Chalk it Up!

I went on the first day and snapped some shots of folks getting started on their works of sidewalk art. Here are my 3 favorite pictures:

I love this stuff, especially the ones that make you double take because you think there's water on the sidewalk or a giant hole. hope your labor day weekend is relaxing and fun!
