Earnestine and Hazel's

The South Main area, in downtown Memphis has become a lively neighborhood with many shops and galleries, and is served by the Mainstreet Trolley line. This corner caught my eye...I think it was the bright colors of the sign and store front.
Later on, I found that there is a lot of interesting history about this building where Otis Redding... and even Elvis... hung out in the sixties. You can read all about it here.

Yosemite Valley, California

It is hard to describe Yosemite Valley in words or images...I strongly suggest you see it with your own eyes. Half Dome is seen here in the background.

This painting does not fully depict the beauty of this building...there, I said it (City of Monterrey, Northern Mexico).
