Visiting Ohio!

Posted by Shawn

Oops! I almost forgot Ohio in the mix of all the states Penguin visited on our trip. I always seem to remember other states as I cross the lines to go into them but always forget Ohio when coming back home… lol

At any rate during their celebration of 200 years as a state, the state of Ohio painted bicentennial murals on barns throughout the state - one barn per county. On our trip to Kentucky, we passed the barn in Ross County which was also the county that hosted the first state capitol of Ohio.

So here is Penguin with the Ross County Ohio Bicentennial barn! I took this photo on May 11, 2008.

Visiting West Virginia!

Posted by Shawn

Well we visited West Virgina on June 19th but when Penguin shrieked with joy and pointed to the West Virginia sign, Mark wouldn’t stop the car. He simply said, “You don’t wanna stop here…” in a Deliverance warning kinda way.. So we ended up going to Williamson WV on the 21st and I got a picture of Penguin with their Welcome sign!

Visiting Virginia!

While out and about with Mark and Barb, we also came by this Welcome to Virginia sign. Unfortunately it was on a curve and we passed it a couple of times before coming up with a game plan on how to get Penguin photographed with it. After deciding that they would drop me and Penguin out and then come back to pick us up, we discovered that there was enough of a berm on the side of the road for them to pull off and let us out! I took this photo of Penguin on June 19, 2008!

Visiting Kentucky!

Posted by Shawn

Hi everyone! I recently went to Kentucky with Penguin. While I wasn’t doing family stuff, we got the chance to explore the area a bit. We were busy arguing about who should drive when we initially crossed into the state so the pictures of Penguin with that Kentucky sign were kinda blurry. Luckily Pike county, the county we were staying in, is a border county with Virginia and West Virginia. Thanks to Mark and Barb (my cousin and his girlfriend), I was able to get a picture of Penguin with a local Welcome to Kentucky sign. I took this picture on June 19, 2008.

Traveling with Penguin…

Posted by Shawn

So far this has been a crazy year and I have been traveling where I haven’t had accessed to the internet. Yeah, I know, unthinkable! Think of the withdrawal after a month and half with no connectivity!

Luckily a good friend of mine (or is it a Goode friend? :p) named Jen Goode sent me a buddy to hang out with me during these journeys. She said he loves to travel and see new places. I figured cool, a travel buddy may keep me occupied enough to where the time passes fast enough that I don’t miss the internet as much. Boy, was I right about being kept occupied!

So after a bit of a wait, the UPS guy shows up at my door with a little box. In getting inside the house, I tear into the box to find a couple books that Jen had offered me. I take out the books and there sits Penguin with his face covered in chocolate smiling up at me innocently. I look closer inside the box and I find the brownie wrapper of the brownie Jen had sent me.. (Jen, next time you ship Penguin with brownies, you might wanna send two!)

At any rate, now that Penguin is here we have a lot of adventures planned. I have a lot of pictures of me and Penguin from my recent trip to Kentucky where we went to visit an uncle in the hospital with cancer. No, Penguin didn’t visit the hospital, but we did take the opportunity to visit a few other places while down in the area.

With the adventures we have had and the adventures we have planned, I decided to add a new category to the site here specifically for cataloging our adventures. (Don’t be surprised to see posts from Penguin… I mean I’ve already caught him playing World of Warcraft late at night on my computer so its hard to tell where he ventures to on the internet!)
