Another bad ending
The spray-painted non-official notice on the front of this house indicated it was scheduled for demolition on December 7, 2020. Obviously that didn’t happen, but it looks as though the house is demolishing itself, rendering the missed date more or less beside the point.

Slanted
I was walking around the now-abandoned hospital (the one where my grandpa died, but I wasn’t getting any weird feelings about that) when I saw the way the afternoon sunlight was slanting across the rough stucco wall. And then I noticed the stain left from the old downspout. Not a bad pair of things the old place had to offer.

What the Chamber of Commerce didn’t want you to see
I have a crush on downtown Littlefield: I will just go ahead and admit that right now. It’s got lots of empty buildings for me to photograph and I never get tired of looking at them.
But for all the times I’ve been there, I only just now noticed that from a certain angle you can see right through a pair of glassless windows and get a nice view of the Chamber of Commerce. It sort of sums up the whole town.
