This is a delightful town to find artistically evolved benches.
This one was painted by Joseph Melancon. It's located by Word of Mouth Restaurant on the corner of Osprey and Brother Geenan St.
I brought Henrietta the chicken bag with me cause she doesn't get out much.
Happy Bench Monday.
I'll get back to work on my Mini Quilt Monday Project...
see ya later,
