Coffee shop: napkin
In 1992, the town of Plainview stood in for fictitious Rustwater, Kansas, in the Steve Martin movie Leap of Faith; the scenes inside a diner were actually filmed in what is now called Broadway Brews.
Yesterday, I took myself on a little road trip and found myself in Plainview in the very same diner.

Fun facts:
1. The water tower still says Rustwater, Kansas.
2. And the brick wall on the alley side of Broadway Brews has a mural that references the movie.
Balance seemed iffy
Is it me, or does that building look like it’s about to fall over to the left?
Or does that joist sticking out look like a crowbar, left for a giant who is going to use it to pry the place apart?
Either way, I don’t think the long term outlook is particularly favorable.

Sundogs barkin’
Hello, and welcome to Random Music Friday, where we here at One Day | One Image introduce you to, well, random music. Today’s song is “Julia”, by the Flatlanders, one of many exceptional bands with deep musical roots in Lubbock.
Anyway, give the song a listen; it’ll make the title of this post make sense. Maybe.

Burn Barrel
I don’t know for sure if we’ve ever actually used the burn barrels out at our country place, but we’ve got them. Just in case. They’ve got a nice rusty look to them now – in other words, they are just starting to look old enough for me to want to photograph them.

Available Light
Afternoon sun, on dead flowers, a leafless trees, and a window missing glass and screen.
