Me: In a Cake!"


Too Cute!! Driving in the country way back in July 2021, we saw this cutie, Had to share. What fun. Got more info about about it online ...the joke was pictured, so I had to share that as well, I am wondering, was it just a local or the postmaster? HUMOR makes the world go around, Love it!!! Who doesn't love a bit of humor?? What was pictured the day we did pass by you might ask?? "Rockfish Post Office, Happy Birthday, USA!" Thank you for your visit, hope you are well today. Have a Nice Day!! Take Care. Beth ( ;

The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees?
