Here I go again, shooting through dirty windows to see what’s inside an abandoned church…

Many Skeletons
A sign of changing times: this particular scene, full of abandoned stuff, is repeated over and over again across Texas high plains farms.

A sense of abandonment
There is a lot going on here, and not one thing indicates anything but more destruction for this old place.

These are days
This used to be a grand old place, but it’s obviously gotten over that now. It is more interesting this way – at least to my photographer’s eye.

as the sun sets on another dying town
Someone’s big dreams landed here, in the early 1900s. The town was platted, named then renamed, and there was a post office, a general store and hotel, a blacksmith shop, and a church or two, and even according to one account, a doctor – all there in hopes of benefiting from the future railroad. And then (you know how this goes), the railroad failed to materialize. The town hung on for a while but started to fade away.
The official population of the place is listed at 10.
