946 Cholla Drive, Safford, AZ January 26, 2011

The placement, documentation and photograph of cowboy and indian icon art piece #80 on the fence separating home from Mt. Carmel Missionary Baptist Church was the most fun. Why? Repetitive eye candy formulated in precision rows - not a painted white stone, orange and red reflective plastic rectangles or clear and turquoise colored lighting cover was a 10th of an inch out of place. The gravel, each and every piece, covered the entire courtyard and driveway appeared to be put in place according to nuance of color. In the middle of this "courtyard" is a life size covered wagon and a toilet made out of white porcelain and horse shoes.
A senior citizen couple live there. Is it a case of being bored in retirement or have they been this way all their lives? What ever the answer may be, it’s still a fun place to take my out-of-town guests for a bit of eccentric sightseeing.
