The Great Salt Lake: Bogusness Rebuffed
[NTS: Have to set the Post Status to "Publish" for the world to see your entries, dumbass! *^_^*]
A friend of mine spotted my shoddy panorama of the Great Salt Lake and commented that not only was it not great, but that he doubted that it was even a picture of the Great Salt Lake at all. Well birdies to you, old chum: one from the left hand the other from the right. ;) It's the Great Salt Lake alright. He did however have the "decency" to send along his own snaps of the GSL (tired of typing Great Salt Lake -- doh! typed it again!) for me to compare to my "counterfeit" GSL pic.
He credits his location as a rest stop on 80 West. Mine was snapped out on 80 West as well, but at a marina near a place called the Saltair, an abandoned tourist trap as best as I can divine. Had I only known that such a picturesque vista awaited me some 1-10 miles further down the highway, I would... probably have turned around and headed back to the hotel, because I had already driven too damn far in the pouring rain to capture my washed-up, panoramic gem! :P Bugger off! I'm done.

So you deny your pictures were taken at a rest stop on 80 West? :P
