April 19, 2015, Prescott- I spent about half the day in meetings and a couple of acts of service. Still, my mind fell into a funk, because of the suffering endured by some dear families and because of various critics, both here and in the Phoenix area, whose venom keeps playing in my head, though I know it’s wrong of me to buy into their negativity.
Chalk It Up, an annual art festival here in Prescott, and associated with Earth Day, is the perfect mood lifter. I present several of this year’s entries, without commentary, so that you might get some enjoyment out of the gallery, as well.
With this little tour, and a small dish of frozen yogurt, all the sorrow melted away. It doesn’t take much.
that is some really nice chalk art. I’m glad you’re working to stay positive, Gary.

Very nice, Gary. I think my two faves are the admonition to Be Perfectly Imperfect, and the squaw with papoose. The next to last one also is very creative and imaginative! Stay the course and don’t let the negativity get to you!

Had to look up that one! When the words were broken down, I have heard that theory — and it makes ultimate sense to me!. Still a very imaginative art piece representing the concepts!
