“Diamonds are nice and so are pearls,
but there’s nothing like us pretty girls” (unknown quote)

It has inspired my series of Pretty Girl Posts, so all “Pretty Girl” posts are dedicated to Le Drake Noir.

Peace & Love

At 445 Chalmers Avenue in Winnipeg there is a very large second-hand store; The Kildonan MCC Thrift Shop.

Two sides of the building have been painted into one mural. I started at the street side of the building and made a Slideshow around into the parking lot. The pretty hippie under my text is the final shot of the sequence.
