We're still on holiday in West Virginia...if I had my way, we'd never leave. Here are photos of the skies we saw over Clarksburg (birthplace of Stonewall Jackson), Philippi (home of yesterday's mummies and much much more), and the battlefield at Gettysburg PA, just a few hours drive east from our house.


You can see more skies around the world at Skywatch Friday: Join in!

Fantastic collection of phtoos for sky watch friday, the fence does create a fun frame for the view of the sky.
Great set of photos. I would like to visit each place.
Ohhhh, I love the fence photo.
It looks lovely. Hope you enjoy your time in the good ol' USA!
Those are all great shots. Happy skywatching!
That is a wonderfully framed view of the place where the Gettysburg fracas kicked off. Perfect.
Ol' Stonewall....Came very near stopping off at his monument in Virginia, but didn't. The south is an amazing place for its loyalty to its men.
West Virginia is lovely. Thanks for keeping us on the road with you.
What a beautiful part of the world to take a vacation. You did a great job of sharing your trip with us.
I love the view through the fence post. Very nicely done.
These are beautiful..such nice workmanship too-
Hope you enjoy your visit-
what a great building.

Beautiful shots. Thanks for sharing.
I like the perspective/composition of last picture.
Neat Photo's! I like the last one best...I love barns and fields! Happy Friday! :)
I love the shot through the fence, very clever!
I just stumbled on your other blog. I am wondering about your children with autism. I'm a social worker in the states and have worked with families who also have children with autism. We have a parent's support group here. Are there many services in Ireland?
Thanks everyone!
Mountain Mama, services are different in Ireland; it's worse and better depending. I'll be happy to tell you all about our experiences; I'm at write@stonyriver.ie if you'd like to e-mail me. Thanks for your comment!
Marvelous shots, Susan! Gorgeous skies and such lovely colors. You seem to have had such a great trip and I'm so very glad! I do like the last shot with the fence, adds a great perspective!
Have a lovely weekend!

WOW what wonderful pictures....:-) Bernie
Big and lovely views. Wonderful structures too.Have a good holiday.
Thank you for your visit and comments.
Fabulous shots! Loved the raccoons too -such sweet appealing faces.
Beautiful skies and all the history in this area must be wonderful.
Beautiful skies and pictures!
We love West Virginia, were just there last week actually, though not in Clarksburg. Lovely photos, sounds like a great holiday.
Great Skywatch, Susan. "Philippi" is kind of an American castle - sad when compared to all the great castles in Ireland.
Susan,
I think you could get a job working for West Virginia tourism. Nice advertising shots. ;-)
But Ireland is gorgeous too...at least the parts of it that you've shown us.
I am glad you are enjoying your stay...and I love that last picture.
Hi Susan,
Thanks for stopping by Oils For Wellness and leaving the nice comment about the photo of my son. I am not a natural born photographer, but once in awhile I am blessed with a good photo! :)
Be well, Jen
Beautiful pictures! But how could you not want to go back to Ireland, which is so lovely?!
