The Frank Lloyd Wright Gas Station

3/27/2018

2 Comments

 
The only functioning gas station ever designed and built by Frank Lloyd Wright, known as America’s greatest architect, is located in Cloquet, Minnesota.
Only a 30-minute drive west of Duluth, Minnesota, on the edge of the St. Louis River, is a little logging town in the North Woods called Cloquet. This town began as a group of small settlements around three sawmills: Shaw Town, Nelson Town, and Johnson Town. Today, it has a population of a little over 12,000 people.

Many people would be very surprised to learn that this quiet little town is uniquely tied to America’s greatest architect, Frank Lloyd Wright. Cloquet is the location of the only functioning gas station ever designed and built by Mr. Wright. It is also the only piece of Wright’s Broadacre City project ever to be constructed.

A Visit to the Stunning Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens

3/9/2018

I fell in love with this wonderful tree and the spectacular view of the Onomea Bay coastline from Turtle Point at Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens on the Big Island of Hawaii.
Of all the botanical gardens I have visited in the United States, the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden on the Big Island of Hawaii is my favorite. It spans 40 acres of untouched rain forest and is home to over 2,000 species of tropical plants. However, it is not just a botanical garden but also a breathtaking tropical nature preserve and sanctuary. With its multi-tiered waterfall, numerous streams, and a picturesque oceanfront walk along Onomea Bay, this garden has earned its reputation as one of Hawaii's most magnificent destinations.

The adventure begins before you even reach the Garden…

    I am the 8th photographer in 4 generations of my family. Back in 2006, my husband accepted a job traveling, and I jumped at the chance to go with him. 

    I blog about long scenic drives and places that I find interesting around the United States.
