I think by adding a suitcase, they're not misplaced?

The story behind the painting is interesting.. American Gothic

Actually, I had to figure it out for the photo I posted in Random Photos yesterday. I'm good to go now. I was thinking I might have to select different parts of the photo to do it, but no.

Here's a statue near the entrance to Navy Pier. I like how the base is tilted like a ship would be in rough waters.

Here's a statue of Liz Taylor and Richard Burton who put Puerto Vallarta on the map when they made the movie "Night of the Iguana" in the area. The statue sits at the entrance to a restaurant called La Fuente del Puente.
