Photo Challenge #29

This weeks challenge:

Enjoy getting out and searching for graffiti!

(graffiti can be anything that is writing- whether painted, scratched, or by other means- where it is not allowed- i.e. bathroom stalls, underpasses, bridges, road signs, etc...)

This weeks was fun for me! I instantly knew of 1 spot that I wanted to take shots. And I think they turned out pretty well!

These 2 were taken up north at our cottage in West Field. In the good ole days of outhouses, there was a tradition that when you were taking care of business, you would jot a note on one of the walls in the outhouse. Well, those days are over, but we can't let go of the walls of the outhouse because of the memories that are written on it. I tried to find one that had to do with me specifically, and I found the one that noted my very first trip up north, but it was way back in a dark corner and it didn't turn out well. I'll include it at the bottom so you all can see!! I was only a month old when I made the trip! :-) The first one is the inside of the door that would face you as you sat. The second one is the left wall as you sat. We had a few good artists in the family! It's fun to read some of the other things that are written, as well! They'll give you a good laugh!

This is a picture of Hawley Environmental. It's a school located on Hawley and Wells in Milwaukee. There's an entire wall dedicated to a teacher that had passed away, and I couldn't not take a picture of it. The colors were amazing! So it's technically supposed to be there, but it's painted kind of graffiti style...ish!

Bonus Pictures!!
