[Leica] Friday Follies

[Don Dory]

Greetings to all.  This week will be somewhat holiday themed and possibly a
little commercial with one Chinese product showcase.  The first image is of
a pretty decent advert:

This image is the front door to a tourist shop that deals in the
"controversial".  An example is a t shirt they sell that says "Be kind to
animals or I'll kill you".  In any case pay a little more than cursory
attention to the details:

A sidewalk sign to a boot and western wear pavillion:

The entry to a widely known motel on the tourist strip:

One of my neighbors has moved in a daughter to care for a grandparent who
is suffering from Alzheimers.  This display is mostly to entertain the
grandmother:

While walking around I found this bit of art leaning up against a retaining
wall in front of the state School for the Deaf.  I found it a bit troubling
in light of the location:

All the best.
