Vacancy
I really like peering into vacant buildings to see what sorts of things have been left behind. Usually I see piles of trash, or random things that weren’t important enough to pack up and move someplace else. Seeing an interior that’s mostly clean, and empty, is out of the ordinary.

White-hot
Those thick adobe walls protect the interior from the white-hot heat of a Texas summer.

The Server’s Breakfast
Mi Tierra is open all night; there’s no way to tell if it’s 9:40 in the morning or at night.
The best thing about stopping here is that it reminds me of a song, which is a shocking revelation to my friend Ehpem. Lyle Lovett’s song “San Antonio Girl” rhymes “Mi Tierra’s and “huevos rancheros”, a rhyme scheme that’s unexpected to say the least.
