A different view of the housing “crisis”
ByDerekHere’s a unique way of looking at housing costs data. Take the average housing prices in the U.S. since 1890, adjust for inflation, then plot it on a rollercoaster. Pay particular attention to 1997 onward. via Consumerism Commentary

Düsseldorf
ByDerekCiao Italia! We have finally moved on to Germany! Düsseldorf was our only stop, and my photos are all from the Altstadt (old city). While there wasn’t snow, it was cold along the Rhine, yet there were still a ton of people walking around and, of course, drinking Altbier. But more on that later. Here’s…

Camping cut short
ByDerekWe cut our camping trip down to the Allegheny National Forest short as we got drenched by rain again. That’s two camping trips this year, two rain-soaked adventures. Kinda sucks because it rained a grand total of what… three times this summer? With Amanda starting her new job on Monday, we didn’t want to sit…

I never did find out if they were community property or individually owned, but I couldn’t imagine knowing how to tell mine from the others, had I owned one.

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
