Good grief!<br />It seems Allegheny isn't the only "funny" word out there.<br /><br />The real forsythia is beautiful, and the apple core sculpture made me laugh.

Though the road trip's primary purpose was for a family's loss, it was a great time to be with other members and a great opportunity to visit such places. Sculpture garden is interesting and the whole area is beautiful. Surely worth re-visiting.<br /><br />Maybe I'm just not clear about the piece of Berlin wall and the Red army.<br /><br />Oh by the way, seeing the crabs, I think I know what else I'm craving for now.psychelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13481182811314917401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-11636084682099444302015-04-21T12:56:59.946-04:002015-04-21T12:56:59.946-04:00O just lovely, a foretaste of my fall foliage road...O just lovely, a foretaste of my fall foliage road trip to the U.S. East. I'll devour not just the scenery but the lobsters! Your post reminds me indeed, I'd been to (or was it near to) Chesapeake Bay and had crabs there. These public art installations are quite something.

We did do a lot of site seeing in DC and Baltimore when we lived there. There's a lot to see. My sister visited every year and we always scheduled something for their visit. It really made us open our eyes to the wonderful places and history around us.

However, I also know Bob would have been as unhappy as Rick if the bike was with us! We grew up and raised our kids in PA and lived for awhile in Havre de Grace, MD on the Bay. That area is very scenic. Still snowing here... We may take the bikes and head farther west tomorrow, trying to get out of the snow.
