and Greenwich... So I'd say yes.

uncle phil · 03-16-2009, 03:14 AM

australia?

Tully Mars · 03-16-2009, 03:28 AM

uncle phil · 03-16-2009, 03:31 AM

east coast?

Tully Mars · 03-16-2009, 03:38 AM

No coast

BadNick · 03-16-2009, 03:41 AM

are you at Ayers Rock aka Uluru aka Inselberg Monolith?

Tully Mars · 03-16-2009, 03:50 AM

Well that was certainly quick.

Your up Nick.

BadNick · 03-16-2009, 04:04 AM

wow, cool place but that was a lucky guess. It made it easier since you weren't too close to one of "those lines". While I figure out where to go next, here's some pics for eyeball stimulation:

Uluru - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm leaving to go to work now so I won't be back for almost 2 hrs.

Tully Mars · 03-16-2009, 04:10 AM

I've been to Alice Springs but never made it out to Ayers Rock.

To be fair I was trying to pick a somewhat easy place to find since I've got another week of painting, pool repair/cleaning and moving in store. But honestly I figured it would take you guys at least a day to find me.

BadNick · 03-16-2009, 10:58 AM

OK, I was lost but now I'm found....well, after you find me, that is. Where in the world am I?

uncle phil · 03-16-2009, 11:35 AM

greenwich, england?

BadNick · 03-16-2009, 12:49 PM

Nope, not in England.

uncle phil · 03-16-2009, 01:04 PM

greenwich, connecticut?

BadNick · 03-16-2009, 05:26 PM

nope, not in any greenwich, though that makes me wonder how a spinach sandwich would taste...but since you're so enamored with that "g" word, I'll say that where I am is significant because of geologic uniqueness.

MacGuyver · 03-16-2009, 05:30 PM

Pound Gap in Jenkins, Kentucky.

BadNick · 03-16-2009, 05:38 PM

not that either, Mac. Isn't that road cut a man-made feature? Where I am is a natural feature...and not in the U.S.

MacGuyver · 03-16-2009, 08:01 PM

Not sure. Africa?

uncle phil · 03-17-2009, 02:26 AM

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 03:41 AM

not in Africa or the EH...I'm in the WH but not in the U.S., at a very interesting geologic feature.

Tully Mars · 03-17-2009, 04:04 AM

South of the US?

uncle phil · 03-17-2009, 04:05 AM

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 04:09 AM

yes south of the US and yes in NH...now that I think of it, Tul, I'm not far from you, maybe I can come over and bring some lunch < that's not a clue, I'm just saying

Tully Mars · 03-17-2009, 04:38 AM

Yeah bring three lunches my buddy Jorge's helping clean my pool system today. Spent a week without power even after paying the bill. Yesterday I found out if you climb up the pole with some duct tape to can hook up you own lights. Who knew?

Are you in Mexico?

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 04:47 AM

yes, in Mexico

uncle phil · 03-17-2009, 04:48 AM

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 05:01 AM

uncle phil · 03-17-2009, 05:05 AM

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 08:04 AM

uncle phil · 03-17-2009, 08:22 AM

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 08:25 AM

BadNick · 03-17-2009, 10:41 AM

Thanks for the link unc, but since I'm impressed by the pics, I'm posting some of those, too.

Good pics and description here: Crystal Cave of the Giants - Dream Cave

satellite map of area and a little guy standing on the giant crystals!:
