God Bless. Get Outdoors. Take a Walk/Hike. Enjoy Nature. Thank you for visiting and sharing your time and thoughts with us. I appreciate y’all very much.
My daughter (Trisha), my grandson (Coleman), and my future granddaughter (Sophia).
This was taken on Tuesday evening at the entrance to Goat Island Park and Greenway as we were preparing to head back home. This was a rare occasion for us. My daughter normally doesn’t care to go walking and I do not see well at night to attempt walking anywhere.
However, my daughter is so ready to be over being pregnant that she decided she needed to try to start walking some on her days off. She is trying Curb Walking to try to speed the process up of Sophia being ready to make her entrance into this world. [I’ll be discussing Curb Walking further in a future post soon.]
Coleman loves to go walking/hiking at any given opportunity. He loved having his mom come along on an evening walk with us.
The 2025 Tesla Cybertruck is an electric pickup truck which has a distinctive stainless steel, wedge-shaped design. [When Coleman and I saw this Tesla Cybertruck near the Post Office in Downtown Cramerton it reminded me of the “Back to the Future’s” car. I know the “Back to the Future’s DeLorean DMC-12 does not exactly look like the new Tesla Cybertruck, but it to me back to memories of watching the “Back to the Future” movies with Michael J. Fox.]
Driver’s Side View
The Tesla Cybertruck is available in two main trims: 1) the Dual-motor all wheel drive; and 2) the tri-motor “Cyberbeast”. Cybertruck is available with Full Self-Driving (Supervised), a suite of advanced driver-assistance features designed to provide more active guidance and assisted driving under your active supervision. [I’m not sure if I’m ready for a Self-Driving car. Are you?]
It also features Blind Spot Monitoring which uses illuminated warning lights and on-screen visualizations to help you safely check your surroundings.
Passenger Side View
The Cybertruck features a range of up to 325 miles, a 123kWh battery on the all-wheel drive model, and a 600 horsepower output for the dual-motor version.
The Tesla Cybertruck is designed to be the safest truck on the road. It has a low center of gravity, impact-absorbing castings and the lowest probability of rollover for any truck tested by NHTSA.
I’m not sure who in town owns this Tesla Cybertruck, but it was interesting to see in our small town. Would you drive one?

Previously on October 5th I shared with you Cramerton’s newly installed Story Walk in Goat Island Park and Greenway along with John Steiner (host of CellPic Sunday). The first Storybook was called “School is more than a Building” written by Kelley Donner. At the time I had not realized the Storybooks would be changing periodically. You may click to view the previous post hereand view John’s CellPic Sunday post about the Storybook Walk here.
When Coleman and I went walking through Goat Island Park and Greenway last Sunday we discovered the Storybook for the Storybook Walk had been changed to “The Acorn & The Oak” written by Rhonda Accardo.

These first images of the Storybook were taken with my iPhone. The next set of images were taken with my Canon.

If you ever get the opportunity to be near the Charlotte, North Carolina area, Goat Island in Cramerton is just a short drive south of the Airport. I would highly recommend stopping by to visit this lovely Greenway and take a walk along the Storybook Walk on the paved trail.

This week Terri, host of Sunday Stills is offering the challenge prompt of Monthly Colour Challenge in Any Shade of Brown and/or Gray. I’ve scoured through my photos for shades of Brown, I have discovered many of them are from This Trail, That Trail & Trails Over There.
The other week we had a rare occasion to eat out. Normally, I do all the cooking at home, but on this day after my daughter’s and grandson’s doctors appointments we decided to stop for a bite to eat before going home.
Emergency Exit Only Olive Garden Italian Restaurant
We were all hungry (Coleman tends to be hungry all the time right now). We decided to stop at Olive Garden, a rare treat for us.
Trisha Pulled Up a Seat by the Emergency Exit Doors
Trisha (my daughter & Coleman’s mom) doesn’t like her pictures taken as you might can tell from her facial expression.
Coleman
Sometimes Coleman loves his picture being taken and at other times not. He does love looking at himself in pictures though.

Equus is a genus of mammals that includes Horses, Donkeys, Asses, and Zebras.
These Jackasses were introduced to us by our former landlord. He brought to a portion of his land adjacent to our rental property to raise with the assistance of his daughters.
A Jackass is an adult male donkey, females are called Jenny. Jacks or Jackasses (male donkeys) are often mated with female horses to produce mules. At one time the more common term for the donkey was Ass.
From the 18th century, donkey gradually replacedassand jenny replaced she-ass, which is now considered archaic.
This week I’m doing something a little different. I am joining Dan withNo Facilities and Marsha from the alwayswrite.blogin posting black and white photos (may include flowers) in memory of Cee Neuner. Cee hosted several challenges over her blogging career and as many know we lost a good friend and mentor earlier this year in March. Cee is missed tremendously, she is in our hearts, our thoughts, and her legacy lives on.
Dan Antion is continuing her Fun Foto Challenge and I’m continuing her Which Way Challenge. We are celebrating her birthday with black and white photos, with our memories, with flowers to remember Cee. I will continue the Which Way Challenge with the Any Which Way in Black and White for two (2) weeks to give anyone who wishes to join us in remembering Cee to participate.
For this Friday, November 7th I am posting One Day/One Photo in memory of Cee.
A collage for Cee
The Black and White photos for the Which Way Challenge can be Any Which Way, but remember Cee loved bridges and old barns. As you might recall Cee loved photographing Flowers so you may include flowers in your which ways or anywhere in your posts.

Capturing Leaves and such along the South Fork Catawba River before church this beautiful Sunny morning with Coleman. We enjoy walking along the riverbanks whenever the opportunity arises. And since we were feeling a bit better after being sick, it was an opportune time.
Platanus occidentalis
Leaves of American Sycamore trees …
The American Sycamore tree is native to Eastern North America; which includes the eastern and central United States, the mountains of northeastern Mexico, extreme southern Ontario, and extreme southern Quebec.
The American Sycamore is a long-lived species, typically surviving at least 200 years and likely as long as 500–600 years. Interestingly the species epithet occidentalis is Latin for “western,” referring to the Western Hemisphere and named as such by Carl Linnaeus since the only other species in the genus was P. orientalis (“eastern “), native to the Eastern Hemisphere. Therefore, it became confusing due to the fact that the American Sycamore was first known in the Eastern United States. Hence, it is sometimes referred to as the Eastern Sycamore in order to distinguish it from Platanus racemosa which was discovered later in the Western United States and called western sycamore.
Squares are back hosted by Becky from The Life of B. Click the link in the previous line to Check out her post for details regarding the #NovemberShadows squares challenge.
I’m combining my first #NovemberShadows entry with XingfuMama’s One-to-Three Photo Processing Challenge.

These are from one of the freight trains that pass by everyday while I(we) wait for the school bus. Coleman will never meet his maternal pawpaw during his lifetime, but he knows about him and what he looks like. He also knows that his Pawpaw drove an 18-wheeler for J. B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc..
When we saw these the other day Coleman recognized the J.B. Hunt logo and stated that that was the company his Pawpaw drove for. His Pawpaw drove an 18-Wheeler for J.B. Hunt from 1992 until a couple of years before his passing in 2018.

This week is a no theme week for Monochrome Madness, so I thought I’d share some from Standing on the Corner. Shots taken while waiting on the school bus watching the Train rolling slowly down the track. It was going slow … slower … slowly creeping to a stop not having enough power to complete its journey.
