Crape myrtles and magnolias frame the facade of Selma City Hall, and across the street these pretty pinks practically glow in the late evening sun.
Click the photo to enlarge, and you can see the municipal fountain on the far right. Just to the left of it is the Civil War Era Brooke Cannon. (Note that it's pointing north!)
In the good old hot summertime, Selma has a lot of shady lanes. Huge oak trees and a few others shield sidewalks and homes from much of the sun's rays.
(A "cold front" moved through yesterday, and we have cooled off to temperatures well below 100 and lower humidity. It's cool outside right now!)
The heat index in Selma is forecast at 110 F today, so what better way to attempt a cooldown than to post a black and white photo of the horsehead fountain on Water Avenue!
