From Kenton, Ohio, 1996:

See the top of the building? There’s a lion hiding there.

In 2006, a decade later….movin’ on up…

movin’ on up….

…then coming into focus…

I don’t know what this building used to be, or why the lion head adorns it.

I don’t even know when it was cleaned and painted.

I do know it’s the pollution, however, that causes the discolouration…

It’s been 4 years since I’ve been back to Kenton, and I wonder if the building is still standing, if the lion is still there, gazing at the Court House, keeping watch over the city.
