Reschke, your picture is of Warstein, Germany... what's the brewery's slogan?

The slogan is..."Eine Königin unter den Bieren" which translates into English as "A Queen among the Beers"

Nice find there what gave it away?

Raptor what about a hint like which ocean or body of water.

Hey!  Nobody got mine yet!  Too hard for y'all? :D
I got it!, and I posted the large blob that happens to be the volcano erupting now lol, easy enough :P

Oh and did anyone look in the Key's? Can't find it in there but I think it might be somewhere around there, just looking at the water.

I spent the day looking in the north pacific - no luck.
What part of that was supposed to make it an easy one?

Do you want Klouklubed or Imelchole Village?

Ok - I see what Bosco was talking about.  Actually I didn't want either one since you can't see them in my pic.  I was looking for the name of the island:

Peleliu

Yep spent about 2.5 hours checking all the Southeastern and Southern US coastal areas for islands shaped like that. Then went to Pacific and homed in on water depths for my looks...so far I am drawing a blank on this latest posting...still not a clue from Raptor either.

Ooo, found it first try.  Outer banks, NC.  35 14 30, 75 33 55

Beautiful area of the NE US.  I'll provide further hints if needed.       (Pardon the paint job on bottom.  Had to destroy that pesky copyright line. :) )

I am sorry, I could have sworn I logged on earlier today and someone posted the correct answer, looks like they changed their mind. Druski got it. Cape Hatteras in the outer Banks.

Should be easy enough to find without a hint.  Nothing important, just thought the pic was cool.

Although, there is a Birch island in the middle of the lake.  Didn't realize how many Birch islands there really were.

Yea, the other one is much further north in Maine.  Apparently it's a common name in those parts.   :lol  I was lookin for the name of the "pond" (lake) or the nearby town.
