Ailsa’s travel theme challenge this week is Connections. Here are some of mine:
1. Locking eyes with an osprey at the Dyke Marsh Wildlife Preserve

“Hello”
2. Reliving the past at George Washington’s Mount Vernon

The First Virginia Regiment of the Continental Line prepares for the military drill on the Bowling Green on the Fourth of July
3. Listening to sheep cry out to each other in the fog near Rijsterbos

Getting pleasantly lost
4. Watching for our destination on the Grand Canyon Railway
5. Getting lost in a familiar painting in “that astonishing Chicago”

Seurat’s A Sunday on La Grande Jatte (1884)
