Zen Monday: #197

I don't know.

That's why I post it on Monday. I'm hoping maybe you know.

  1. One of those "lived of quiet desperation," maybe?

  2. "Lives," dammit, "lives." I'm kinda desperate in the a.m. so who knows what'll come out of my fingers.

  8. I hope I'm remembering that correctly. I think it's in the window of the car dealership just west of Hill.

  9. That's not it. I'm going to do some google street view searching to see if I can find it. It's on the north side of Colorado, for sure.

  10. Anon: northeast corner of Colorado and Berkeley.

  11. I can't believe this but I can confirm it is the old Buick dealership from back in the 60's. I worked there for 3 months as a secretary. Amazing.

  12. That got my heart racing.

    Once I found a wooden box beneath the Colorado Street Bridge. I posted a photo of it, perhaps on a Zen Monday. The police contacted me and asked me to lead them to it.

    I have a wild imagination. Of course I think the "send help" sign is facetious or I wouldn't have posted it, but what if...?

  13. Me again....reference comment above about Buick dealership! I really should have said 'I am pretty sure'. The building looks right but those additional arches to the rear seem vague in my memory. Hummmm.

  14. Look at street view here, LOL

    There was a dealership on the northwest corner here. I can't remember if it was Buick or not. It's been closed for a while. Recession. The windows are not as interesting.

  15. Thanks for the link...had a look and I am sure my memory has failed me. Initially, I felt pretty confident I knew that building. 'Send Help.' Ha Ha!

  16. Maybe it WAS a car dealership, and they used to sell Pontiacs and Saturns, and perhaps in earlier years, DeSotos....

  18. Nope. I'm with you: I don't know.

  19. We should stop here. I shouldn't even comment. If you read all the comments through Susan's it's like a little story, with a beginning, middle and end.

    Three Mondays from now will be Zen Monday #200. To celebrate, we're going to have a contest that everyone can enter, and everyone gets to vote on the winner. And there will be prizes!

  20. You are helping them...cheers.

  21. Been a busy few weeks, am just catching up on posts.

    I think Ms M is correct...think it was a Pontiac dealer, then Saturn, then nothing. Buick dealer was further out on Colorado near Fedco (eventually turned into the gazunta Target) in the last 20 years.

    My only thought was "Send Help, I'm a 4x8' sheet of plywood in a rounded archway, I don't have a clue how I'm going to cover it all!".
