It's back!!!

We have some interesting neighbours on our street. Particularly, there are two brothers who live on the other side of the street a few houses from us. One of them is a collector of all things that people throw away. They like to ornament their property with various said found items. Anyhow, a few years ago they built this huge dove out of some kind of aluminum tubing which is outlined with strip lights. Above the dove it says Peace and below it says Only. It's quite the holiday decoration. The first year he hung it off of the second level of their house and there was a big stink about it because it was shining into the neighbour's window all night and they couldn't sleep - reminiscent of the Kenny Rogers chicken sign episode on Seinfeld! Also, they left it up long after Christmas which some neighbours were upset about - and were eventually forced to take it down. Well, it's back again for the holiday season - this time, just on their front lawn.

  • Perhaps not the ideal time to be selling property around that street.

  • I am so happy. I love the peace dove. Also I'm happy that I don't live across the street from it...
