These photos were taken locally, by a local resident, me. They are in black and white because we are in a depression and I can't afford color any more. These pictures may be offensive to those who live in the burbs or those who live in warmer climates.
They saved Mickey's dinner, sometimes the little guy does win. The 1940's art deco street car stood in the way of progress but the City of St. Paul in their infinite wisdom made the insurance company stop building so Mickey's could stay.
The man sits on the bench on West 7th plaza in downtown St. Paul, eating a bagel. The white speckles on the bench are pigeon poop. It is on the bench because there are a lot of pigeons on the plaza eating bagel crumbs.
W.A. Frosts on the corner of Selby and Dale. You just can't get any more St. Paul than this. They have a lovely patio but I didn't bother taking a photo because it is winter and no one is using it.
One of the lovely homes in St. Paul in the cathedral hill neighborhood. The roundish thingy to the left is the cathedral. This photo screams St. Paul so you might want to cover your ears.
Hardware on a brick building downtown. When I stopped to take this shot the people I was with thought I was kind of nutty. They have probably thought that for a long time now but the truth is I will stop to take a photo of a random water valve from time to time.
I love where I live even though there is pigeon poop and it is cold out and I can't afford color any more.
