visitor parking

It is a rare thing for me to walk by a parking garage and not take a photo. I’m not sure why I find them endlessly fascinating – maybe its the various textures of the concrete, the reflected light, the unseen movement of vehicles. Or maybe it’s because I was raised by a civil engineer.

But whatever the reason, here’s yet another parking garage…

the exchange

In the handful of minutes that I observed this interaction (or exchange, if you will), I made up a whole narrative in my mind.

In case you were wondering.

take it easy

I am a contrarian.

And that’s why when I was in Winslow, Arizona, I didn’t even LOOK at the famous corner.

But I did photograph this mural in Dallas.

Billy and Doris Mae never could agree on that open-door policy

You know that I have a tendency to crack myself up, right? It happens pretty often, and this is a good example. When I was editing the photo, the sentence, “Billy and Doris Mae never could agree on that open-door policy” appeared in my brain and just wouldn’t leave until I made it the title of this photo. It hung on with such determination that I almost believe the veracity of it. Yes! I *almost* believe in the VERY THING I that made up.

Another sentence that ought to show up in my mind but has not (as yet) done so is “I should probably seek the help of a mental health professional.”

sirloin, only four blocks away

I don’t know – maybe I’m being too critical here. But the condition of this restaurant’s signage seems to serve primarily as a reminder to always carry Emergency Snack Items® when you’re on a road trip. You can always count on the Pringle’s but the sirloin situation can be capricious.
