They were filming Tuesday at this house on the corner of College Avenue and 10th Street. I don’t know if the house is occupied or not, but the film crew had taken over for sure.

They were filming at another house on Wednesday, big lights everywhere.

The workers were tight-lipped, but it’s known to be for an upcoming Netflix production.

Found in an Alley – A Little Statue

I spotted this weathered garden statue today of a young girl positioned against a brick wall. The statue has a textured finish, giving it an aged appearance, and it portrays the girl in a standing pose, wearing a bonnet and a dress with a sash, and she is holding what appears to be a basket. The details on the statue are worn, which suggests it has been exposed to the elements for some time. There is a wire or cord of some kind looped on the ground near the statue, and to the left, there are dark patches of soil and possibly some kind of fungi or bark. The bricks behind the statue show signs of deterioration, with chipped paint and eroded mortar, emphasizing the statue’s rustic setting.
