Day 21
The Great Seal of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
April 16th, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

You got it. A fellow Virginian!
What was the seal on? And are those MUSHROOMS at the bottom of the shield?
This was on a war memorial at the Jefferson County Court House. The things on the bottom are supposed to be sheaves of wheat, but they certainly do look more like mushrooms.
Kentucky, Massachusetts, and Virginia. Sucka.
Also correct!
And PR in a few decades.
Bonus points!
