Lucy and Cape May

As we were leaving Atlantic City, I made Ben stop to go visit Lucy the Elephant which was built in 1881!! You can visit the inside of Lucy - but kept to the outside!! ;)






First day camping - yup, in a tent!! Ben calls our camping luxurious - I call it primitive!! ;) We stayed at a small camping ground near Cape May. Great location as it is within walking distance of Cape May, but we were very close to our neighbours!!


Went for a walk and ran into this cute car!!







Downtown Cape May

A cute little grocery store in West Cape May

Can anybody help (maybe Pat??!!) on what kind of tree this is?? They were all over!!

I just love all those rich vibrant colors you get with your fish eye! I am so glad you bought that lens--such get eye candy for me!

Oh! I've seen Lucy on TV--how cool that you got to see her in person! I am loving this little "mini-vacation" you are sharing with us. Can't really tell on the tree, but sycamores usually have bark like that...
