Travel the USA

After the country re-opened after Covid-19, we are
"On the Road Again."
Please enjoy the 'armchair travels' and feel free to make comments.

In September of 2019, we made the 'epic' trip to the east coast for the first birthday of our grandson Evan.
Since Evan's birthday is in September, we decided to join a 29 day RV Caravan for the New England fall color. The tour starts in Maine and ends in Niagara Falls. All told, we did about 12,000 miles with the new truck and trailer.

MARBLE/marble

 

Since we had finished our work, we enjoyed being a tourist!
The Marble Gallery has some magnificent carvings
This one is $125,000
(nice addition to anyones yard!

Perhaps a smaller one for $4500.

Perhaps the entrance to your estate?




The local shop had these interesting things.
This stone is Honeycomb Calcite from Hannah, Utah
We were told that the sculptors love to work with this one.

Love this flower, don't know the name, but reminds me of the Columbine.


The annual Marble Symposium - gathers many artists learning to carve the magnificent marble, and spectators are free to wander through the 'open air' workspace.  

This artist is working with the Honeycomb Calcite
-yes, he loves working with it.

I was surprised at the variety of stones.
Even Jade??

Hmmm--




Creativity in action.


Progress toward the $125,000 mark?

All in all an interesting and enjoyable day.
