Which Way Challenge (CWWC): December Week 2 — Any Which way with a Christmas holiday theme

This week I am combining the Which Way Challenge with Judy’s Numbers Game #51-172 & Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Decorations. I have chosen to use a theme of Any Which Way with a Christmas Holiday Theme.

My Which Ways this week are from the Cramerton Christmas Parade. Remember signs are always welcome in the Which Way Challenge.

You may have noticed the last photo doesn’t exactly show a Which Way, however, I decided to include Coleman with Santa and Mrs. Claus anyway. They rode on the Cramerton Fire Engine to end the Parade, but I couldn’t capture a good shot of them. Santa’s arrival signaled the end of the Parade. Santa and Mrs. Claus then made their way down to Confluence for picture taking time with the children.

Thank you to all those who joined in the Which Way Challenge (CWWC) December Week 1 Challenge. You might enjoy checking out the Which Ways from:

Season Greetings y’all! For this week’s Which Way Challenge (CWWC) I have chosen Any Which Way with People.

Please make sure your which way is the main object of your photo. Thanks.

The Which Way Challenge (CWWC) is all about capturing the means we travel from place to place such as roads, walkways, trails, and rails. The roads could be paved or unpaved, gravel, or dirt. Walkways could cover sidewalks, hallways, or pathways. Trails are paths we travel through Greenways, Local, State, or National Parks. Also permissible are any kinds of signs and any bridge angle. Remember to ensure your “Way” is visible and the main focus of your photo.

A Walk Through the Neighbourhood

Cee’s Which Way My Which Way

I’ve been missing Cee’s posts. I pray she is doing alright. This week I am again posting a Which Way My Way showing Which Ways in My New Neighbourhood. My grandson, Coleman and I are beginning to roam around our new neighborhood investigating what interesting things and places we can find in the area. Here are a few shots from yesterday’s walk through the neighbourhood.

I’ve been missing Cee’s posts this week. I pray she is doing alright. This week I am again posting a Which Way My Way showing Which Ways in Monochrome. My grandson, Coleman and I had the privilege of hiking in our favorite Greenway on Tuesday. I only had my smartphone with me; I chose to take some of our adventures in monochrome and silvertone via my smartphone features. I hope you’ll enjoy them.

I hope y’all will share your Which Ways with us. I am linking to Cee’s Which Way Challenge and Leanne’s Monochrome Madness.

2024 CWWC: My Which Way — Any Paved Road with cars, people, and/or snow

For this the last week of September and I light of the Effects of Hurricane Helene, I have chosen to choose a theme of Any Paved Roads where I am focusing on Paved Roads in Germany. I am challenging everyone to participate in this week’s Which Way Challenge by sharing your Paved Roads.

In the Winter of December 1978/January 1979 my parents flew over to Germany to visit my brother & his family. [My brother was stationed there for a few years while serving in the United States Air Force.]

Shown above are just a few of the Paved Roads my parents rode on while visiting with my brother in Germany. What kind of Paved Roads will you find to share with us? I hope y’all will share your Which Ways with us. Looking forward to Cee taking the Which Way Challenge back on in October.

Thank you for visiting and sharing my parents memories with me. They enjoyed their time in Germany, however, I do not recall seeing their slide photos before I began digitizing my Dad’s slides.

Road Trippin’ USA #5

Which Ways 

St. Louis, Missouri

And Westward

In the Summer of 1985 my parents went Road Trippin’ across the United States of America. They began their Road Trip leaving from their home in San Diego, California. They always planned what or whom they wanted to visit ahead of time.

This week I’m continue with their Road Trippin’ adventures for My Which Way of Cee’s Which Way Challenge in St. Louis, Missouri.

Last week we saw my parents driving southbound from Indianapolis, Indiana after they completed their tour of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Today, we are taking a look first around St. Louis, Missouri and then we’ll continue on their westward journey.

St. Louis, Missouri:

The first stop they made was in St. Louis was at the Gateway Arch National Park. At the Gateway Arch they were able to take a tram ride to the top. The tram lifts you up 630 feet up to the top of the tallest monument in the United States.

While there they also visited the Gateway Arch Museum and later took a Riverboat Dinner Cruise on a 19-century paddle-wheel riverboat. They rode on the Tom Sawyer Riverboat along the Mississippi River seeing stunning views of the skyline. It was a unique and relaxing way for them to experience seeing the Gateway Arch and downtown St. Louis.

Next up on their Road Trippin’ USA Adventure was to drive westward to the U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY has many sites and facilities available for visitors to see on a self-guided tour. Their visit stop at the Academy was the Barry Goldwater Visitor Center, here they explored the resources available to help them with their tour.

Among the many various facilities they were able to visit were the Planetarium, the Cadet Chapel, Honor Court, Polaris Hall, Arnold Hall, Dolittle Hall, Falcon Stadium, and Thunderbird Overlook. The Cadet Chapel is located at the base of the Chapel Trail. From the Chapel Trail, they were able to view the historical statues and sculptures on displayed at the Honor Court. The U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY’s Gift Shop is located on the second floor of Doolittle Hall, which I’m sure they bought souvenirs to bring home.

Next week I’ll continue with their Road Trippin’ adventures for My Which Way of Cee’s Which Way Challenge. We’ll begin in New Mexico and venture onto visiting the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson, Arizona.

Road Trippin’ USA #3

Which Ways

Washington D.C.

And Beyond

In the Summer of 1985 my parents went Road Trippin’ across the United States of America. They began their Road Trip leaving from their home in San Diego, California. They always planned what or whom they wanted to visit ahead of time.

Continuing with their stop in Washington D.C. and a few sites in Manassas, Virginia with a side visit with my brother and his family.

The above are their last views of Washington D.C. before leaving the area. From D.C. my parents drove to near Manassas, Virginia to visit with my brother and his family for a spell.

Having rested up and enjoyed a nice family visit, they set out again for further site seeing adventures. They stopped in Manassas enjoying several sites including the Manassas National Battlefield Park.

My dad loved to plan at least one stop on our vacations which had an historical significance. He would also plan a different site for our family to enjoy some fun. On this trip he and my mom planned to visit sites that held significant interest to them.

The next stop on their Road Trippin’ USA adventure was The Henry Ford – Museum Of American Innovation in Dearborn, Michigan.

Julian Stage Line

As they walked up to the entrance they enjoyed seeing the displays at the entrance like this Julian Stage Line vehicle. Julian reminds me of a town just a short ways east of San Diego County in California that has the best Apple pies and beautiful countryside.

Next week I’ll continue with their Road Trippin’ adventures for My Which Way of Cee’s Which Way Challenge at The Henry Ford – Museum Of American Innovation.

Road Trippin’ USA #2

Which Ways

Washington D.C.

In the Summer of 1985 my parents went Road Trippin’ across the United States of America. They began their Road Trip leaving from their home in San Diego, California. They always planned what or whom they wanted to visit ahead of time.

On the road again, their next planned stop was in Washington D.C. after a side visit to my brother near Manassas, Virginia. My parents toured many of the historical sites and monuments around the area. Some of the sites were seen via a tour bus while others were seen via self-guided walking tour routes. They toured the Bureau of Engraving and Printing Building, the National Museum of American History, The Washington Monument, The Lincoln Memorial, The Smithsonian Castle, Capitol Hill and the Ulysses S. Grant Memorial Statue. What would be your interests if you toured Washington D.C. or your country’s Capitol?

Here you may see some of the Roads, Routes, or Pathways they took on their tour of D.C.:

The last photo isn’t exactly a pathway unless you consider going round and round on a merry-go-round one you’d also enjoy taking on occasion.,

2024 CWWC: My Which Way — August – Week 2

For this week in doing Cee’s Which Way My Way I’m choosing a theme of Roads, Pathways, or Waterways. And as always, signs are welcome anytime. I’d love for y’all to join me in posting your Which Ways whether on Land or Sea. Remember to link your Which Way posts to Cee’s Which Way here or if you wish you can link to My Which Way here.

For my own Which Way this week I have combined it with Sunday Stills Challenge from Terri with her theme of #Float, #Afloat. In other words, my Which Ways are on both Land and Sea. These are from a visit my parents took to The Ports O’ Call in San Pedro, California. They toured the Ports O’ Call Village walking the pathways and took a tour cruise around the Bay. My dad loved to take pictures when they went places (thus my love of photography).
