The old St. Luke's Hospital has a Walter Sinz 1929 statue carved by the Gandola Brothers. This was also a fountain at one time. People drive by and do not notice how many figures are there. Saint Luke the Evangelist is standing center, on one side there is a nurse, and the other side a woman and infant...and behind him a winged ox (the icon for St. Luke). There is a similar ox on the steps of St. Colman's church.
To-day was the first sunny day with near normal temperatures in more than a fortnight. It was a good day to walk and take pictures.
Baker Mayfield is fading away. Outside the Art Museum there was a chalk festival two months ago, even with all the rain there has been, the outlines of several drawings can be discerned.
David Deming. Stephanie Tubbs-Jones. 2010.
Yesterday the temperature ranged from 26 to 28 degrees Fahrenheit, and the last warm day before that was Election Day (6 November). The scarf warms the sculpture.
