Murals in The Market

I love Detroit’s Eastern Market district.  Every year they hold the Murals in The Market festival where they bring over 50 of the world’s best graffiti artist to paint amazing murals on the surrounding buildings.  The result is an exterior museum that’s open to everyone and art exhibits that change on an annual basis.  I’ve visited this location numerous times.  The quality of the murals is top notch.  

This mural was painted by BMike Odums and Rick Williams last September.   At first, I was disappointed with the truck parked in the way, but the more I looked at my photo, the more I liked it sitting in front of the mural.  The colors of the truck match the mural and you get an idea of size.

1942 Chevrolet Class 125 Airfield Crash Truck

This was built for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to be used at Robins Field (now Robins Air Force Base) to fight aircraft crash fires and to help rescue victims.   While I was visiting my friend Tony and his family in Georgia, we went to Robins Air Force Base Aircraft Museum.  Tony is a firefighter (and I used to do the same job in my former life) at the base, so we were drawn to this antique fire truck.  I am posting this picture tonight for Tony.  Hope he likes it.
