paint the town red -- and black!

 

What is it with black paint?  Just a few weeks ago the business down the street went from yellow to black.  Today the Savoy Shopping Center, a mostly vacant strip mall except for Nothin' Butt Smokes, is being transformed from old brown to red and black.

 



I really wanted to catch the paint spray in the air but better judgment told me not to get downwind to avoid red paint on the camera lens.

 

 

But what really caught my eye as I drove by and prompted a U-turn were the porcelain fixtures on the sidewalk -- excellent place to put one's Coke can!
