What am I looking at?!
From Wikipedia:
The Penrose triangle, also known as the Penrose tribar, the impossible tribar,[1] or the impossible triangle,[2] is a triangular impossible object, an optical illusion consisting of an object which can be depicted in a perspective drawing, but cannot exist as a solid object. It was first created by the Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvärdin 1934.[3] Independently from Reutersvärd, the triangle was devised and popularized in the 1950s by psychiatrist Lionel Penrose and his son, prominent Nobel Prize-winning mathematician Sir Roger Penrose, who described it as "impossibility in its purest form".[4] It is featured prominently in the works of artist M. C. Escher, whose earlier depictions of impossible objects partly inspired it.
Waterfall (Dutch: Waterval) is a lithograph by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher, first printed in October 1961. It shows a perpetual motion machine where water from the base of a waterfall appears to run downhill along the water path before reaching the top of the waterfall.
While most two-dimensional artists use relative proportions to create an illusion of depth, Escher here and elsewhere uses conflicting proportions to create a visual paradox. The watercoursesupplying the waterfall (its aqueduct or leat) has the structure of two Penrose triangles. A Penrose triangle is an impossible object designed by Oscar Reutersvärd in 1934, and found independently by Roger Penrose in 1958.[1] -

That seems indeed very random. Am I supposed to be seeing something?

@jolter I'll give you a hint: The American southwest in the summertime.

WARNING!!!
Incase you get thirty in Sharon Vermont, consider this!
Incidentally, this sign is only in the Men’s Room, and not in the Women’s Room according to my wife. Her conclusion was that the women of Vermont are smarter than the men of Vermont.

@ssmith1226 Perhaps they don't have urinals in the womens' room.

Hmm. An urinal in the ladies bathroom in the art building sounds more like an art installation than anything else. Besides, I don't need a urinal in the women's room. Regular toilets work just fine, if you put the seat up.

This is the license plate frame of a car I parked next to this evening. I will never think of knitting in the same way.

A painted electric fuse board lid in Cefalu, Sicily. There are many such there.

Vincenzo, the 89-ear-old barber in Cefalu - quite a fan of classical music. All trumpet players from the Filarmonici di Cefalu get his services free!

Flowery lane, in Cefalu, Sicily... I'll be back there in a couple of weeks!

@J-Jericho
Never will I forget the heat we experienced in Phoenix that June of 1968 when our HS band participated in a marching band competition. It was exactly that same temperature and we marched at 180-200 bpm tempo. Kids were losing their heads temporarily with heat stroke by the time we finished the mile long parade. It was great fun anyway -
@BigDub Cefalu in May is clement - nice sunny weather, but not too hot, with the sea already warm enough... outside dining in the evenings, with wonderful seafood...
My wife, enjoying a sefood platter (with local oysters!) nd the local frizzante wine...
