TimTv brings his own style of creativity to the street.   Tim or one of his group is often seen on the street with stilts, Hula Hoops, juggling, and more while interacting with people.   Here, the two ladies had requested a hand for an entertaining escort across Main Street.

Meet Mike and Paula.  They are moving to Greenville, SC and pose here on Main Street ... Photo taken by Denton Harryman and posted on GreenvilleDailyPhoto.com
Last night this couple stopped me on Main Street and introduced themselves. It turns out they are moving to Greenville and contribute part of their decision to the photos shown here on GreenvilleDailyPhoto.com … I am very flattered … Actually, in addition to numerous emails from people planning moves to Greenville, Connie and I have met others visiting or moving to Greenville in part due to our blog … As Jules, from Rabaul (Paula New Guinea) would say. I’m quite chuffed (I had to look chuffed up — it means very pleased and is commonly used in the UK) … PS: This photo was taken in the center of Main Street. There were lights twinkling in the trees, lots of people walking in the sidewalks, and a band playing in the background … best wishes to Mike and Paula.

Visitors from out of town – Alabama license plate

Visitors from out of town.  A license plate from Alabama on Main Street in Greenville, SC.  This photo was taken by Denton Harryman and posted at GreenvilleDailyPhoto.com on 12/13/2008.
Yesterday I noticed an Alabama license plate, on the car shown, and decided to take a photo. Naturally, I wanted to show as much of Greenville as possible as well. Wonderful blue skies … notice the decorative street lamps … notice construction on the left and a roof top condo on the right.

100% wind power – turbines built at GE in Greenville

7 comments

A sign on main street in downtown Greenville, SC.  The sign says Aveda first beauty company manufactured with 100% wind power.  This photo was taken by Denton Harryman and posted at GreenvilleDailyPhoto.com on 4/4/2008.
Although Greenville does not have a lot of wind and I have not seen any wind turbines in the area, Greenville does have a tie to wind as alternative energy. Specifically the General Electric (GE) plant, in Greenville, has focused on the construction of wind turbines … Note that the sign in today’s photo is not as large as it appears. It only about 2 foot by 3 foot in size. To present this very large impression I held my camera relatively close to the sign to take the shot.

A quite night on Main Street

A quite night on Main Street in downtown Greenville, SC This quite scene is very different from what the festivities will be like tonight. The 4th of July celebration is always spectacular and well attended. For those of us who live downtown we can enjoy the crowds, fun, and excitement. And at the same time have the peace of mind knowing that in few days we will have another quite night on Main Street.

PS: The mystery of where the rock staircase leads will be revealed on Saturday.

After it rains

After a rain on Main Street in downtown Greenville, SC Happy mother’s day to one and all. I hope the day is special and full of enjoyment. Click here to see one of my favorite photos of my mother … Be sure and call or hug your mother today.

Today’s posted photo shows a chair on Main Street shortly after the rain ended Friday evening. One of the lessons my mother tought me was to enjoy the rain. I also like this closeup of the chair.
