Sculpture Garden

051116

I saw these joyous sculptures every day as I was walking back and forth between my hotel and the convention center, and one day I decided to cross the street for a better look. And, of course, a photo or two or fifteen.

Not Canada

Getting a little bit of a mixed message here, with the Spanish name and the Canadian flag and the Vietnamese restaurant and the actual location in Arizona. Sometimes things are more confusing than they need to be.

These are not exits

Really. They’re just not. Don’t even think you can get out through those doors.

Pigeons: the evidence

050816

I have a pretty strong idea that there are a lot of pigeons living in the structure of this parking garage. The amounts of pigeon crap and pigeon feathers give it away.

As did my personal observation of lots of those rats-with-wings.

But the lighting was nice, anyway.

It’s outdoor furniture season

050716

A couple of years ago, a windstorm with gusts around 100 mph (no kidding!) damaged some furniture we had out at our place in the country. We* tried to fix the broken pieces, but finally abandoned that plan. As a result we were shopping for new furniture. I, of course, was more interested in photography than chairs…
