Rocket Into Spring


Spring here in Texas is FABULOUS!
I pumped up the colors on this sign a bit.  We all need a bit of extra oomph once in a while.

Downtown Dallas

Little Miss and I spent a couple of hours in the Historic District of Dallas the other day.  This is part of the Dealey Plaza.  Those tulips popped up fast, they did not even have buds the week before.
Dallas still has quite a few vintage signs like Grand Prairie does.  
Some time we will come take photographs at night.  I want to be really familiar with the area before then.  I am doing pretty good at being able to maneuver around without the map in the Historical, Government, and Bishop Arts districts already.

Puttin' on the Ritz

I am still lovin' my orange basket from the other day.
Here is one of the signs from the Hi-Ho.  See what I mean?  Totally unrelated, but still fabulous.

Splendid Sign

There is nothing I can say about this sign.  It speaks for itself.

To be honest this building has a lot going on for it.  There are at least four different signs that have apparently nothing to do with each other.  Then again, one does say "girls", so maybe that should be "Hi... Hoe".  Was it a nightclub run by dwarves?

You simply have to love the fact that they made the extra effort to put twinkles in around the words.

Randomness including a Duck with a Do

This Dudley the Duck with a Do.  Does anyone know what kind of duck this is?  I was trying to take a photo of our local egret, but the other ducks scared it off.  It takes more than a flock taking flight to ruffle Dudley's feathers though.
What do you see when you see in the center when parked at the end of a highway cloverleaf?  Why, I spy a sunbathing cat of course!  
Vintage signs from the fifties are all over the place around here.  I love them!  I am going to start collecting photos of them like the fountain photos.  Don't worry, I park the car first.

Some of them have a place of honor like this one, and others are neglected relics.  

YOU have a Sunny Day, and don't forget to look around.  The world is full of wonder and wonderful things.
