On my recent trip to SC we rode through Charlotte on 85 (I guess?) around 9:30. People let me say this, as a semi traveler (I don't travel a lot) that sky line at night is gorgeous.

Seeing all those big building lit up at night with all sorts of lights and various floors lit up from either people working late or someone leaving their office light on makes the skyline glow above all the traffic, cars, and the moon. It makes you sit back and think "Wow what a wonderful place." I mean granted I was going about 80, that skyline from the back seat of a suburban just ...... wow.

Thats all I have to say.

It's nice at Mt. Hood halfway up the mountain looking down over Gods country. Now THAT is a view!

No but it's close to it. I'm telling you what man, the skyline is beautiful from whatever view you can get.
