Note to elf...

So, as we careen from crisis to [manufactured] crisis, pondering the effects of ACA/Obamacare, Duck Dynasty, and debit cards, it's natural to reflect and ask oneself¹: Where in the world are there fewer idiots?

This being my train of thought - with most of the cars on the tracks - I was reading an online article about Iceland.  With a total population of 320,000 (less than half of Fort Worth's), beautiful views, and a population density 1/13 of Texas', maybe there'd be less freeway traffic, junk on the TV, and more time to read.

I predict good Caribou/Reindeer hunting here.

Little House on/of the Prairie

Aurora, not in Texas or Colorado.

An ice cave to keep your beer cold.

E.T. - phone home. 

Maybe the elves, or Sasquatch, live here.

Did Newbury ever see this?

This looks like it could've been taken near Wizard Wells.

I don't know if all Icelandic women are beautiful - and yeah, I'd be looking for one more, um, age appropriate for me...

Be sure to tune in to my next travelogue - destination Bolivia.

This is your best post ever! Beautiful pics, no dead rock bands and I even understood most of the references. Let's move there.

Not so fast there, Sundance. If I go to Iceland, it will be with someone who looks more like the next to last picture than you.

But we can go to Bolivia - it'll be fun!

I was gonna post a pic of the Icelandic caribou/reindeer hunting opportunities but I feared Dew would want to tag along.

If I were a reindeer, and heard his footsteps, this is what I'd be doing...

I didn't mean we would go "together" just at the same time. And the safest place that reindeer could be is in front of Dew's gun.

Well, if Dew had a gun, then the Reindeer has nothing to fear. I was just concerned that with that pose (per the link), it would put Dew into a romantical mood.

Then the ungulate might wish to be shot - or make tracks like the second link...
