Monday Mural - Blacksburg

(click photo to enlarge)

WooHoo! I get to participate in Monday Mural today! I don't see many murals around here but on Saturday we drove to Blacksburg for the day and I saw a couple of great murals...and I'm even more excited because when I was getting this post ready, I found this YouTube video of the artist talking about this very mural! How cool is that?!!

Oh, and for those of you who were wondering how my mall trip went on Black Friday, it really wasn't too bad. I about had a stroke when I drove up and saw the parking lot, and this was at about noon...but I was able to find a spot up close in my regular place I park so I was already happy...then I just had to take Braden and Dalton into Hibbett's for their basketball shoes. Christian left us to do a little of his own shopping. The boys and I were done within a half hour. I texted Christian to tell him we were done and he met us at the car. So all in all, we were in and out of there within an hour. But Christian had gone into American Eagle and said that place was crazy packed...luckily we didn't have anymore shopping to do. I dislike Black Friday!

  1. Thanks for the trip report to the mall. I kinda thought it might be like that. Anyway, you're a survivor. And you got a cool photo of a mural to boot.
