Berkeley Springs Random-osity


The Good: This colorful mural in Berkeley Springs is completed. It has been a while since I saw it under construction

Monday Murals.
The Random: Nearby Cacapon Resort State Park offers a variety of things to enjoy.


Some of the log structures date back to the CCC days. I remember they were there when I was a child.
Mosaic Monday.
The Fun: These folks were enjoying some time on the main lake.

A note about the name Cacapon: It is a river in West Virginia that takes its name from a Native American word said to mean "medicine waters."  The town of Berkeley Springs is known for its warm springs and mineral water.

See last summer's post on Cacapon Overlook

  7. I can see your mosaic gracing a brochure about the park. The log buildings look like they could last for almost eternity, if not. CCC built trails, a dam, and other things in the Pinnacles National Park that's in our county. Creating a similar federal and/or state CCC programs might be a good idea for now.

  10. I guess the CCC was very much involved in your area. I saw some documentation about their role in building the road and structures in Shenandoah NP. A very interesting history.

  11. Linda - I was in town today, and with a few spare minutes on my hands, I sat by the river. The water looked so refreshing; the ducks were certainly enjoying it. I enjoyed your summer photos - we should continue to enjoy it while we can! Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday!

  12. I was completely taken by the fact you were NOT the last person to post this week (grin), that I nearly missed the birds, the bear, and the flag because I was focusing on those feathers. SO much to see in this mural, Linda.

    Like everyone, that deer is beautiful.

  14. I love the mosaic! Wish I was somewhere like that on vacation! I shouldn't complain because I love living here but we are all ready to get away to somewhere different! Enjoy your week!
