From the Riverfront Times: "'Vertical Loop' consists of seven 30-foot-tall poles with carved images representing the lifestyle of the Delmar Loop; four of the seven poles are topped with decorative windvanes, including a ballet slipper, a book, a guitar and a painter's palette."

Saturday evening's peaceful protests in the Loop neighborhood of St. Louis gave way to unlawful agitators who caused damage to the glass fronts of many of the businesses. On Sunday, local artists helped out by covering the boarded-up windows with some beauty. Quite heartening. #delmarloop #universitycity #stlouis #missouri #heartening

Tested out one of the cameras I picked up on my Chicago trip. It was having film transport issues. Oh well, at least I had my digital with me.

This is why I always have a backup backup camera with me. When the Fuji didn't turn on properly, I was able to grab my Canon and keep on truckin'.

Yay, another bicycle bell image for my collection. I'm not often in a place with bikes parked on the street, so when I am, I try to find a bell to capture; and I'm always thinking of my buddy, Georgette. :) I found this one on the Delmar Loop.
