Mom's Butterfly

If you live in Decatur I'm sure you've noticed their latest gimmick: iron butterflies. Oh yes. We can NOT be different from Nashville, New York City, or even Naperville. IL which I hear has dragons. Decatur has put up butterflies painted by local artist who donated their time and sponsored by local businesses. I think it's a racket, but it's a pretty one. So anyway, here is my Mom's beautiful work:




I you want to see it for yourself - and I KNOW you do - it can be found at the corner of Jackson and 8th.

    That is beautiful! Your Mom did that?

    As much as I love butterflies, I think we will move to Naperville! We love dragons!!

    That is awesome! Billy and I saw one the other day and we figured it was the same thing, like the horses we always see in Kentucky- Billy's aunt did the same thing for Ft. Myers, painting pelicans for the city- cool!

    The link to the pelican site, but they don't have any pics. That's kind of weird..

    Thanks Billy! There are pictures under the artists section. I think the butterflies may be even prettier though... not that I'm bias...
