Good one!!! Maybe Norm can supply the paint. I wouldn't hold my breath.

A definite urban renewal project is needed badly. Start by maintaining St. Barbaras church once that thing goes so will the rest of the 2nd ward that already hasn't.

I tried cool Caribbean colors to punch up the mood for all the kids I seen out front.I bet coming home to a beautifully,brightly colored house would make them smile even in the dead of winter.It's a picture to lighten anyone's mood that can see past the problems into the solutions.
A little friends,a little paint and a lot of love.
I like to call it Visions of Hope~

Then once the graffitti is added it will look like a kindergarden art project. That looks nice if it stays clean and kept.

Thanks Rhiannon.I don't remember seeing a lot of graffiti in that specific area.
If there are graffiti artist in the area,they could be helpful in creating building art.

I always loved looking at the Graffitti Art on Elmwood when Freeland painted the Strip... I though it added to the culture of the area.

I'm busy with my house and kids,my neighbors work a lot so it's hard to get to talk with everyone.
Flyers to pass out would make it so much easier.I read some good info from the National Wildlife Federation about planting area friendly plant specimens.

There is a ton of information out there on how non native plants can have a destructive impact on not just us but our entire world.
Both Tift Farms and Botanical gardens are area experts on botany
Could we get a speaker to help?

I've had an abundance of ladybugs in my yard before,is Botanical gardens having them seeded?
Is that environmentally safe?
I seen rat trap boxes at Tift farms is that safe for wildlife?
Do we have experts?
A giant dust bowl from improper agriculture?
The dust bowl of the great depression

It's funny how much the planet mars resembles a great dust bowls in ways.
Or so I've heard from some guy online that said he was an astronaut lol..You never know though,he might have been just full of it.
