What is he thinking?

You have to wonder what this Gorilla is thinking, he has the best expression on his face.   I bet he is enjoying looking at the stream of people walking by.  This photo was taken on our Good Friday Trip to the Cleveland MetroParks Zoo.

Chick-fil-A #awesomized

This photo was taken last night at the Chick-fil-A in Macedonia, Ohio.  It was taken with an iPhone 4S using the Camera Awesome App created by SmugMug.  I am very happy with the results and I cannot believe what we are getting out of a camera phone.

This photo was also shared on my Instagram and Twitter.

From Wikipedia -

“The Fountain of Eternal Life, also known as the War Memorial
Fountain and Peace Arising from the Flames of War, is a statue
and fountain in Cleveland, Ohio designed by Cleveland Institute
of Art graduate Marshall Fredericks and dedicated on May 30,
1964. The sculpture, which serves as the city’s major memorial
to its citizens that served in World War II, is situated on
Memorial Plaza, which is part of the Cleveland Mall.

The fountain was initiated and promoted by the Cleveland Press,
which raised $250,000 in donations from private citizens and
various organizations for the project. The centerpiece is a
35-foot (10.7 m) bronze figure representing man escaping from
the flames of war and reaching skyward for eternal peace. The
bronze sphere from which the figure rises represents the earth.
Four granite carvings, representing the geographic civilizations
of the world, are placed around the sphere. On the surface of
the polished granite rim surrounding the fountain are bronze
plates bearing the names of 4,177 Greater Clevelanders who
perished in WWII and in the Korean War. Following a complete
restoration during the construction of an underlying parking
garage in connection with the neighboring Key Tower, the
memorial was rededicated on Veterans Day in 1991″.
