Priest Parking

A rustic gray weathered wooden fence with a Walking around Bodega, California you can see some very interesting things. The turn of the century architecture is stunning, but I found intriguing a simple little sign proclaiming "Priest Parking" on a gray weathered fence. Maybe it was the evidence of no one ever parking there that I found amusing or maybe it was just that I never thought of priests as having assigned parking spots in such a rural location. Either way, I hope you like it.

Small Town, USA

Framed photo of a child's bright yellow antique wagon on drab sidewalkAll across America there are thousands of small towns that look empty to our eyes. We are used to our generic "big box" stores where we can find anything our heart desires. We do not have to make several stops; to the grocery, hardware store, or clothing store. Instead we can do one stop shopping now. The "big box" stores have moved in and the result is that the small "mom and pop" businesses are out. We are losing flavor. We are losing variety. We are losing our Small Town, USA. So I found myself taking in the remnants of what was left in this particular Small Town and found so much to appreciate. Support the small businesses of your community. They are us and they are in danger of becoming extinct.






A couple of brightly colored signs advertising children's art classes and supplies pops out encouraging the arts.
