Thanks to Facebook friends who posted these over the years. I know I'm used to posting art over on my art blog, but with time out for hospital stay, everything is happening here this week.

  3. Hi Barbara, Love your family history photos and stories. I find my history interesting too but even most of my immediate family doesn't seem interested... :( As for murals, so many small and mid-size towns are into murals on buildings in the downtown areas. As for me, I've always been fascinated by the WPA murals in post offices across America. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

  4. I have probably seen that one in Detroit. It was a long time ago, but there was a big mural like that.

  6. Great murals by a well known artist. I'm also into genealogy, and spend ages searching through online records. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Barbara.

Thanks for commenting! I tried moderating, thinking that would be a quicker way to check on comments, but actually it takes more time. So go ahead and talk amongst yourselves, and I'll check in when I can!!
