2 Attachment(s) Gorgeous castles!!! Lets see, Im from NH. We are famous for our granite and also for the old man of the moutain. One of the moutains had this rock formation for years and years and years that was shaped just like a face. They called it the Old man in the moutain. Unfortunately it fell a couple years ago :( very sad. The state had the image on everything, from highway signs, license plates, etc... Here is a before pic and an after pic, I guess they are trying to figure out how to rebuild something similiar to it. |
