The worst possible place to build a lighthouse

Ruobhe · 10-04-2002, 01:05 PM

it looks like a small personal chapel or something like that.

This is another object of interest near where I live. Here is from an article:

Nacoochee Indian Mound

At the intersection of Hwy. 75 and Hwy. 17, the Nacoochee Indian Mound, was the center of the ancient Cherokee town of Gauxule, visited by DeSoto in 1540 in his search for gold. On this ceremonial mound, 190' long, 150' wide, and 20' high, stood the Town House where a sacred fire burned unceasingly. Ceremonial dances were performed in and around the Town House. Residents of the town lived on the flat land surrounding the mound. The findings of Heye Foundation archaeologists who explored the mound in 1915 indicate the advanced cultural development of the builders.

World record for the largest ever sand-castle

Oh well, guess no one could guess (I'm still wondering and I found the pic). It is apparently just towers someone built in Casa Mila, Barcelona, Spain. Casa Mila was so heaping full of strange pics that I wish I could post them all.

Here is a larger and clearer photo of the one above:

I'm betting some redwood forest from california. I think I saw some picture of a tunnel drilled through one of the trees so people could drive through it.

Some wise guys chopped down a million year old tree for kicks, and this picture has been sent to all world leaders along with a note reading "Ha ha ha"

I would have to go with the Red wood forest.

The Vorpal Tribble · 10-08-2002, 12:56 AM

Yup, correct! It is in the Sequioa forest of California. That tree was turned into a tunnel but it started to rot after a few years and was deemed unsafe.

THAT'S the worst possible place to build a lighthouse.

The Vorpal Tribble · 10-09-2002, 02:28 AM

This is a retreat in South Carolina. If you look closely you can see that the top is actually a house. Was built without phones or anything so that anyone there would be in peaceful isolation.

I think it has something to do with huge ammounts of butterflies covering the trunk of a tree... Is I right?

AnnOnimous · 10-09-2002, 09:58 AM

Monarch butterfly migration. Every year millions of the little buggers fly down to Mexico to work on their tans and drink margaritas.

CERN, the inside of a particle collider?

In side a power plant?

Those are good guesses, but actually, it is the tunnel leading to the Lost Sea in Tennessee. It is a very, very large lake underground where there are boat tours with glass bottoms to see the eyeless catfish that swim there. This tunnel is like a quarter mile long to get there, but worth the walk.

Few will understand this, but that picture is of the only practitioner of botany-philia...

Vagrant · 10-11-2002, 09:59 PM

It's where they accidentally spread Miracle-Grow instead of some bug killer. It seems forest-like so maybe it's South America? (Botanyphilia..? A crysanthemum hooker maybe?)
