A wrench in the works
The same broken down, rusted truck had been parked outside this place for at least four years, so I figured if I went in to look around, there’d be no one else there.
And I was right. I was the only one there, and I found the usual assortment of odd, abandoned things. Like a two-legged chair. And a giant wrench.
All in all, it was worth the stop.

Bill Gannon: “What do you think happened here?”
Joe Friday: “I don’t know. Must’ve happened fast — they must’ve left in a hurry.”
Gannon: “What makes you say that?”
Friday: “Well, a man doesn’t leave a wrench like that unless something bad’s happening.”

No – I was working at home this morning. I did ALMOST wake up the cat, though.

Well, you were spared the Crazy Lady Label… unless you’re already sporting that trophy in your office.

There is a very slight chance – so small I hate to even mention it! – that I may already possess said trophy…

Exquisite! So many things to contemplate here. Most of all I like the scenes on the wall—um—through the door and windows, I mean. Maybe they take on their importance largely because of the contrast with all the decorations and architectural features inside the building.

Thanks, Linda. The view from the windows and door takes on the feel of a mural, almost, I think. I was happy that the windmill was in such a good spot to line up in the window.

Indeed…quite worth the stop.

I was wondering where I left my giant wrench. Thanks!

Do you want me to run down there and get it for you? It’s only 2,174 miles from here, to there, to Webster (Where Life, etc.). So don’t wait dinner.
