Vacation Update
I have more vacation pictures! I know, I know, you thought we were all done with that. But when Deb mentioned that she was about to head out on vacation to the Black Hills, I remembered I still had a few left… These pictures are from my drive home on I-90 and are all “hold camera and click while continuing to watch the road” shots.
I’d forgotten that it was foggy when I started driving home.
Really, I have no idea what this was all about.
There were some dramatic clouds. Hmm, do you think that one in the center is The Grim?! Must not’ve been, since I made it home safely.
Not a lot of topography along I-90 in South Dakota, so it quickly became photo worthy. I couldn’t have centered that sign better if I’d been trying.
The sun eventually did come out, revealing yet more mysteries along the highway.

We hear you Chaos! Our Mom is going away next weekend for 5 whole days!!! AND – you know what else? She’s going to be spending it with a DOG.
She is going to. so. PAY.
Atticus, Mae and Gandalf
(Mom says HI! to your Mom.)
Rain…sigh.
Atta boy! It’s about time that you commented on the whole “vacation” thing.
I love those little oddities that are scattered along highways. My aunt and uncle live up in the sticks and when we go up there I always watch for weird things, and there’s always at least one new weird thing.
It is so weird how these dinosaurs pop up everywhere along the highways!
Dinosaurs? What the?!
Poor abused Chaos.
Hey did you somehow miss the man walkig a dinosaur on a leash? That is my favorite sculpture along I-90.
Chris- Oooh- a rare Brontosaurus sighting- wow!
Imagine the size of the litter box you’d need for that, Chaos!
I find highway art appealing. And the more bizarre the better. Then again, I don’t have to live with the oddities.
I am glad it was not the grim! Hope all is well, the foggy SD pictures are interesting. Perfect for today.
My goodness! Everyone is having blogiversarries! Congrats to all. Thanks for the pingback Chris. I am sitting back and watching it grow. I’m so excited.
*wipes drool from chin* Wha? What? Where am I? Hmm? Vacation? No, what are you talking about, I could never go on vacation…that would mean my poor little kitties would be home alone…wait a second…I don’t have kitties.
Yep – I saw all those things too. We tried to convince Kate that the dinosaur was real – no dice!!
Oh, the giant bull–I’ve seen that. And I love the dinosaur!
Obviously I need to get out more. I never see dinosaurs when we’re driving around. 😉
Those are in South Dakota? I recently read an article in Smithsonian about a guy who is building giant sculptures along a highway to generate visitors and tourism dollars for his small town. Off to google…..
Too funny. I’ve never seen a dino when on vacation either…what did you have to drink?
lolol
And Chaos – OH my…no I’ll never go away and leave my kitties again – Huh?? Wha??? What am I thinking? I have to go away..in two weeks. Bad Chaos…trying to hypnotize helpless blog readers….
(((hugs)))
With the wide open spaces of SD, I guess making roadside sculptures makes sense. They are pretty cool.
Chaos is looking very jaguar like in today’s photo. However, he is not sounding very brave.
Chaos – don’t you know we are all under your spell already? 😉
Good Old I-90 nothing but oddities and flat, flat, flat land…..
Wow I can see that seeing the Brontosaurus made Chaos’ pupils really shrink. Must have freaked him out pretty good eh?
I think we saw that dinosaur way back when…
Uh… good luck with that, Chaos.
Wow, there are a lot of contests today!
Roadside dinosaurs will always make me think of that Pee Wee movie. *Shudder* And WHY doesn’t Florida have anything cool along the road like that? All we have is palm trees. Pfft. Stupid trees.
You’ve got both of us stumped as to what the yellow thing with the blue ‘flowers’ on top is.. did you find out?
Chaos suchh a sweet pretty picture in the sunlight 😉
I guess I need to go to South Dakota!
oh no, now I’m so sleepy i don’t know if I’ll be able to drive
That is exactly how Mel feels right now.
Nice moving-car photos, even if they do mean abandoning the small furry ones.
I don’t see a grim. I see more of a platypus. Wonder what that means…
So…are you drying out yet? I hear your rain waters are receding!
I think I must have been concentrating on my knitting A Little Too Much on I-90. I missed the horned beastie and the blue and yellow whatever.
So many blogiversaries!!
I wonder if that dinosaur is marking a fossil spot?
Chaos has a very hypnotic stare…
I finally got around to finding a link for the man walking a dinosaur on I-90. This is my favorite.
