Frank, has the uploading problem been corrected? I had tried to upload some photos a couple months ago but kept getting error messages. I had posted about the problem but didn't know if it got fixed because I didn't get any PM or email.

As far as I know it is fixed but Red is still having trouble.

Here is one I just uploaded on our Photo Server so it is working

The Cotswolds in the west of England is a very popular area with foreign visitors, particularly Americans. With the beautiful stone buildings and the green hills it's easy to understand why.
The village of Bibury is one of the most visited villages in the area.

It almost looks unreal or like a fairy tale. I love beautiful pictures and can look at them for hours. I know it is crazy but I spend a lot of time in Smugmug or other galleries too but my famorite is still this one here. It is color and composition for me but also the beautiful places we can visit. Every photo taken by this man is beautiful and I wished I could visit many more National Parks.

Keith, are these homes warm and comfortable today? They must be completely refurbished inside, I hope.

Hopefully they have been refurbished as they were built in 1380 so many of the original fittings are probably a bit past their sell-by date Putting that in context - built 112 years before Columbus stumbled across America!!

IRELAND- Gap of Dunloe near Killarney, County Kerry

Taking a Jaunting Car thru the Gap of Dunloe - breathtaking scenery - Gram and Popa

....and where were you staying?

Keith, Robert and Frank - were you staying at a TS when you took those pictures???
(I am afraid Keith LIVES where his photo was taken! )
Maybe Lawren knows the TS in the Cotswold area?

Emmy, I am going to check your link when I get home this evening.

Timeshare up I-5 above Seattle would be within Do-&-See range of Vancouver, Mt Baker, Seattle, Mt Rainier and even (by ferry from Whidbey Island) the Olympic Peninsula. I'd have to reseach to find TS.

We made use of the Navy Lodge at Marysville as I was to attend a reunion and the dedication of the pictured memorial.

It is so good to see you posting, Emmy. God bless you.

Timeshares north of Seattle near I-5 would be in the Blaine area (Worldmark Birch Bay or Jacob's Landing) or Glacier (Snowater).

Right now the ferry to the Olmpic Peninsula from Whidbey Island is passenger only, and will probably remain that way for a couple more years. (The entire fleet of autoferries capable of making that run have been permanently removed from servie due to excessive hull corrosion, and auto service can't be restored until new ones are built and commissioned.)

Great information.
I'm working on Chapter Four. Hope to finish it this snowy week end. I hint on many of the area Do & See. Some pictures have already been placed on Picasa.

While at the Squadron Reunion, I observed Skagit Valley Casino Resort.
It is no timeshare. It’s out a bit, at Bow, but pretty convenient for Do & See of the area. Click around this sight to see how impressive the place..

While on that site click Skaget Ridge Hotel at the top of the page for more pix and info.

I know Stouts Hill is not far from many of the very charming Cotswold villages. We visited quite a few.

South Mountain Sunset - Phoenix

[GrayFal Silver Contributor and supermoderator Find all posts View Profile Close GrayFal]

This is the view from the Marriott Frenchmens Reef Resort in St Thomas - looking toward Charlotte Amalie Harbor - with the new Frenchmens Cove Marriott TS on the right - I took this in January 2006, I am going to recreate this photo in a few weeks - the resort is far from 'built out' but it will be fun to compare the difference!
The white building on the right is part of the hotel - there was NO actual timeshare building on the site - just the prep work.
They were suppose to open for Christmas 2006 but instead opened Presidents Week 2007.

We were staying a few miles down the road at Wyndham BlueBeard's BeachClub

Here is the January 2008 photo. The villas are the colorful buildings on the far right....beautifully appointed but for me, staying there would mean hanging out at that GORGEOUS hotel with the magnificent views.

Prices - non-lock-off
2BR Platinum 35K MFs in the mid $900 with seperate tax bill $250 (estimate)
2BR Gold 26K tax $200
2BR Silver 20K tax $150

Looking to Mt Baker from Deception Pass Bridge.

While touring north of Seattle, we rested at Navy Lodge, Marysville.
