I spotted this whimsical mural on the side of the Des Moines Water Works office in Des Moines' East Village this morning. I was passing out flyers for my upcoming program on the history of professional baseball in Des Moines at 3 p.m. Saturday, May 16, at Plain Talk Books & Coffee in the East Village. Hope to see you there. I'll have copies of my latest book for sale too.
