Title: At the hotel with the LIKE200i this morning
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on August 18, 2021, 07:03:59 PM
Mills Park Hotel....
I'd go into Ellie's dining room for a nice coffee on their great porch....but she doesn't open until 8:00AM. Heck, many mornings I'm on my way home after coffee at that hour. Dino is pouring fresh strong coffee at 6:45AM)

And, I don't post a photo without a scooter in it, but I saw this shot down the street this morning while having my coffee....

@Stig, nice pix.
When I saw this artistically painted garbage can and hydrant at the curb, came in my mind, people here got fined for painting their front door hydrant.
Reasoning: Hydrant cannot be disdinguished easily by fireman.....

Yellow is a common color for a fire hydrant here. If you live in a HOA (home owners association ) they can dictate what colors you can use on your house. They also have to approve about anything else you do to your home.

My BIL and sister live in a HOA. Before they bought they looked into the covenants to put up a Ham Radio antenna and there were none. When BIL put up a antenna holy hell broke loose.  No individuality allowed everyone must conform.

Yellow is standard color for the hydrants....our hydrant has a greet hat on it!...painted by the city.
As for the coffee village trash cans....They're not painted. (only Joe's Toyota station wagons are painted :), 5 of them last count)
These trash barrels are heavy concrete outers, with plastic lift-outs inside. Many of these were adopted by local artisans (pottery shops, teens, etc.) and have been decorated with kiln fired shapes of all kinds. Each has a theme, or animal, etc.

These ceramic creations are applied to benches as well.....

Trees (and light poles) as well,  are not safe from a gang of roving terrorists armed with knitting needles  :)

Holy Moly...!  "How can anyone allow such knitting on public trees?", people here would ask..
Small minds.
Like this enamelled trashcans, show some artistic thinking.
