Road trip

Road trip

I took the family on a little road trip earlier this week to get out of the house.  We ended up in the same area that I was bear baiting and were I would eventually shoot my bear.  It was the first time I had been back there and it was fun to show Hubby where I had been.

When we stopped for lunch, the coolest painting was in the bathroom.  I know, I know but it was such a cool picture that I had to take a photo. 

And what were the odds that near my hunting area, in that specific restaurant and in the lady’s room, there would be this painting.  Pretty neat.
