Burlington mural

Yesterday we went to the church street marketplace in downtown Burlington, Vermont to check out the mural that was just finished called Everyone loves a Parade. It is so cool!

It runs the whole side of the alley from the marketplace parking garage exit to church street and was done by a French tromp l'oeil artist.

Samuel Champlain who discovered this region leads the parade.

There are many familiar faces of burlingtonians and Vermonters from the last 400 years.

Mayors present and former (they forgot Bob Kiss) oops ;-)

Phish

 

And of course Ben and Jerry (what's Elvis doing there?)

Is he alive and well and living in Burlington?

If you are in the area, this mural is worth the trip (and the first two hours in the parking garage is free)

So it won't cost you a dime;-)

  2. Wow! We have three here in baton Rouge, la. But not anywhere near as spectacular as this!

    We want to come to Vermont and see the colors change one year. I keep adding that to the pot of where to go next.
