logo'd buses and babershops















I was downtown today and spotted this logo'd bus. I had to do a u-turn so I could snap some pics of it. I wish it were a splitty, but the bay is still cool with the logos. I really love the Bible on the dash. E and I have always talked about how you're dead if you ever get hit in one of these.

I also like the fact that is brings up another one of my interests.... cutting hair or rather the barbershop and barber. There's another lost craft. I used to go see Dewey Roberts when I was a kid; the towns barber. The barbershop was a place where you learned what was going on in town (similar to the coffee shop) and you witnessed a skilled hand along with the tools and techniques of a specific profession. I loved those big chairs, the leather belts, the finely tuned clippers, and the straight razors. Beautiful objects....
