Nostalgia Random-osity


The Good: Here I'm looking back a few weeks to when we were in Virginia Beach. These murals honor members of the armed services. Unfortunately they are partially blocked by utility poles.

Here's a closer view of one. For more murals, check out the linkup at Oakland Daily Photo.

The Random: These re-enactors added some color to the anniversary of the Battle of Cool Spring.

I made a collage using Canva. It was my first time trying it and I struggled a little.

The Fun: Young Alex really enjoys dressing up in Civil War costumes. He is the son of Professor Noyalas.

  7. The mural is just fantastic. I've never seen a reenactment but the seem to be fun. The little guy is adorable.
    FYI: I use photoscape (photoscape.org) for mosaics. I think it's pretty easy.
