Photography, sculpture, ink drawings, let your imagination run wild. The other side to the artisans are the renting of art spaces and tiny business areas. They're often quite cost-effective, and a community of artisans has resulted in their various locations (and availability to enter during the pandemic is mixed and limited-- see their website). If art is beauty to you, you'll find something-- maybe many things-- you'll like. Be sure to check the website for pandemic restrictions before you go.

Five artists and titles have been identified in the project and additional art can be seen including Friendly Beasts' door which is painted, but not identified on the plaque mounted on the street side of the building. The first piece on the west side of the building is a brightly colored piece called "Unity is Community" by C D Culper. There are multiple human figures each only having one eye open. The faces also seem to have a second profile face obscuring half of the face directly looking at the viewer. The next piece is the "Entrance to Paradise" by Haider Ali. The small mural covers a doorway and has a beautiful mountain scenic painted. On the north end of the wall is the huge mural called "Wooden Wall of Life" by Adam Long. This piece stretches over several openings in the wall and is done in mostly blues and greens with images of twisted trees and roots that take on human form. Around to the north side of the building is another large mural with a rainbow of colors forming swirls for a background while additional objects seem to float in front. This is called "Sacred Journey" by Sacred Matthews. On the east side of the building by the parking lot is "Hive Mind" by Laura Brikmanis. It depicts a honeycomb with oversized bees crawling around. The art work is so precise that I am guessing she used a template/stencil to create the perfect geometry of the honeycomb grid and possibly on the bees too. It's a great collection of local talent and a way to check out multiple pieces all in one location. Note: To the north of the building is the Bluetip Billiards building that has a colorful mural of pool balls on the side and front. The owner of the business was unable to identify the artist when contacted. Review #2221

Occasionally, there is a nugget of a bargain, but it's too crazy to pick through stuff to find what you might need. Sure, the weekend warrior house restorer will find bargains, but if you value your time at all, picking through the PILES OF STUFF just isn't worth it. Hey management: Wake up!! We appreciate the work you do. Now churn your inventory so we don't have to suffer through the layers upon layers to find the reasonably priced items we need. Please. Find the person who's up-pricing this stuff, take them outside, spank them soundly, and tell them about how the marketplace actually works. Or just shake your finger really hard at them, and say, "It's great to attempt to maximize profits, but what you're doing is really absurd and every shopper I listen to is gobsmacked by how high you price items." Do this now, before the place bulges so hard the walls fall apart.

I needed to get my newly adopted puppies vaccinated for leptospirosis quick because I live on a…read morerural creek property with much wildlife risk. The fastest option I could find was a vaccine clinic run through the Monroe County Humane Association, where they received a first leptospirosis shot from Jim Koch. I hustled them into the car and spent the entire day driving them from Terre Haute to make sure they were protected. However, no one told me a booster was required. Nothing was printed, nothing was on the receipt, and nothing was said verbally even though I presented the shelter vaccination records with at check in. I ASKED what other shots they needed. Nothing. As a result, my dogs were under-protected for months on a creek property where exposure risk is high, and now they have to be revaccinated to catch up. In other words, they were almost certainly exposed when protection mattered most and are now receiving additional doses afterward and at more expense. When I contacted the executive director of the Humane Association, he vaguely said the information had been "available," but could not explain where it had been provided or in what format. Instead of addressing the issue, the response shifted toward suggesting I was criticizing their mission. That misses the point entirely. If a clinic is going to administer vaccinations, owners should leave knowing exactly what boosters are required and when, especially when you present your records and then ask. Otherwise, you're not helping/protecting animals, rather you're creating avoidable exposure risk and animals also over vaccinated too.

Most often this includes the elderly and people experiencing poverty, but there aren't any age or income restrictions. Volunteering is such a tiny time impact it's almost silly. I spend two hours once a month driving to client's homes delivering a hot and cold meal, a smile and a friendly greeting. That's really it. It's so fast and rewarding. I feel good all week about spending those moments with them. And I'm a foodie so I really believe that everyone should have access to good food. This is my small way of making it happen. Route deliveries happen from 11:15ish to 1ish, depending on how many people are on your route and how fast you are. Max route occupancy is 12 so if you have a flexible work environment you can get this done during your lunch break. I've been doing this a few months now and I plan to keep it up for a long time to come. If you're a busy person and looking for a way to give back that won't create havoc on your schedule, MOW is for you!
