The Pony doesn't paint bowls of fruit. But he sometimes takes an artsy-fartsy picture with his phone while out on the mail route.
I'd say this was a victim of the recent 2 inches of rain we received on Tuesday. But thinking about it, maybe not. Rushing water would not likely trap a ball full of air. Surely it would have floated along on top. So maybe some kid was just practicing soccer. Or the ball was washed away at the end of the storm's aftermath, and floated along a shallow stream of water to its current resting place.
So many scenarios. Only one truth.

I'm guessing it was just washed away and floated into the drain opening. It makes a nice photo.
Is that the opening to a drain? I can't tell WHAT it is.
Perhaps The Pony will create a coffee table book featuring the sights he sees on his route. Obviously, NOT a coffee table book that looks like a coffee table.
River,
Yes, the roiling floodwater couldn't have trapped it there, because it's too buoyant.

Sioux,
Yes, it's a pipe that runs under the pavement to drain the water. Are you all walking around in ankle-deep water in the city? This is not a recent invention, Madam!
You don't even want know what the last picture he took involved! But I might blog about it so you don't miss out on such a treat...
A child somewhere is mourning the loss!!
Kathy,
I thought about that when I was in Country Mart a few hours ago, and they had a display of those balls.
