I took Sebastian for walk today, and I found more chalk messages! They were mostly on 2nd and 3rd streets between Orange st and Nun st. I took pics of most of them.
Most of the messages were written on the sidewalk, but a few were on gates, walls and the street.

blanket all around the lake like
a dream where you hover in a
mild stupor through a swamp
during a summer thunderstorm."

This is why I love Wilmington, little things like random sidewalk poetry. The town I grew up in had no culture or imagination whatsoever, just steakhouses and strip clubs (military towns, ugh). Living in Wilmington inspires so many people to do wonderfull things, big and small. Its the small things I love best. :)
A couple days ago I noticed that someone had left me a message during the night, apparantly they like my Galo de Barcelos (Portuguese rooster) that I keep in my kitchen window and decided to let me know.
They also left a note next the welcome bunny between my house and my neighbor's place. I assume the neighbor put it there because I just appeared one day in front of the rail that separates our yards.
I wonder who it was? Maybe I should buy some chalk and write back? ;)
