Black-and-white photograph of a corner brick building with rounded architecture and large windows. A sign reading “Pickle Barrel” is visible at street level. Trees line the sidewalk, a few people are seated outside in the distance, and the scene feels calm and understated in an urban neighborhood

A torn date clings to wire like memory to grief.
The waters rose. The help paused.

The sign stayed dry.
A quiet declaration

A yellow bungalow with a steep roof and wide and shallow dormer behind a stained picket fence.
A green bungalow with a large green dormer featuring a flower and a blue bird medallion. The steep southern Bungalow roof sits over an open porch with three red swings of various eras. Cream-colored cross hatch detailing repeats across the transom window, front windows and atop the dormer's peak.
A dark yellow bungalow with three, twin columns with a cross-like crossbeam between each pair. A garden takes up much of the front yard along with hanging planters under the porch.
A small, light yellow rambler with green shutters, door and foundation below a white scalloped upper peak.
Didn't have a ton of time to explore Memphis earlier this month, but I did manage a nice, albeit hot and humid, walk through Cooper-Young and Central Gardens.
I guess my eye was drawn to the yellow houses.

Three windows lit up in warm white broken up by the art moderne exterior of the Avalon Hotel's green accent lighting.
A green and pink stucco facade in the historic district of St Augustine Florida. A single white cross hatched window with green shutters. Tourists walk down the narrow streets.
A round stained glass window with a white wood frame sits atop a red brick church in the Victorian District of Savannah, Georgia. The street is lined with palms and a large live oak that shrouds the stained glass.
The oldest cabin in the Great Smoky Mountain's Daisy Town with a single red cross hatched window tucked into the unfinished wood logs. A pair of eastern hemlocks tower over the small cabin.
Some of the best windows on our RV relocation Spring Break.
In reverse chronological order: Miami Beach at night, St Augustine's old town, Savannah's Victorian District and Daisy Town in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
