Fun on the White Rock Path

One of my regular routes to the grocery store and library takes me along the paved pedestrian/bike path that follows NM highway 4. I also take the southern section of the path at the end of most mountain bike rides on the DOE trails south of town.

[On a pedestrian/bike path, one of the black crack repairs is shaped like a grand piano. Someone has added a black and white keyboard and MAKE MUSIC done in blue tape] A few days ago, a very clever art piece appeared on that southern section. Someone had noticed that some of the copious crack filling seams were shaped like a grand piano, and had added a keyboard and the words MAKE MUSIC.

But it turns out the piano was just the tip of the iceberg.

Riding back from the market today, we discovered that section of the path sports a whole collection of fun, whimsical artworks. The piano is merely the last in the series (and still my favorite). [A pedestrian path with BEGIN written across it in yellow tape] [DANCE HERE written in purple tape on a pedestrian path] [a hopscotch made of blue and orange tape on a pedestrian path] [On an asphalt path, KISS HERE in yellow tape surrounded by a red heart outline] [MAKE A WISH on a pedestrian path, done in blue tape surrounded by a green tape diamond]

I love this town!
