Providence sucks

Sorry for my almost 3 week delay in posting.  Local tragic news events of the first week of August involved a friend and her children and I couldn't focus on much of anything, let alone a bad mansard blog.

Then we went on vacation.  We stopped in Columbia for gas and I made the huge mistake of telling John to stop on Providence for gas.  We missed the gas station near 70 and I told him to keep going south on Providence for gas.  What was I thinking?  Providence just south of Broadway is just nasty.  It was a dump in the early 1990's and seems even worse now.

But here's a bad mansard.  A trend if you will- pay day loan shops in bad mansard buildings.

More mansards to come as well as some vacation pictures.

Go Greek! Delta Tau Bad Mansard

Down round the corner, here on Rollins street...

I am so sorry to make fun of the mansard roof line at the Delt house at Mizzou.  A few of my friends married Delts and they are nice guys.  BUT!  the mansard is bad.  There seems to be a Greek bad mansard on every college campus.

About this photo.  I was in Columbia in court and went to visit a dear friend during lunch.  As I drove down Providence I remembered the bad mansardness of the Delt house, made a quick left turn and stopped in front of my old sorority house and took the picture.
