Cowboy Cafe

A relatively simple facade

that is nevertheless reminiscent

of The Alamo;

bull-riding silhouette

against a western sunset;

palm tree,

blue sky;

what more could one ask?

Julia's Mural

This colorful bird adds a touch

of tropical atmosphere to the parking

at Julia's Mexican Restaurant.

While the bird takes in the lovely scenery

of lake and snow-capped mountain,

he also wonders at the mysterious

interruption of crude tagging

on the tree trunk and in the distant sky...
