Day 124 ~ Bird Watching


Again out the kitchen window and taken from "the white chair". I spied a male cardinal just hanging out on the vines. Never could get a picture of him and the female sharing seed on out the other kitchen window.

Day 123 ~ Awesome french toast


French toast might not be a typical comfort food but when its made with love, by your grandfather, using grandma's homemad bread who can say no? YUM!

Day 122 ~ On the swing


Many say that I am the "little" version of my grandmother. I'm not sure I hold up to the standard she sets but I do love her, spending time with her, and making her smile. This swing is a common spot for pictures at any family gathering. Today it was just us two and a camera with a remote setting. :)

Day 121 ~ Mowing


This is a favorite spot in my grandmothers kitchen. Its the view out the window from "the white chair". Most sit here and watch the birds but today you can see my grandpa on his tracker. Mowing the lawn. For him its a completely different chore than it is at our house.

Day 120 ~ The Alamo in West Virginia?


Who would have ever guessed I'd find a ... a... house? in Wheeling, West Virginia that resembled the Alamo? Very odd. Very out of place but I guess I might have had to capture some other surrounding houses to give you an idea of just how out of plac eit was ... oh well.

Day 119 ~ Why did the Turtle cross the road?


To cause a big commotion. I've never seen this particular type of turtle until I was driving around the mountain around our conference center. By the time we had turned around to capture his picture another vehicle had also stopped to protect him until they could find a way to get him out of the road. (seems he snapped at them if they tried to pick him up and move him)

Day 118 ~ Over the river...


...by way of a cable bridge. I'd never been across a bridge quite like this. I wish the picture showed the "road" part better. It made a very interesting noise as we crossed. (too bad it was raining and the pic had to be taken while driving :)
