Scenic Views - Scroll Saw Challenge

[Travis]

My son and I just got back from a week-long Boy Scout camp in Coeur d'Alene, ID.  It was such a beautiful lake with amazing scenery.  One of our fellow scouters extended their trip to Glacier National Park with their family.  They posted some great pictures, too.  This time of year always reminds me of family vacations, camping, fishing, and enjoying the great outdoors.  So, this month's challenge is about the great outdoors, scenic vistas, or appreciating the great things mother nature has provided us.  Post a picture of a project or pattern of what that means to you.  And be sure to tell us a little bit about it, or a memory you had with your family vacations.

I'll kick this one off.  Most folks I talk to always gush about beach vacations, cruises, sand and palm trees, Hawaii.....they can have em.  Send me to the mountains!  Forests, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, the peace and quiet of a shady trail with nothing but the sound of the wind to disturb the afternoon (and the occasional curse as my clumsy ass trips over a root).  My wife is of the same mind, although she enjoys the beaches more than I do.  Thus a Steve Good pattern, not quite finished yet (I'm juggling three or four projects at the time), but still....is mountains.  Is good.

I think it was 2 Summers ago I took my wife on a day trip to get out of the hot desert.  This is where we went, Mount Rainier in Washington.  Such a beautiful sight!  I see by the date on the picture it was 3 Summers ago.  Time flies!

We have a big boat (33ft cabin cruiser) that we have on Lake of the Woods, Ontario.  Love going to the various islands to anchor overnight, always a different view.  I have turned a few of these into puzzles.

This is an older one, but I have cut this into a very difficult puzzle before.  Printed it 11X14 and sold it in a quart canning jar and called it "A Quart of Peppers".

The other was shot the same day, but I have yet to puzzle it.

I went through a bit of a Japanese phase so did a few Mt Fuji projects.  Here is a black and grey one I did on the scroll saw.

Painted it with an airbrush.

[Scrappile]

How in the heck did did you do that??  I visited Japan  several years ago.  I could live there, I loved it and all it's beauty.
