Aug. 19, 2017: Restored Selz Royal Blue mural in Chadron, Nebraska. Selz Shoes was a Chicago area shoe brand founded by Morris Selz in 1871. Faded Selz Shoe murals are still visible on many old buildings in the Midwest. I found this mural in an alley painted on a two-story building currently housing the Fryday's 120 Bar and Grill.

On October 3, 2016, visitors tour the Maryhill, Washington, Stonehenge replica that occupies a hill overlooking the Columbia River. The Maryhill Stonehenge is a full-size replica of the original Stonehenge located in England. Construction of this replica by businessman Sam Hill began in 1918 and finished in 1929. The Maryhill Stonehenge is a monument to local soldiers killed in World War I. Unlike the original Stonehenge; this one's made with reinforced concrete.
