Don't worry about the old oaks, they are just protecting themselves and will come back next when the rains come. Oaks have deep tap roots, ours, even young trees, survived 8 years of drought. I know you have had little rain and your temps at the moment are in the 40's C and bound to stress plant as well as animal life. We have summers like that almost every year and the garden somehow still survives.
P.S. Just took a peek at your ICAD page. How very nice! wish I could comment on them individually but there is no comment line. Looks like a fun activity and you made some nice ones!
Hi there - I think these stencil artists are great. Some people seem to think that it is vandalism - but do they really think that the grey metal box in your picture is not better looking with a dog on it?!

Oh I think he is adorable!!!! Yes all paintings of flowers are from my garden, which bloomed so very late this year!
Who are these clever artists? and why don't I think of these things?!
Thanks for sharing the fun.
Happy week too!
Nice one!

that's pretty neat. i hope they have more of those.
I love little bits of street art here and there. So much fun to spy a little surprise!
Street art! I love it, even if it can be mysterious! This is fun. I will rename my fridge the Coolidge!
Cute!! This is interesting because we have several of these boxes around downtown painted and graffitied too! I should snap 'em and show you :).
I love stuff like this! What a sweet world we live in! Thanks for your visit to my blog! I see we both like tea!

OK I love the street art -- but I don't understand the Coolidge reference quite.
I scrolled down a ways and loved the posts -- (this is my first visit) and pictures. Only now I am hungry for dim sum.
I like that. Brightens up the control box.
Cute street art, I love the puppy dog. Great find and photo.
Love it!! I would be so excited to find something like that around here; may be worth a trip downtown to treasure hunt (when it cools off, anyway :D).
That is so much fun! Someone has a great sense of humour.
That's fun and a great find. Much better than the typical graffiti.
I love the street art! How fun to come across one like this! Delightful capture for the day and a fun look at your world!! Have a great week!

This is a cute, surprise painting to come across, Snap. It's a goodname for the virtual puppy. ;)
Maybe that's where Coolidge marked his spot! I do adore how people fit art into everyday objects - one of the best places to find art!
Hi Snap, I love the idea of street art. Although we do not have one like yours.
He is a cutie, and love his name.
Is he the president reincarnated?
Cute little guy, isn't he???? What a nice painting.... Love the name you picked out.
Hugs,
Betsy
That dog has shown up on similar boxes in our neighborhood too. I wonder what that means.
Those utility boxes need a bit of art and this is a nice example. Sortof Banksy looking.
What a great little drawing!
something to make the pedestrians smile.:p
Beautifully painted... almost looks embossed.
He is adorable! Wonderful street art.

Awesome! Looks like a guard dog to me :-)
