Building 3 Art


This piece of art is on the front of Building 3 on the State Capitol Complex in Charleston, WV. This mosaic style piece includes a lady standing in the center of six scenes (which I assume represent different industries). Below the lady is the state motto, Mountani Semper Liberi which means Mountaineers are Always Free.

The WV Veterans Memorial is located on the WV Capitol Complex.

Don't Mess With A Lad in Plaid




I had the opportunity once again to visit the Virginia Scottish Games this year. They were located in The Great Meadow in The Plains, Virginia about 45 minutes from D.C. This is a very unique festival that anyone can attend with paid admission. They have multiple vendors setup with clothing, gifts and food.


Smithsonian National Zoo

I took this photo of a tiger on display at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, D.C. during Labor Day weekend 2009.

Fresh Step Toilet

We spotted this homemade toilet while leaving the Jimmy Buffet concert at the Nissan Pavilion over Labor Day weekend. I know it's gross, but it makes for a good laugh.
