Metered Service

Of course I’ll walk down an alley!

That’s where the utility meters are.

Lost: 2 Bulls

We nearly missed this sign. Well, we DID miss it, the first time by. At the very last second, I caught the word “lost” and decided it would probably be worth an investigative u-turn.

Turns out there are a couple of missing bulls somewhere near Spur.

The other side of the sign advertises 2 lost cows, both black.

Maybe there’s a fence in need of repair?

This took a while

It’s a big, old, leaky building. It’s full of old cars and trucks, broken (I assume) appliances, and piles and piles of clothes. This particular pile has been there so long that the coat hanger has started to rust, leaving a hanger-shaped stain on the shirt. In a rainy climate this wouldn’t take long – but Spur gets only about 23 inches of rain per year (less, lately: we’re in a drought). So, it’s been a while since that pile of shirts landed on the floor.
