On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

#ManholeCoverMonday Extra large one in Oak Park, Illinois
Large manhole in a grassy area. Around the outside there is a pattern of stamped squares and the words "East Jordan Iron Works" and "Made in USA." The center is a typical manhole cover spiderweb design, with four embossed fish on it and the words "Dump No Waste Drains to Waterways."

Final update on Calle República de India doings.

It's been a bit like witnessing the birth of a star, watching this new manhole cover come into being. Appreciate the suggestion of a halo and the leafy garnish.

MHC in the form of a small metal door painted red and surrounded by fresh concrete. Matching reddish leaves scattered about.

Rugged-looking manhole cover in a design I don’t recall having seen before. Courtyard of Robie House. @robertloerzel.bsky.social @kathleenmrooney.bsky.social @jjtindall.bsky.social @kevinirvine.bsky.social
Circular bronze colored manhole cover, set in white concrete pavement. It has a circular indentation in its center, raised studs randomly arrayed, and four upside-down U cutouts symmetrically around its edge.
The answer is Florida! Thanks for playing.
