Ladee's Travels

The buildings are very colorful and I find the cats painted on walls and planters to be a delight.  Here are more views of the shops as we walked down the street.  This house on the hill with the tire walls caught our attention.

A town wide project to paint cats throughout.                 Miami-based artist Marianne Collins remembers getting up around 5:30 a.m. and painting until it got too hot each day for months on storefronts, doorways, planters, and trash bins around Miami's historic downtown. Her objective? To line the streets with 121 original painted cats and other creatures. (Source: http://www.globemiamitimes.com/cats-of-miami/ ) We had a fun time finding a few of the 121 cats.
