Lovers Point Cypresses

Lovers Point,

in Pacific Grove, California,

is one of those places where,

on any given day,

one could stand in one spot

and take a hundred pictures or more

without taking exactly the same picture twice.

I honestly could just sit on a park bench

and look at these trees,

listening to the ocean

all day.

On the day I took these pictures,

I was at Lovers Point to officiate a wedding.

Also in Mesa...

Here're a few photos

I almost included in yesterday's post,

but decided they would be a bit overwhelmed

by the mural.

Heatwave Mural

This unusual mural is in Mesa, Arizona,

where one could imagine the heat causing

this mirage / melting effect.

The work is called "Melting Point,"

created by Mural Mice.

Legends, Kansas City

Formerly Legends at Village West,

the Legends Outlets

is a premiere shopping center

in Kansas City, Kansas.

Everywhere you look,

there is artwork depicting

the history of Kansas,

and, in particular,

the many and various

LEGENDARY

citizens of Kansas.

And, of course,

they included

The Yellow Brick Road!

Then,

there is this

unusual

restaurant....
