One Strange Day - the rollercoaster that was Monday, May 5th

First the good news. Take the trip down to the 200 block of Pearl Street and get ready for a surprise. Someone had a really big can opener out there today.
I wet myself when I saw it.
The kick-off event for Preservation Month went great - head count was 51.
Hillary and a few thousand of her friends were exactly one block away at the same time (no photographs of that).


And it all happened in one day. I can't wait until tomorrow.

Who originally thought Reynolds Wrap was more attractive?
Do you have any idea what is going on? I almost went on a walk but decided to hang out on the deck and drink in peace.

I don't have any details. When I get some, I'll pass along. It sure is in damn good shape, isn't it? It's probably one of the most distinctive facades in town.

Thanks for filling us in.

I thought the same thing, Brett. I suppose tastes change over time...but dang...look at that facade.

The facade looks great; Reynolds’s Wrap’s new 30-second commercial should include the 2 female chefs explaining its new and improved material will wrap our buildings and keep them fresh and delicious, with no freezer burn!
