Street arts

Happy Hump Day, amazing people! How are you all doing? Recently, the atmosphere has been strange in my little area on the beach and in the farmland. Perhaps just the weather is to blame. I hope all is well.

Anyway, I mentioned in my earlier posts that we had to pay my deceased aunt a visit at her home, which is less than an hour away from ours. Everything has changed since I last visited the town of Quirino, Bacnotan, La Union, more than a decade ago. The area is considered to be part of our province's pebble area and is well-known for its pretty beaches, coral reefs, and surfing spots. Quirino is pretty much the same as my hometown of San Juan, La Union, which is known as the surfing capital of the Northern Philippines.

Even though that region is more rural than my town, which is a popular tourist destination, I was surprised to see murals on the street walls. I'm unsure whether this was painted by the local government unit or by the factory behind it; all I know is that it looks cool and gives life to a boring wall. I saw a mural with the word "Holcim" on it. Since that is the cement factory, it might belong to them. Street art is something I enjoy. These people make all kinds of fun for us for free, and they don't expect to be noticed. These great artists deserve recognition. I just think that if we just let our creativity run wild, there is so much talent everywhere. It was enjoyable to look at those murals.

I had to take a few pictures before we went to my aunt's wake, and my mom and daughter did the same when we were about to go home. Enjoy, and thank you for stopping by.
