Oak Grove Cemetery, Brunswick, GA. I've loved historic cemeteries since I was a kid. I like to drive through at Mickey D's and take my breakfast to the old graveyard and sit and eat it there. You know, like totally normal people do, all the time. LOL
Looking Glass Falls, near Brevard, NC. On a recent mountain vacation, which unfortunately did not include any swimming this time, because I had bronchitis. I normally loves me some icy-cold mountain water in the summertime, though.
Clyde the kitten, aka "Queso", enjoying his first taste of outdoor freedom. Didn't take him long to climb a tree onto the roof.
Daughter Victoria came home from work, took off her server's apron, and threw some of her tip money at Clyde, just see how he'd react. He was all like, "Hey, what am I supposed to do with this?"

This week before the crowds.
That is a nice sized piece of Moon Rock, and from the first landing no less.
For comparison here is my photo of a Lunar Rock from the same mission as it was displayed at Expo 70 in Japan at the United States Pavilion there the year after the moon landing. It was the main attraction of the exhibition and I even caught a photo of Prince Charles coming to the U.S. Pavilion to see it.
(The reason my photo of Prince Charles is blurred is because I had my telephoto lens mounted on my camera assuming I would be some distance from the him. Then he walked right up to where I was standing at the entrance to the U.S. Pavilion to shake hands with us.)
As we continue to commemorate the Apollo 11 First Men on the Moon Mission, Just came across these added views. of the Apollo 11 Lunar Rock as it was exhibited at Expo 70 in Japan the next year after the first moon landing. Included was a slightly better print of my photo of Prince Charles visiting the United States Pavilion to see the moon rock.
FWIW, in total 12 men have stepped on the moon with Apollo 17 having been the last of 6 missions that reached the moon. Pictured below are photos from this week with views of the moon rock from one of those missions, Apollo 15, as displayed locally:

I was there in 2015. We stopped at Torrey Pines State Park along the way. Breathtaking views of the Pacific from the cliffs. One of the most beautiful places I’ve visited in this country.
You can just look at the size of the hole and tell that it would take a person whose hand size was one in a billion combined with the strength of one in ten thousand so it will never be done. It is a test for fools and great fun to watch.

Taken this evening (Friday eve) by my daughter as she was checking out the nearby sand dunes. When she turned around the moose was just yards distant. After slowly edging away she took the photo.
Here’s a few pictures of my summer fun in Florida last week. A very rare dollar I picked up while in the water at the beach.

"There was no one more dedicated to this country and more proud to serve his country than Ted Williams,'' Glenn said after Williams' death in 2002. "He may have [hit] .406 for the Red Sox, but he batted 1.000 as a United States Marine."

A few more from last night.

The girls night out: (In addition to their moose encounter)
My rocks are in. Sadly getting rocks in my house is the closest thing Ive done to doing something outdoors in almost a year since I went to Bushkill falls on shrooms last fall.
