Brass Bowl

Today, the Brass Bowl, like millions of Americans, is remembering those that have paid the ultimate price for our freedoms.

The following pictures were taken at Wickham Park in Melbourne, Florida when the Moving Wall was there recently.

Wardog Memorial

Soldier, rest! Thy warfare o’er,
Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking,
Dream of battled fields no more.
Days of danger, nights of waking.

-Sir Walter Scott

Don’t know if the paint scheme is factory or not.  I’m leaning towards not.

also known as go-fast boats

Yesterday at Cass and Ashley, westbound on eastbound Ashley.  John F. Germany Library is on the right, and William F. Poe Parking garage is on the left.

These colorful little murals adorn the backs of some benches built along a low wall in Fort Cotanchobee Park.   I haven’t been able to find out any information about the artists, so any info would be appreciated.

All these little junction boxes tells me that someone was too cheap to spring for a cable vault.

Of course, if there is more to the story, I’d love to hear it.

Last month, we saw where it appears someone had a Cool Hand Luke moment, and bent some of the new parking markers.   Today, we find a little bit extra, a little dress up, a little bling.  Or it could be telling something to the urban bike riders downtown, I don’t know.  Does this bike appliqué have a functional use?

The outline is screwed onto the post by some heavy duty sheet metal screws, but I don’t think it’s stout enough to lock your bike up with.
