We were going to stay home last night. Nothing on the calendar. But a friend was playing vibes in a band performing in the garden of a restaurant on South Congress where the food was supposed to be pretty good. So there we were on South Congress. When we parked I noticed that one of Austin's giant guitars that are sprinkled around town was in front of the Pink Salon and Boutique. Its decoration is kind of spooky. Hmm...now I wish I'd looked to see if the work had a title. These decorated guitar shapes will be around for a while (like the cows or bears or crabs of other cities) and then they'll be sold for charity, I think. There is another up by Guero's as shown here. At least it was still there the other day.

i like the idea of decorated guitars (we had the cows a few summers back) and this one is quite intriguing.
