OK, maybe I got here a day too early. The city administrator/Home-Town Dog just gave me my drop shipped brush order and drove me around the mural zone in a Squad car.
All wall sites look exceptional this is a very nice town. He told me the names of each of the Team leaders as he pointed out the walls. Oh,that's the Sonny Franks wall over there, and this one is the Michael Clark wall.
Come on guys get your brush slingin' butts in gear!!!!

OK, this just in. turned down Cornmeal to join him for the TV gig this afternoon over in Champaign. Stayed with Nancy and we rode out to Amish country. We lunched at the Yoder County Kitchen. food was excellent. on the tables they had two jars: Fresh Apple Butter, Amish Peanut Butter. I tried both. I had never actually had apple butter before, but it was not because I had never had the chance. I had never cared for how it looked. to my delight this was like fine apple sauce in texture and had a delightful cinnamin zip. The amish peanut butter was also a treat. I would have to say it was made half way of honey, we really could have used one of those wooden honey dripper things in it. yet it was kinda whipped in texture. The road just west of the Arcola city limits is amazingly beautiful. Horse carriages in front of the Dollar General Store hitching post and all. We were careful not to take photos of the folks as they don't like the whole images thing. I do think they saw me take a shot of the horse and carriage. they did not look pleased but that could have been the typical teenaged girl....Take a picture it will last longer thing. I am not real sure that the Amish folk will come and rub shoulders with us in town but if we venture out to their area, we will want to be on very respectful behavior. This is a very special place.
More to come as it occurs. Oh, The towns volunteers are making progress attaching the poly-metal panels to the buildings.

Just met Mayor Ferguson. He was watching the towns advance crew as they were finishing the installation of the mural panels, all looked well. He said that he has a sister who lives in Woodville, Fl. For the uninitiated that is a mere 5 miles south of my home Tallahassee, Fl. Small world.
