Columbus & Canal Day Trip.


As we leave this morning we come across these guys - we have seen them a few times.

Buzzards, vultures......ugly heads and not too small either.





The lake near our camp looking nice this morning as we cross over heading into Columbus.



Downtown Columbus, capitol of Ohio.




The local rag.........






First stop - State Capitol building for a look around.  Very different to other ones we have been in.




Lots of statutes and inside, the centre dome.





More of the ornate surroundings inside the State Capitol.


Outside is beautifully landscaped with many tributes to various military endeavours.



The days starting to heat up as we go for a wander around the surrounding streets.


Some of the old architecture around the city centre and below the State Capitol building.




We found The Peanut Shop around the corner with this guy.....


A quick slice of pizza for lunch & we decide to head to Canal to check out an auto museum.


Bob McDorman's Automobile Museum in Canal.


Sadly, Bob has passed away but his wife is still running the private museum.




So of the neat cars on display - very well set up museum.




Some of the memorabilia on display in the office.  Bob used to have a dealership.




Some cool signage here - all in excellent order.





More of the exhibits...............




Some modern cars too................






Neat little museum with some nice cars and memorabilia.  Back to camp we head to decide what to do and where to go next.
