Tuba

This was my view leaving campus last Friday.

It also happens to be at least the fourth time that I've witnessed this particular person walking up the street with his tuba. I wish you could see a little closer, because there's actually a license plate taped onto the back of the tuba that says (quite appropriately) "TUBA."

I just wish traffic wasn't always so heavy and that I could pull over and chat and find out his story.

And while on the subject of Tubas, check out this story about Harvey Phillips, the "Paganini of the Tuba."
