The Post You've Been Waiting For
I'm giggling.
It's time for ... vacation photos! Thud.
I'll keep it short. And there's a reason for that. I have a new camera.
As much as I like to think of myself as a decent to good photographer, in my heart I know it isn't so. Most of my photos came out looking worse that what the cat would take. Any cat.
Where did we go? We drove approximately 1800 miles from San Antonio, Texas to Cape May, New Jersey. With a few stops in between. And then we drove approximately 1800 miles back home. With more stops.
The most breathtaking site? The Shenandoah River. Photos? Nope. Too enthralled to pull out the camera. Instead, I have these.
Near Roanoke, Virginia

Cape May is known for quaint shops and gobs of stunning Victorian Houses. Our hotel was quirky and charming. Do I have photos? Not. A. One. I have these.
On the way home, we stopped in Baltimore.
Does anyone recognize any of these places?
Oh...if you wondering why we drove. For days. This old post written before I had any commenters explains it.

Driving trips are fun. Somehow you experience more.
My sis and I drove across the country once. Was a great adventure. We felt like Thelma and Louise.

The photo with the cat and the flowers, as well as the one with the lighthouse caught my eyes.
