The Murals in Bonifay Florida
Last weekend we took a spur of the moment drive down to Pensacola and across the coastline to get some sea air in our lungs. We went a different way than we normally go, off the freeway. This took us through Eufaula and little towns like Bonifay Florida. We will have a full post with…

Photowalk on the Streets of Opelika
A few weeks ago, I had been watching some of Matt Day’s videos on YouTube. He lives in Chillicothe, Ohio, which he describes as the middle of southern Ohio where, photographically, nothing really happens. It’s not New York or Los Angeles, but small-town America. Despite this, he’s been photographing the area for years and says…

Christmas Lights and the Opelika Library Mural
Last week I had the chance to stop by the new Opelika Library to take a few images of their Christmas decorations. The “Welcome to Opelika” mural is probably one of my favorite in town. So bright and colorful. The Christmas decorations look beautiful from the road as you drive by, but it was nice…

Written on the Walls Behind Bars, Part 1
An abandon building that holds children in prison for various delinquencies, many of whom are spending and have spent years there. While this building wasn’t being used, the overall facility was still quite active with over 150 children housed on the property. The photo of the father has L-O-V-E written across his face, which will…

Toomer’s Corner National Championship Mural
This is sort of just a random photo of the day for Sunday. The truck broke after church today so instead of my normal routine after the last service was over I headed to our favorite local mechanic’s parking lot to drop the truck off and headed (on foot) for Toomer’s Corner and lunch at…
