 Whenever Cheria and I travel, we always try to keep a camera at the ready in
order to take advantage of any photographic opportunities that pop up. And since
many of these opportunities arise when we're traveling down the interstate at
highway speed, stopping to get a good shot usually isn't an option.
Such was the case last Sunday afternoon. We had driven our granddaughter
Olivia down to
Chester, SC to begin
her annual "Amy vacation". We had to take her to Chester this year because
Amy and Gene were
skydiving that weekend and
they were planning to just stay there instead of heading back to Wilmington.
Well, after watching Amy
and Gene fall out of the
sky a couple of times on Saturday, we spent the night at a local hotel and
departed for home on Sunday afternoon.
As we were heading back up I-77 towards Charlotte, I remembered seeing a huge
baseball standing high above the trees just a few yards from the highway. This
gigantic baseball is actually a water tower that has been painted to look
like a baseball in honor of the Charlotte Knights - the Triple-A minor
league affiliate of the Chicago White Sox. I have always loved
the game of baseball so I
asked Cheria to try to get a picture or two as we drove past the enormous
hardball. She did, and the result is the "Picture Of The Day".
