Kansas City BBQ!

9/20/2018

Lunchtime at B.B.'s Lawnside BBQ

Ribs!

Sometimes I just have to crawl out of the camera bag and into the food basket. Then I enjoy a good whiff of the sweet barbecue smells!

Kansas City knows how to do barbecue.

Absorbing the Flavors

I don't get to eat. I'm a stuffed bear. But I love absorbing the smells right into my fur. Beth stuck me back in the camera bag before I got sticky.
I smelled that bbq all day long!

A Blue Penguin in Missouri

9/9/2018

My Big Friend in Kansas City

I didn't travel with any friends on our road trip to Missouri. So I was glad when I made a friend at the 21c Museum/Hotel. I sat on my friend's blue head.

So Smooth

The 21c Hotel is a hotel and a museum. They have sky blue penguins all over the hotel. You can even move them around if you want. I just sat peacefully on his head. I didn't even use his beak like a slide. Although I was tempted.

I felt like I was part of the art when I sat in the hallway, on my blue penguin friend.

I'm not sure if anyone noticed me, but I noticed them walking by.

I wish we could have taken this guy home with us.

Weeping Willow Tree

9/8/2018

A Tree in Guthrie, Oklahoma

I've posed in palm trees and trees with autumn leaves. I've even posed with Spanish moss. But this was my first time to have my picture taken in a Willow Tree!

Beth really should have taken a video, because the breeze was blowing and it was wild! The long whip-like branches were blowing like hair. She had to hold the branch still to click the photo. It was fun!

Brussels Ferry

9/5/2018

From Missouri to Illinois

Beth made me stay in the car, when the ferry took us across the Mississippi River.

She posed me beside the window. "I need a photo of you in Illinois!" Beth said. I smiled (well sort of) and then asked her to turn me the other way. Then at least I could see the river and ferryboat!

Some Hands in Tulsa

9/1/2018

Tulsa, Oklahoma

Today I stopped in Tulsa and sat on a bush. There are a lot of bushes in the city, so it's hard to guess exactly where I might be.

Guess Now!

Most people who live in Tulsa, would have a pretty good guess where I am in this photo, even though the background is blurred.

Praying Hands

You can't live in Tulsa and not recognize this statue. I really wanted to climb to the top of those fingers. Beth didn't let me climb Mount Rushmore either. I just posed in the bush.

Chalkboard Adventure?

8/7/2018

A Funny Hotel in Portland, Oregon

Ms. Donkey and I were a little excited when we found a chalkboard in our hotel room. The hotel was once a school and schools used to have chalkboards and big fat erasers!

But all we could do was sit on the eraser. The chalk dust made me cough a little. The board and the chalk were just too big.

We watched Beth have fun on the chalkboard and we were a little jealous. This was not my favorite adventure.

Mount St. Helens

Another Mountain in Oregon

Ms. Donkey and I are having quite a road trip. We visited Mount Hood the other day and today we posed on a dead tree and looked at another mountain.

A Volcano

This is the first volcano I've ever seen. It's hard to imagine what it looked like in 1980, when it erupted. It's a little scary to think about the tree we were sitting on. It was standing tall, before the eruption. Yikes.

Seahurst Beach Park

8/5/2018

Seattle, Washington

Today I am in the state of Washington for the first time. I've been in about 25 states now. Ms. Donkey is new to road tripping, so she's only up to about 8.

What a spot, sitting near the beach along Puget Sound. I like Washington, so far.

Mount Hood in Oregon

8/1/2018

Traveling with my Buddy

Our road trip took us into Oregon today. We took a brief detour and walked up a trail.

What an amazing view of Mount Hood! It was August, but we could see people skiing on those white patches!

Ms. Donkey and I climbed a rock for a good view. From our rocky spot, we could see snow and we could see flowers. Happy!

Last Day in Idaho

7/31/2018

On the Tracks

Ms. Donkey and I spent 3 nights in Idaho on our road trip. We posed on some railroad tracks on our last day.

Safe

No worries! That train could not get to us.

Train Depot

Ms. Donkey and I hiked down the hill a bit, for a view of the old depot.

I Love Trains

I love the idea of trains and train stations! Maybe my next trip with Ms. Donkey will be a train trip. Cars are boring.
