Close Encounters

Took a long walk today. Observed the following:

A young girl carrying pink flowers and singing "Happy Birthday."

An old man wearing a black baseball cap that said "USS Clifton Sprague."

A man loading a gold-painted statue of a naked woman in an obscene posture onto the back of a pick-up truck. Immediately followed by:

A white Virgin Mary statue in a blue "bath tub" style shrine.

A man wearing a gas mask, standing in the doorway of a dilapidated house.

I saw all of these things on the first half of the walk, but nothing notable on the way back. That may be because I was tired and no longer so perceptive. I seem to see more unusual things when I set my mind to it.
