It's nice to know the pictures came in handy.
As I may have mentioned in here, I've been going through the tens of thousands of pictures I've taken over the past two-plus decades. Every so often, I'll see one I think I might have a use for, and set it aside in a computer folder. Over the weekend I noticed that I seem to have set aside a fair amount of pictures with a certain theme, which led my brain to shoot into overdrive, which then resulted in my TV piece last night about “urban art”.
Have I ever mentioned my brain (like the rest of my life) is weird?

Over the years, whenever I've seen something interesting, be it sidewalk art, a poem scribbled on a stop sign, or something totally unique--
I've taken a picture of it. As you can imagine, I've accumulated quite the collection of what I call (for no particular reason) “urban art”, which made it quite easy to put together the TV piece. But as I mentioned in it, that's one of the great things about living in the UP, and in Marquette, specifically. It's an area filled with artistic talent, and those artists, no matter how offbeat they may be, are not shy about sharing their creations.
And we're insanely lucky because of that.
So if you're curious as to what some of the those pictures of are like, just check out the entire piece. And then, as you're out & about the next few months, see how many you can examples of “urban art” you can spot on your own!
