Chinese Restaurant, night
If you’ve been around this blog for very long, there’s a pretty good chance that you’ve seen some other photos of Santa Rosa; it’s one of my favorite locations. The place has a lot going for it: it’s close enough to Lubbock that it’s not a huge deal to get there; my spouse goes there as often as possible to scuba dive (really!) which gives me time to wander around; there’s a huge inventory of derelict structures.
You may recognize this building, which has made a couple of previous appearances here at One Day | One Image: here. And here.
I like the building. I like its very non-PC name. I like that giant canopy. I like…well…I sort of like all of it.

Looks like a former QuikieMart set up – What was the source of the frontal illumination? I do like the warm light of this mixing with the cool night sky – Maybe “No Free Deliver” did them in…

Yes, it DOES seem like “no free deliver” may have been a bad business decision.
The lighting is from sodium vapor streetlights, with just a touch of lighting from the hotel across the street.
Santa Rosa is full of abandoned places – you’d probably have a good time there…

Another one for my must do list 🙂
