the day the train came to town

Maybe you remember that time last summer when we drove many hours to see a train? We weren’t the only ones who made seeing that giant steam engine a spectator event.

Please Register

I am not sure if I’m going to get in trouble by admitting that I did not register, even though I was clearly directed to do so…

Tonight

Meanwhile, tonight at the drive-in movies – nothing will be showing. Please make other plans.

without faith (a diptych)

I’d been by this abandoned church before, and even stopped once. For reasons that I don’t comprehend, I decided to pull off the road the other day and have another look at it. The door was open so I had a look inside – and this diptych shows a couple of the things that caught my attention.

Famous Hamburger

If you are one of those people who never stop searching for the best hamburger ever, I would like to call your attention to this little place, which unabashedly proclaims itself to be the home of the “famous hamburger.”

But I should also mention that the place appears to be out of business. So there’s that.
