At the Virginia rest stop, this sign explains how they use natural energy to heat and cool the rest stops, not like Maine which just decided to close them. Maine isn't very inovative, I guess.
San Benito has its Christmas Decs up or at least some of them. Heck, it isn't even close to Thanksgiving yet.
We notice how many birds here are not very skiddish around people. This lazy blue heron was waiting for the fishermen to leave some fish on the beach for him.

We went to Veteran's Day ceremonies at the Iwo Jima monument.
This is Alonzo Delgado who was 17 when he was at the battle of iwo Jima. His job was to guard Mount Siriachi after they planted the flag. After all these years, he is just now getting his bronze star . It seems when it was time to leave the island, they young men were anxious to go and never recieved their medals. The lady to his left is his wife and in back is his daughter who is so proud of her Dad. He is a sweet and gentle man.
For some reason, there is a lady standing practically on the parade grounds during the ceremonies. See her on the left by the flags? I guess she wanted to get a good vantage point.
Long horn......really long horns.
