See Black Rock City

It was a simple, yet elegant idea.. and it stared the local Chattanooga burners in the face. It came from Atlanta, and although this was my only picture, I felt it was worth sharing and providing some levity to the negative tone of Flutterby lately. For those of you that have not visited, one of the oldest and most classic tourist traps of the SouthEast is Rock City and it is famous for birdhouses and barns painred up just like this one. We laughed and we cried when it went by.

As someone who actually went so far as to buy the book "Rock City Barns" (a fantastic set of photographs of the dying "See Rock City" slogans and the decaying buildings they're painted on), this makes my day. And I'm not even a Chattanoogan!

Once you dig yourself out from the various happenings back there, I want a travelogue! Specifically, what's up with the truck in the water? And we obviously need a Flutterby Elvis[Wiki] day.
