18 and 7 are down for the count
I have a thing for photographing laundromats. I have no idea why – it’s just a subject that frequently captures my eye.

corner store
This used to be a thriving corner, right there at the intersection of Main and Railway Streets. It has, however, gotten over that, with nearly the entire block of buildings sitting vacant. It’s not anything I haven’t seen before in a thousand little towns, but it still made me sad to see the same scene repeated here.
