I live in Greenville OH. Its city park is really nice. Many events are held here. This year GOBA (Great Ohio Bide Adventure) will be staying overnight here. We are expecting 2000-3000 bicyclist to spend the night. Here is a photo of one of the 4 ponds in our city park
Edited to add: In the photo you can see a small replica of Ft. Greenville which is now known as Greenville OH. On 8/3/1795 the Treaty of Greenville was signed bringing to an end the Indian wars in the state of Ohio. The actual fort stood less than a mile from my house. On another note my brother lives on Treaty Line Rd which was the boundary for land that was given to the whites. Only problem is my brother lives on the north side of the road which still belonged to the Indians!

I live in Oregon City, Oregon near the confluence of the Willamette and Clackamas Rivers, and Willamette Falls, 2nd largest waterfall in USA. Lots of good water training spots! We have a fabulous paddling group that goes to huge variety of places; as soon as I get my driver's license we will go on every single trip. Orka loves to kayak!

Please, not a official entry.
Decatur, known as the Soybean Capital of the World. Not very picturess I know, but it is where we live. This picture shows a lot of Tate and Lyle's formally A.E. Stayleys plant. ADM has several huge facilities and the corporate offices here too with LOTS of steam and smoke coming off the plants. As my brother says, the smell is the smell of money. Also being a big agri-business town we are a big railroad town with a large rail yard and several smaller ones. In the picture is the yearly Norfolk Southern Railway's employee Christmas train.
