    Winona is Sioux, meaning first born daughter. Almost 30K people live there your in the big time city now. It is the home and headquarters of Fastenal. It is a Mississippi River town. The Winona Sportsman Club made me a Lifetime member for setting up their website back when my youngest son shot ATA trap. I also shoot eagles there on the river.

    It is a college town and yes there is graffiti take your camera. The bluffs around the river have graffiti on them although it is now outlawed. I recommend you do not climb the bluffs or Sugar Loaf at this time of year, too many people die doing it in the summer as it is.

    There is enough graffiti to go around in Winona. But the bridges especially the undersides are prime targets. Be careful and wear good boots. I even considered making a run over there this weekend LOL. Have a hankering for a piece of triple chocolate pecan pie though so will head up to Red Wing instead. One bridge over the Mississippi River is actually nick named Graffiti Bridge. Just saying...

    While your in Winona Bloedow's bakery is a must. Bacon_Maple_Chocolate_Doughnuts. But they are all good and they have been ranked #1 in the State more than once.

    That’s a tag. He’s marking territory like a less evolved species.

    I figured as much. Those same "tags" all over Opelika. Easy to remove when editing a photo, Ha! Not so easy to remove in real life.

    These new gang bangers just don’t put in the effort old school gangsters tagging. Then it was hard core art and would tag over a guys work was the
    ultimate “f you”.
    Millennials! lol they sign their name and only in black krylon. Old school graffiti was real art! Some of those old guys took 20-30 minutes. They’d hit it Monday and finish over 5 days. It was like a time lapse drawing. Now it’s just some guy named owl or a pitchfork up or down depending on which turf

    I took the drone up for a quick fly but I’m terrible at adjusting it’s camera settings. Will take a look at the few I shot later if I have time
