Durham, NC a few miles from Duke University (which makes sense, as Duke money built it).
It's an inn now, which made getting a picture easier than driving up someone's driveway - http://www.greystoneinn.info/

This is as close as I could get. It's the Combat Medic statue on Fort Sam Houston, in front of the Army Medical Department Museum.

Next challenge: your vw next to a roadside memorial.

You mean like where someone had a car crash and their family placed flowers? Something just does not sound right about that. Eh?

I was thinking the same thing & wouldn't that have been covered by "your VW next to road kill"?

I take it from something morbid and make it into something we should all be concerned about. An off duty police officer in an unmarked car without sirens was traveling at 80 mph in a 45 zone because he didn't want to be late returning his redbox movie. He hit the car driven by Sarah Bearden as she was turning left. That is Sarah Bearden's marker. The police officer was not charged.

Next challenge your car and some political advertisement from one of the candidates that is pulling or polling in single digits. I would think a Carly Fiorina or a Martin OMalley any of the lesser candidates. We know there are at least a couple of yard signs for these underdogs, your challenge find one.

The clock is ticking. Several of the never had a chance candidates have come to the realization that they never had a chance and have dropped out of the race. Pretty soon the yard signs, bumper stickers, buttons and campaign headquarters will be gone.

Honestly, I just don't see folks putting up signs for any candidates where I am this year; and my commute takes me through 5 towns.


This challenge is starting to stink of death.
