Surveilled
The 2018 census estimates put the population of Melvin, Texas, at 167. And I swear that every one of those 167 residents found a reason to drive through town while I was there. It seems more efficient if one person drives through and then lets everyone else know what’s going on. But what do I know?

A pair of shoes and a flyswatter
If conditions permit, I will always peer inside an out-of-business business: I have a strange fascination with seeing what things were not important enough to have been taken. The best things I spotted here were the flyswatter hanging on the wall, and a pair of Crocs.
But that wall just behind the Crocs has a story, too. Someone had really good intentions – they framed it and installed the gyp board, but somehow the taping/floating/painting steps never happened.
