This stunning #crapeMyrtle brightens an otherwise vacant lot. From the shape, it appears someone may still be maintaining it.

I enjoyed walking these blocks today. Great people and so many brilliant things to see in the Mound. Never let anyone tell you #Memphis doesn’t matter.

The #NationalGuard was in #OrangeMound. Doing what, I couldn’t tell you, aside from wasting our tax dollars because #BillLee wants to look tough for Daddy #Trump.

Imagine if those tax dollars were spent fixing up homes, or building more community gardens in the numerous vacant lots nearby…

Speaking of #community #gardens, this one takes up several lots on a corner and features apple trees, vegetables, even a chicken coop! I couldn’t tell who built or maintains it, but it’s a wonderful use of land.

A memorial for someone named Big Courtney. This right here is community, people who care about each other.
