And this crane was the last one placed on my trip. So from here on, they'll likely be placed in my home area. Mostly that means that the entries won't be posted in such a mass amount, which is good for all of us. Hopefully people in Montreal and Quebec came across these little guys and come on over to the website.

Although this one was placed right next to a computer, it's probably really hard to see. Most of the crane itself is white, and obviously the surroundings are pretty white as well. Most of the hotel was white, black, or a shade of gray. Pretty modern.

Couldn't have placed this crane in a better building. Hands down, this was the most beautiful thing I saw on my trip. It's also the most photographed hotel in North America (according to a number of tour guides I had.) I certainly took a number of pictures of it, so I'd have to agree.

20. Mirth

(n) hilarity, great merriment

This crane was placed on a bench in the middle of the walkway. I have a feeling that this one wasn't discovered before it started raining. It didn't even look like it was supposed to rain that day (as it did during a number of times during my trip.) So there's a good chance this one didn't make it. It'd be great if someone stumbled upon this guy before, of course, but he also risked being sat on. I'm trying not to leave cranes outside when it looks like there's a pretty good chance of rain. Oh well! Live and learn.

While I tried not to repeat words in my list, some variations were inevitable. However, I didn't realize I had put this one and Kind (17) so close together. I tried to separate them as much as possible, but it slipped through the cracks. I'm going to try to make sure similar words are separated a bit better from now on. But who doesn't like people who are kind/show kindness?
