Workers began dismantling this clock at the former visitors center at 445 Linden Street on Wednesday. Reportedly, it is being transported to a buyer in another town. The clock previously stood at Columbia's National Watch & Clock Museum.

Look! There's a Tesla Cybertruck.

And there it goes. 

Don't park here.

Down at the river 

The W sign is bent. Why is there a W sign?

It's proper to wipe your mouth after eating.

"See Ya At The Show"

This appears to be two guys looking at a giant cone.

Living Stones fixed the wall at Columbia River Park. 

Piles of new railroad ties were dropped off at many locations along the tracks, most likely to be installed later.

Relaxation's Transportation made another appearance.

The EMA trailer makes a rare public appearance. 

(Most of the time it sits idle down at the borough's public works facility.)

A lot of postal trucks

This one needs repairs.

There's a storm trooper in town.

So is Marilyn Monroe. 

They're at Persian Cat Vintage.

The Canoemobile was back in town, as evidenced by all these canoes.

And there's the Canoemobile staff, out for a ride.

*****************

This streetlight was down - along North Front Street, near Locust. 

In fact, the whole pole was down. 

A vehicle might have hit it, but it was rotted at the base anyway. 

Another pole was hit - on Saturday. 

It was on 16th Street.

In addition to the Albatwitch Day Festival at Columbia River Park on Saturday, many visitors stopped by the All Hallows Oddities Market at Mount Bethel Cemetery. 

Andre Underhill, owner of Rivertowne Trolley, was the driver who transported visitors around town on Saturday.
