On the grounds of the Colorado Chautauqua.

True story: I sat on this bench and listed through the walls of the auditorium to Bruce Cockburn’s soundcheck a few hours before an actual concert. In fact, let’s assume that I heard “Mighty Trucks of Midnight”* while I was taking this picture.

It’s a mystery.

I can find out these things about the late Mr. Tullos:
– He was born in Hazelhurst, Mississippi
– He was a farmer
– His wife, Viola, died in 1952
– Viola has a granite marker at her grave
– He was a member of the Church of Christ

What I can’t find out is why his marker is a plastic dishpan, filled with concrete, with a plastic cross planted in it.

Above the Colorado Chautauqua, old concrete street markers are reused as bollards to mark the edge of the trail.
