SkyWatch Friday: Part Two of my looking up while mailing a letter


In my wordless post below, I used a shot I took where I mailed a letter and then leaned out of the window and looked straight up. I took a whole series of shots and thought I'd use another one for this week's skywatch.

To visit skies across the world, please go to the home of SkyWatch Friday.

That's My World Tuesday: NC Museum of History


On the left side of the screen is the NC Museum of History. It is located on Bicentennial Plaza in Raleigh, NC across the walkway from the NC Museum of Science which is on the right hand side of the screen. I featured the science museum in last week's My World post. These shots were taken at the end of the summer which is why the trees are leafed out. This time of year they are all bare. The dome with the flag is the NC Capitol Building which is across the street from the museums.

The shot above shows the front door of the history museum. The museum has programs for children, permanent and temporary exhibits for all ages. A few of the current exhibits include: Everyday Artistry (featuring quilts, tools and other objects from rural NC); A Thousand Words: Photographs by Vietnam Veterans (taken by NC veterans); Bearing Witness: Civil Rights Photographs of Alexander Rivera (taken by a NC native during the civil rights era); Community and Culture: North Carolina Indians Past and Present. Those are just a few of the exhibits that caught my eye on the current exhibit list. I haven't been inside the museum in a number of years so I will have to go check out some of the newer exhibits soon.

To visit other parts of the world, please go to That's My World Tuesday.

Monochrome Monday: I'd love to fixer up



This house in Downtown Durham, NC seems to call out for a little love. That's not to say that my house doesn't need some major repairs but my house isn't as interesting to me as this old one. To find other participants, please visit the home of Monochrome Monday.
