How long have you had your spread? From the pictures that you have shared it looks like life is good. ---

Come-on Friends, post your beautiful pictures. If I can find them, they are in boxes in my cellar, but I have wonderful photos of the places I called home during my decades at sea. ---

Well, some folks said that I lived here, but not really. I did go back to my apartment every once and a while to change. The Reef, Big Lake, Lousiana.

One is taken onboard as we passed close to where my appartment lies, the second is from my appartment. One is dawn the other is dusk, nice view? Living in norway, its hard to get a picture with green in it at this time of the year 😛 [ATTACH]3322[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]3323[/ATTACH] ---

Here is the gentle stream that ran in front of my old house in suburbia, uh, I mean the road in front. During Hurricane Chantal, the water got as high as the tree just right of center in the photo. I was out on a ship in the Freeport Lightering area, though. The ex didn’t take it well. . . .

I enjoyed Norway immensely. There was a Cadillac club (I think) in town and they met in a public square. It’s expensive to live there though, isn’t it? I still have some of my kroner from those days. All I could afford was a couple of small souvenirs and a meal or two. And blew the rest staying in a bed and breakfast for one evening. Hope to get back there some day! Maybe even have a gCaptain meetup. I’ll buy a round…🙂 [Next page](https://forum.gcaptain.com/t/where-do-you-live/10135.md?page=2)
