Now that's what we call ART

Now that we got several of our sites out of the way, our first big chunk of driving had approached. Luckily, I knew, that there was going to be something fabulous waiting at the end of this next 3 hour portion of our drive.

No one else knew what we had in store, but I am happy to announce that it did not disappoint!
Must see # 8: Bubble Gum Alley - - San Luis Obispo, CA
We write our epitaphs on walls with gum, And though it may be meaning less to some, We have a symbol of our gummy youth, Whose walls may not tell some glorious truth, But eloquently speak of better times, Of cruising, shopping sprees, and nursery rhymes. If gum is all you see upon our wall, Your mind is closed, your spirit shrunk and small, Though memories of youth may never last, Gum Alley is our present to our past.
I guess this just goes to show, that anything can be considered a work of art!
We came, we chewed, we created, we captured, and then. . . we left.

Yes... totally gross and totally hilarious. I love the mission statement found at this gum alley. I love how you came, chewed, created, and then left. I bet the kids, especially Cayden, found the thing perfect. Love, Aunt Gail
