I found these Red Stairs while walking along the River Walk in San Antonio early one morning - I can only imagine what affect seeing these stairs has on people after they have enjoyed a few adult beverages:-)

Great lines here, Jeff, and you're right about the effect they might have. Might make for a few folks backward into the drink. :) #8212606Laura E. Swan December 13, 2009
I scrolled up and down and up and down looking at the stairs until I felt sick.I have to leave now...(Where's that bucket?)
HA! JJ! (Just joking!) But I did do that and I can safely say I agree with you. Look for marks at the bottom like Doug suggested! You might find some!
LOVE your POV here. Killer image!
