I found a treasure the other day, on the corner of 5th Street and Harrison Avenue, in Lorenzo, Texas. There’d been some sort of retail operation there (A thrift store, maybe? It was already out of business on the 2023 Google Street View.) but the building had been lately torn down. Across the back of the lot were piles of bricks and ceiling tile and boxes and inventory. I spent some good time exploring.

This mannequin seemed creepy enough at the time to warrant a photo, but it got weirder after I got home and edited the picture – that’s when I noticed that her head had spun around until it was completely backwards on her shoulders.
