Traveling through the mountains of North Carolina this summer I have been trying to stop and appreciate most of the small towns I go through. I stop and check out the stores, restaurants, parks, etc... Every once in awhile I run across something that makes me just smile. Yesterday was one of those days. Sunday is not a day for commerce in the South. It is a day for families, church, and food. Hitting the main streets are always good photography days. No one is downtown and the streets are pretty much yours. I ran across these examples of public art in a small town that has been supported by the furniture buisness. All along main street where ever they could they had some wonderful local art. I loved the caged piece. The sculpture on the bottom was a winged bird. The flower assemblage was made up of all sorts of nice rusty pieces. But the huge bird was my favorite. So overpowering, made of all sorts of different types of wood - just like the chairs and tables made here.
