Main Street
This morning on the way to school Kim and I saw huge icicles hanging down from this woman's balcony on Main Street. We see so many amazing things each morning on Main Street that I vote we get a camera (disposable, even), get out earlier, maybe, and take pictures of the random things in Enterprise at 7:50 in the morning on Main Street. It'd be a great collection, full of glossy classic cars from the 50s, a truck whose bed was filled with bales of hay that were for sale, beautiful self-made icicles hanging from an apartment balcony encased in wrought iron, New Orleans style. There's so much more. Of course there's always the Boll Weevil (bwhahaha) monument. . . On the drive to school we also spied men SALTING THE STREETS (snow??????), which is something you NEVER see here. We were both like, "Yaaaaay!!!" I don't think I should feel dorky for this outburst, either. It's better not to lose your childlike wonder over such simple yet monumental things, rather than to become jaded and not even notice.
