I Missed the Peach Festival!


Darn it, I'll bet the Peach Festival is a whooping good time, but I was a month too late!  I think it's wonderful that some talented artist was commissioned to paint a tribute to the Peach Festival on the outside wall of a Weatherford, Texas, restaurant.  It shows a lot of civic pride in the town's activities.  I also like how the banner encircles a picture of the Parker County Courthouse, which was just across the street from this sign.

Beautifully done! The only draw-back? Now I'm craving peach cobbler with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Very nicely put together sign. Lovely colors.

I am ready for my slice of peach pie.

it's really pretty. i wonder if they just paint a new date on it each year. :)

If the courthouse looks anything like the painting, it's a beauty!

Thats a beautiful sign and it makes me think of a small town in South Carolina that has turned their water tank into a giant peach!

Hmm, looking at this very nice painting makes peach flavor coming out of my laptop....
Have to look what kind of fruits I have to eat NOW.

Awesome...maybe some day years from now a lovely lady of a certain age will take a picture of the ghost writing that this mural may become. :)

I hope they keep the mural and just change the date each year.

Lovely capture and I agree it is a great looking courthouse.
