God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.

Frisco. Tis a glorious place.
New Orleans (pre Katrina)- Special place for me and the Mrs.
Omaha. I actually miss living in the land of Big Red sometimes.

San Fran and 'Nawlins for me as well.

Columbia, MO, my college town.  Damn I miss that place.

The house at the beach we stayed in three weeks ago.  Already miss that.

The loft/attic me and my sister slept in when we were kids.

Wow, too many to list, this has got me thinking...
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

alabama: brad, my dad, grandparents, sister, nephews, nieces...
i miss the way the pine trees smell after it rains. i miss going to a restaurant and asking for "tea" and getting a glass of SWEET tea. i miss not having to take a week off work to be able to visit my family. i miss football saturdays with my granddad.

my old house on chestnut street--just not my roommate

my house on park street--the first place that was ever mine (i had never felt so free)

spring at drakes creek

our farmhouse (more specifically, winter at the farmhouse)

i'm glad that louisville has a lot of trees, parks, and greenery, but I miss the woods.

I hear you, man - growing up in Indiana - there's a lot of country round there - cornfields as far as the eye can see - never really appreciated them growing up , but that's probably the biggest thing I miss from home - being able to get away.

The gf & I went to the Red River Gorge over the weekend - we climbed up some boulders to chill and smoke for minute - In the 20 minutes we sat there, there wasn't any time that someone wasn't walking by.

I like getting away from all the people & cars & stuff & BS of civilization, not bring it to the woods with me

Taterbug

Devils lake State Park Wisconsin,  It's only 3 hours away from were I live but it feels like the other side of world. The colors are probably magnificent right now.

Count me in as another person missing San Francisco. I've only been there once, but I had such a great time that I want to go back. My sister and I are trying to plan something, money and time permitting.

a little place called the state of care-free.

Currently, I most often miss having a tranquil state of mind (which for me is a place).

I have missed this forum, but as of late, have had remarkably little to say so I haven't been hanging out.

Outside of my head, I miss the coasts of Washington and Oregon, especially during the winter storms.

I miss my grandmother's house where, when she was still alive, I'd help her make soup with homemade noodles and watch shooting stars at night while she told me stories.  

For those who feel that they hold psychic claims on a particular landscape, check out this amazing book: Landscape and Memory by Simon Schama.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some don't have film.
