Statues

I am so fortunate to have friends like MaryBeth and Tommy, who will host me in their homes and show me the sites! Plus, I visited the home and studio of America's most famous sculptor.

A wonderfully organized and well-documented museum in the town of Walker was well worth a couple of hours of exploring before I headed out of town.

As I rolled into Dawson, Nebraska, a statue of the Virgin Mary in a park next to the highway caught my eye. With all day to drive and explore, I stopped to check it and the town.

While in Oklahoma City, I had to check out this massive monument. I'd heard about it and wanted to experience it as there are very few sculptures anywhere near its size.

After visiting the Homestead National Historic Park, I returned to Beatrice to check out the local museum and found myself face-to-face with another iron lung.

Marysville is an adorable little town, and I headed out to walk around and see what I could see. I always love finding small towns that have figured out how to make themselves relevant.

The need for work often brings me to libraries. What do you know? Mark Twain is sitting outside on a park bench enjoying the day!
