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 :)

Day 117 ~ Items in the Garden


If you pass through this gate you will find yourself.....on the other side of the gate. Or, maybe you'll find a magic (light) mushroom.

Day 116 ~ Tulips, Tulips, Tulips


Wow, I have just never seen as many tulips in one place as I did on the grounds of this place where a conference I attended was held. They really are hard to miss and not appreciate.

Day 115 ~ On the Tarmack


While I have been on a plane smaller than the one I boarded on this day I have never been walked out directly to the tarmack to board. This is why I had to take a picture if not only for the purpose of showing my kids.

Day 114 ~ MMmmm...Ice Cream


My "baby" girl and my baby niece sharing an ice cream at Chuck E Cheese on a school holiday.
