Ka'anapali dreamin'
This colourful scene decorated the wall of one of the lanai buildings we passed on the Ka'anapali (Maui, Hawaii) walkway where we got a bit of exercise each morning before the sun got too warm.

Happy 100th - Calgary Stampede!
These murals from the Calgary Stampede grounds helped celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Calgary Stampede, July 6 - 15, 2012 (photos recently in from my Alberta correspondent / mural chaser, Ramona Heikel)
These murals were only a portion of the public art on display at the
Calgary Stampede this year. The Stampede Public Art site
features many other pieces. Clicking on the images on that page will, in most
cases, whisk you to pages of large photos and descriptions of the mural
or sculpture featured.
