This shot made my day. I ended the walk after this and jumped in my plane back home :)

This is the last of three murals painted by local artist and businessman by Kevin Hansen...
I have added the frame here in my post-processing.
Also, since I don't know if the artist has given it a title, I have titled it temporarily here. I will change it if and when I hear otherwise.
Kevin is a cobbler who owns and operates Molly's Cobbler Shop, which is just 10 blocks from our home.
He is also an accomplished artist, regularly producing original artwork, often hanging them outside on one of his shop walls. He often features themes of our city and state. I love his style and effective use of colors!
As I was passing his shop today, I parked, got out, and captured each of the three Christmas murals hanging on his outside wall. This is one of those paintings. I may put all three of them in a collage and post them.
Here are two links if you want to see more of Kevin's artistry. The first link is to his shop's website, and the second features more of his art projects :)

Meine lieben Jungens!
Hier sende ich Euch eine Ansicht von meinem Büro.
Wie gefällt Euch dieselbe?
Nun betrachtet mal meinen recht langen Brief.
Hier gibt’s fast nichts Neues.
Am Sonntag war ich in Bremerhaven
und habe die Europa besichtigt.
Herzliche Grüße von Haus zu Haus
Euer Großvater

Welcome to the Wilkins house. This quaint home painted baby blue and pink was once owned by a prominent businessman in the community. However today it has fallen into neglect and now considered endangered as the landmarks office is trying to find a quick buyer.
The house was built by John T. C. Wilkins in 1860. His son would later occupy and renovate the house in the 1890s. He would adapt this house to patterns used by George Barber, an architect from Tennessee. Barbers work was famous for including design features such as gingerbread trim, arches and balconies.
Sadly this property fell into serious neglect after being acquired by the town. It was purchased with the intent of demolition to make way for a new splash park and town well. This didn't sit well with many and the house continued to fall into disrepair. Staff from the local landmarks office took notice and worked with town officials to save this unique house from demolition. An agreement was finally made and now a preservation-minded person is being sourced to purchase the segment of the property with the house. The only catch is that the purchaser will be required to fully restore the house within two years of purchase. As of writing this post, this house is still on the market and has been for sale since 2021. Hopefully someone will save this fairy tale house before it meets an inevitable fate.

Update: As of 2024, this house is undergoing restoration and no longer in the condition that it was photographed!
As the late morning sun climbs higher over St. Louis, UP PJCPB 13 sweeps around the curve beneath the towering factory walls, streaking through the industrial corridor with UP 6079 leading a 10-car business train made up of Union Pacific’s streamlined heritage fleet cars. Navigating the city was no challenge for the stockholder special, having green signals all the way south before even crossing the river for a crew change.
J'ai toujours vu ce costume cravate comme un uniforme et je n'ai jamais vraiment aimé les uniformes.

Marimurtra, Blanes, La Selva, Girona, España.
Situado en Blanes, en la Costa Brava, el Jardín Botánico Marimurtra es uno de los jardines más bellos de la orilla del Mediterráneo. Sobre unos acantilados que bordean el mar se pueden contemplar algunas de las panorámicas más espectaculares de la costa y conocer más de quatro mil especies vegetales, la mayoría exóticas, así como un buen número de ejemplares extraordinarios por su edad o dimensiones.
Marimurtra es la obra de un hombre apasionado por la naturaleza. Carl Faust (Hadamar, Alemania 1874-Blanes 1952), empresario establecido en Cataluña, dedicó su ilusión, su esfuerzo y todo su patrimonio a la realización de su sueño, el Jardín Botánico Marimurtra.
