This afternoon I ran an errand in Strasburg and Charlie came along. I decided to stop by the Visitor Center on Hupps Hill to take a picture of the redbud grove. But first, I spotted a painting on the back of a trash enclosure.

Three years ago, I photographed the front of this box. Since then, it has been exposed to exhaust fumes and dirt from the parking lot, which is just a few yards away.
Some painted critters have appeared, a big caterpillar and a brilliant snail.
Charlie and I walked to the redbud trees. There’s an interpretive trail that goes in front of them. Charlie stopped to investigate the signs.
Here’s a close-up of the sign on the left. You can view the older sign, How Strata Shaped Strategy. on HMDB. It is one in a series telling about the caves here and the role that Hupps Hill played in the Cavil War.
Signal Knob is visible in the distance. I also took a picture of the flowering pear tree in front of the visitor center.
The caterpillar and snail are so cute. Lovely flower mural. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Linda.
