The Flag & The Octopus

Two great murals. I was told we have new murals here in corpus. Maybe I should find out where they are. I like the flag best...to me it still stands for freedom.

I am always impressed with the talent of these mural artists. The Firehouse one is my favorite. I smiled at the Octopus quote. I like those interesting creatures very much.
