The weather was about to turn cool and rainy. But until it did, kids were busy playing in the fountains outside Union Station.

boot heel

The grave marker way down at the end of the cemetery had a thick square wooden post and several cowboy boots hanging from it. This boot, which was in full sun every single afternoon that wasn’t cloudy, was much the worse for that level of sun exposure. I don’t guess I understood how many nails there are in a boot until I saw this one.

several levels of security

Really, I hope that none of you were under the impression that you could just…walk…into this abandoned mill complex. Because the security is very tight, with padlocks and chains, heavy twill tape, chainlink fencing with the pokey bits at the top, and barbed wire.

Look! Another state, another time I carried my camera into the restroom.

You’re welcome.

sun/shade

This guy? He was the smartest person on the whole First Friday Art Trail. It was hot – really hot, like 103° – and he had the foresight to bring his own shade structure with him.

Kudos, Umbrella Guy!

Also, check out the dude in the hoodie. I hope he was warm enough.
