Right There all Along

Have you ever done something so routine and noticed something you'd never noticed before? Something you can't believe you didn't see before?

I drive by the building below every time I take Gus and Cotton to doggy sniff/run/bark, say at least 3 times a week. And when I first moved to Atlanta years ago, I read an article about some mythical creatures called Whimbles that I liked so much I never forgot their names. And when I moved to this part of town, I noted the gallery was in the building below.

Shortly after that, the artist relocated, but almost every time I drive by, I think about the Whimbles and that I should go visit the gallery.

On Saturday, I took Gus and Cotton to doggie sniff/run/bark, which is not one of their usual days for the class.

And I saw something I'd not noticed over the last couple of years:

A Whimble Weather Vane.

I stopped in the small park across the street from the building and took this photo. I'm not sure how I missed it, but it made Saturday special to see it for the first time.
