Inexplicable Seating
I am not sure why it once seemed like a good idea to place concrete benches along the town’s main drag. Maybe in simpler times, breathing the exhaust of passing cars and staring at the pavement was a legit thing to do if you had a bit of spare time?

I guess I should check it out one of these Friday nights, in hopes of spotting these “stylish people” you speak of.

I do like the cool overhangs, but wonder if they would help in the rain…

No. They wouldn’t help at all. But around here getting away from the sun is more of a pressing problem that getting rained on.

Someone on my One Day | One Image Facebook page posted a photo of this street when the shelters and benches were first installed – the original benches were grouped together under the shelters, which makes more sense than the current arrangement.
