Open full image in new tabDescription
Taken at the Museum of Appalachia I hope you enjoy. I am leaving for home (California) on Thursday to visit my family and to see my Dad, it is his birthday on Friday and I am going to surprise him, he doesn’t know I am coming. I hope to try to get a few photos while I am there, the town I am from is a beautiful area and is the home of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and it sets high up on a hill and overlooks the valley it is stunning, also quite a few movies and series have been filmed there, including the series Little House on the Prairie and the Mini series the Thorn Birds, and I do know of a old windmill that use to sit out in a field hopefully it is still there. But most of my time will be spent with my parents my dads health has not been good the last few years, and so spending time with him right now is my first priority. Not sure if I will download anything before I leave so I wish you all well, and I promise to catch up when I return.
Thank you to all those that encouraged me about the series of the four seasons I hope to capture.
