1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    Hiking

    the mountain ridge
    the rocky trail biting my bare feet
    the sun, the breeze, the view
    the long hard trek that took me away
    and brought me home at last

    she said I looked like a hangover
    I said I felt like a summer sunset

    Nice, I like the hangover/sunset lines, so true. Both right and yet noth so different.

    Reminds me of a card I wrote to put with flowers:

    "I'd climb a mountain just to see the view, made ever-more beautiful by been there with you"

    The mountain always brings a serene Idea, I liked the simple images. I work the same way, bring the reader to your work the places that you truly see. Well done.
