Outside sculptures on the Church

We enjoyed our stay with family who showered us with Norwegian hospitality and gave directions on how we could navigate the city on our own to explore the unique and awesome culture of the city.

Canon on display

We found new and old within the city center. Our highlights were visiting the Church and viewing the many sculptures that were spread out within the city, especially around the Nidaros Cathedral. The Archbishop's Residence was amazing and colorful. So much history to cram into a short stay but we did the best we could.

Window in the courtyard area

The pictures here were captured inside the courtyard area and really caught my eye because of the beauty that surrounded the building. To me the city truly reflected an artistic flair in the many historical sites, culture and food!

In Search of the Killough Massacre

Killough Monument The winding black top country road shaded with huge east Texas pine trees protected us from the hot July sun as it pried its way through the branches. As descendants of the Killough Klan living in a distant state, my husband and children had never seen the family monument dedicated to one of the greatest tragedies in East Texas history. A massacre and tales of conspiracy are still keeping us guessing to this day of what really took place that set this tragedy into motion. This was how legends are started so we wanted to uncover the truth. Is it fact or fiction or could it be both? Our directions and GPS seemed to fail us as we drove deeper into the countryside on Farm to Market (FM) roads that didn’t seem to end. Farm after farm and roads that appeared to shrink in size as the large oak and pine trees overshadowed them with their huge century old branches. As we parked along the side of the road a couple who lived close by stopped and asked

Dreaming of Norway

Viking Ship I took this photograph when we were in Norway back in 2014. I have made my grandkids a large poster with it and a canvas for my Norwegian Aunt on my husband's side. She loves it except it would be nice if she could see the buildings on the dock too. They were obscured by the beautiful ships but overall she was very pleased with it. Waterfalls galore! I saw so many and each one was unique. The beauty of the landscape was incredible. If you have never ventured to this historic and rich culture you should! Adventure awaits you. This is the Church on the Island where my Mother-in-law and Aunt were born and raised. It is in the village of Gursken, on the western fjords. The beauty of the rocks of Norway The beauty of the landscape was around every turn and place. The rocks were amazing, a work of art in nature. Ulriken Cable Car The cable car was pretty scary for me, considering I am afraid of heights, but I did it! It was well worth

Seattle Aquarium 2018

Seattle Aquarium We loved visiting the Seattle Aquarium this past summer. There was so much variety and the exhibits were bursting with colors as pictured below: I think pictures tell a story sometimes as much as words. The staff at the Aquarium can be just as entertaining! If you haven't ever visited this great venue in Seattle, then you are missing out on a very educational experience. It is conveniently located at Pier 59 on the Elliott Bay waterfront among the quaint shops that line the harbor area. Check out their website Seattle Aquarium for events, tickets, and location.
