Here we have a pair of oddball cows in the pool aboard the Holland America’s ms Zaandam. They brighten up the ship, even on cloudy days.

While on Cape Cod in Chatham, Massachusetts last weekend, we stayed a a quaint little motel called the Chatham Highlander. We found this green painted bicycle leaning against a tree, pretending to be a flower pot.

My wife and I were walking on the sidewalk in our local outdoor mall called “Friendly Center” when we happened upon this flower growing through the crack. Life is unrelenting in its tenacity.

On March 21st of this year, my wife and I visited a North Carolina Civil War battle site in the town of Bentonville. I will have an entire post on that battle sometime in the near future. For now, I wanted to share a picture I took just outside of the state historical park.
The relatively new boat on a trailer was parked outside of this broken down old house that had obviously been moved to an empty lot and placed on some blocks of wood. The boat seemed so out of place that I just had to stop and take this photo.

I have been posting about St. Lucia this week so I thought I would continue in that vein with my weekly COB challenge. Today we have an image from the first stop on our extended nature tour on the island. This pit stop was unusual in that there was a charge to use the facilities (not ‘No Facilities‘ like Dan Anton’s blog, but Chargeable Facilities)
If you expand the picture, you will see the sign on the entry ‘WASHROOMS – $2.00 US per person’. Also, notice the two water tanks on the top of the building. As you go down the path alongside the building showing on the left hand side of this picture, you find an open window with a man collecting for use of the facilities.
In my extensive experience in the Caribbean, this is certainly an Oddball occurrence.
My wife and I were on a long photo excursion through Old San Juan in Puerto Rico when we happened by this scene. I knew right away it was destined for Cee’s Oddball Photo Challenge. I think the “No Bicycles” sign was intended to mean “No riding your bicycles down the steps into the park below.” However, the positioning of the bike below the sign was just perfect:
Grand Cayman started a project to save the giant blue iguana’s which are nearly extinct on the island. Statues are placed around the city of Georgetown and painted by local artists to attract attention to their struggle. I captured this one on the waterfront street.
The painting makes him (her) quit an oddball.

The big winter storm on the east coast left about 10″ of snow in our area of North Carolina. The snow, in combination with the wind, left these two interesting sculptures on the posts of my back deck. I call them my “Snow Gargoyles”.
You can imagine whatever you want into these interesting shapes. My wife Alice made the discovery through our back windows and I ran to grab the camera and capture the moment. She saw an eagle in the first and I saw a horse head in the second. What do you see?
