California Bend

Here is a photo I took last Sunday of the Monongahela River (otherwise known as the “Mon River”) near California Pennsylvania.  I took a photo from this spot many years ago…maybe 6 years ago.  That time I took it from within a restaurant that looked out over this spot.  Now, that business is closed, so I captured the image with my drone.  That’s about the only way to get this perspective, due to the trees blocking the view, unless you break into the closed restaurant, which I wasn’t going to do.   Anyway, I hope you like the pic.

1, 2, 3….quick post tonight….here we go.   This beautiful bridge is in Washington County Pennsylvania.  It is unclear when this popular bridge was built…..let’s just say a very long time ago.  It originally crossed the south fork of Maple Creek near Ginger Hill.  It was moved to its current spot in Mingo Creek Park in 1977.  It is a Queenpost design bridge.  Washington County PA has over twenty of these historic covered bridges spread across the county.   All of them are cool in their own way.

Montenegro Tiny Chapel

While we were traveling, MJ and I came upon this tiny chapel in rural Montenegro.  She went on a guided tour of a museum while I photographed the exterior and some areas of the village.  That’s when I found this neat little church.

Arizona Desert

Today’s post is an aerial view looking straight down from a hot air balloon in the Arizona desert.   Our balloon ride was very early in the morning and we floated over this campsite.  What a peaceful ride in a beautiful part of the country.
