Crow point Indiana courthouse.
I was practicing social distancing today and I visited the Community Veterans Memorial in Munster Indiana. This interactive trail has sculptures from World War I, WW II, Vietnam War. The UH-1 Huey helicopter which was used as a transport and gunship in Vietnam. #alongthesouthshore
I shoot with different cameras sometimes. I almost always will have a cellphone shot is the same things. The camera’s on our phones are so advanced now. Then you can edit and make it anything. This week will just be shots taken around my house and neighborhood. This is a picture of the same cloud. The shape changed so fast. Do you know which picture was taken with my phone? I'll put the answer in the comments.
I try to live without regrets. Some times you have to make the leap into the unknown. I have not made a phone call or visited a place because I told myself I could do it next time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We have learned that there may not be the next time
The final photo I'm sharing on US Travel is of the Space Needle in Seattle. I fell in love with Seattle. The weather was perfect in the summer. I loved the long days of daylight. I considered moving there. I changed my mind when I heard about the high suicide rate in the winter. I think I need summer and winter times to avoid the worse if every city. 😉
Benmarl Winery is the oldest vineyard in America. The winery overlooks the historic Hudson River Valley in NY. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I didn't realize there were so many wine vineyards in upstate New York. I visited a few and breweries while I was in the Catskills. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do you like to visit wine vineyards when you travel?
We got up early one morning to beat the long lines of Holy Donut in Portland, Maine. What makes these donuts so unique is it is made with potatoes. I admit I thought it was weird, but it was delicious and worth getting up early. What is the weirdest ingredient you've tried in a donut?
I am a little late with today’s post. The next U.S. City is Memphis. I spent a lot of time in Memphis because of work. Each time I discovered something new. I always enjoyed going out on Beale Street. Have you been to Memphis?
Next in US travel. Wabash Indiana is the first city in the world with electricity. On March 31, 1880, Charles F. Brash began experimenting with the use of carbon arc lights to light up the town. He eventually placed Four 3,000 candle power lamps on the top of the Wabash County Courthouse, and it illuminated the town until September 1888. One of the original lamps can still be viewed in the courthouse today. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To read more about Wabash County, Indiana, see the link in the bio.
