Steer Horns

 

8/4/26 Maple Leaf neighborhood

In the nearly 40 years that I have lived in Maple Leaf, I’m almost certain I had never before seen a pickup with steer horns on the hood in these parts (at right). Even more unexpected? The driver who appeared as I was finishing the sketch was wearing dreads.

It just goes to show: Whatever stereotypes I might hold about vehicles or their drivers might be very wrong.

The rest of these walk-sketches are less surprising but no less worthy of observation.

shelter under a tree, where I thought I'd sketchwait it out. 
Unfortunately, my "umbrella" sprang a leak! And apparently Pentel Sign pens contain water-soluble ink.)
