CITY DAILY PHOTO FEBRUARY THEME - MOTORS

 

Seen at a custom motorcycle shop on the edge of a flea market. There is a lot of horsepower ready to roar out of this engine but that conical spike thing looks scary. The bike obviously isn’t finished but you won’t see me riding it.                       

ICE QUEEN AND KING

Posing for family pictures at the Loop Ice Carnival. There are always stilt walkers. Hard for me to comprehend, given my wobbly state of balance. (I had a physical therapy gait and balance evaluation yesterday and they said I could use some work.) I like the cotton snowballs on the man’s hat.                  

CHAIN SAW

 

There is always an ice sculpture demonstration at the Loop Ice Carnival. It looks like they start with a block and etch a pattern into it. I wish I had been there later in the day to see the 3-D finish work.                       

POLITICAL OPINION

 

Seen along the route to my granddaughter’s school. The vehicle never moves. Note the license plate. Personalized plates are cheap in Missouri. Interpret as you will.                         

SOMEBODY FIND A WARMING SHELTER

 

Saint Louis, King Louis IX of France, and his steed look like they need more than a horse blanket.The statue, seen here a number of times over the years, is called The Apotheosis of Saint Louis, standing in front of the art museum and overlooking Art Hill.
