Louisville is famous as the home of the Kentucky Derby, one of the big annual events in US sports. Years ago the city made available to businesses full-size horse figures which a company was to decorate and then display outside their business location. It was a creative idea and the horses still proudly prance around the city. The Eye Care Institute where I receive treatment has this horse and yesterday I noticed that since the last time I was there, a solar power panel has been added to the back of the horse. Why it was added wasn’t immediately obvious but then I noticed several dark dots on the horse’s left flank and elsewhere. I’m guessing they must be lights of some sort, but adding an obtrusive solar panel seems to negate any aesthetic attraction the lights might have. I’ll have to go back there in the dark to see if my presumption is correct–and if the lights are a positive or negative.
