Public Art, Sudden Rain

Harrisonburg, VA

Last week we had really hot afternoons followed by sudden rain storms. This was the case on Thursday, when I went into the food co-op for a few items and came out as just to a few drops of rain started to fall. I headed toward Main Street to get a picture of a new mural, but first I took a picture of a decorated utility box while I was stopped at a traffic light. By the time I reach the mural, the rain had gotten heavy, but it turned out that  mural was not finished yet.

I decided to pull off in a parking lot and wait for the storm to let up. I took a picture of the rain pelting down on my windshield. I aimed the phone’s camera at a couple of windows to see what they would look like.

Here’s a picture of the incomplete mural from a couple of weeks before that. I suspect that the reason the  artist has not made much progress is that the weather has been inhospitable.
