WITW: The rainy Friday reveal

Anyone who's out and about today, that's too bad. It's chilly and nasty out there, and I've had to venture out to take a picture (more on that in a bit) and cover a house fire. (Those folks are having a much worse day of it than me -- trust me.)

For those of you still inside and tethered to the computer, here's the reveal of Monday's photo:

Yep, that's Fishbones, a restaurant and bar at the corner of Walker and South Elam avenues. No, as you can tell from the weather, that's not the picture I took today.


A record seven of you got this one right:

* Cliff H. Beckwith of Pleasant Garden (and formerly of Greensboro). He recommends the fish tacos and roasted green beans.
* Steve Cauthen of Greensboro
* Brian Heckman of High Point
* Murphy Townsend of Greensboro
* Irene Varney of Greensboro
* Jordan Wagner of Asheboro (Jordan, who used to manage an apartment complex not too far from Fishbones, wins the Quickest Reply award.)
* Gregg Yow of Greensboro

A few other folks who e-mailed me thought it was the Bonefish Grill over at Four Seasons mall. Turns out the Bonefish Grill has one fish over its front entrance:

That's the picture I took this morning in the morning drizzle.

Here's another look at the school of fish (created by local sculptor Lawrence Feir) on the side of Fishbones::

And a tight shot of the swordfish:

For those of you who don't know the restaurant, the fish hang out on the Elam Avenue side of the building. And if you look carefully around the Corner, you'll see more of Feir's work.

Thanks for playing this week. I'll be back Monday with a downtown shot.
