No Pets Allowed

In homage to the wonderful song, "Georgia."

This is from my new set (October 2024), "In Homage," which is a remembrance and tribute to people, places, and things that deserve to be remembered and honored. View more In Homage in the set:

Click on the photo to view it larger size. This one is lightly processed; I think the texture adds to the scene.

This is at the Welcome Center/rest stop in Georgia; it's the first one right after you cross the Florida/Georgia state line going north on I-95. I went to the soda machine, got my bottle of Fanta orange soda you see lying there on my saddlebag, and then took this shot.

I particularly enjoy visiting this center during the Holidays...they put up a large, beautifully decorated tree inside.

This rest stop has clean indoor restrooms; snack and soda machines; outdoor tables and benches including cooking areas; and plenty of places to sit and watch people go by and rest up for the remainder of your journey.

Yes, that green thing is a real torpedo. Just up the road is the Kingsbay Naval Submarine Base, and this "installation" pays homage to that fact.

More photographs of my ramblings in my ongoing Album, "The 1312 to Everywhere."

Current total mileage to date (2021)…113,782 Miles!
