It all falls down
Santa Rosa’s got three cemeteries – Evergreen Cemetery, out on the north side of town; San Jose Cemetery, down a narrow road on the east part of town; and the very old Saint Rose of Lima cemetery.
That’s where what’s left of a chapel stands guard over graves and weeds as the plaster falls away from the stone walls bit by bit.

The things up there, #2
Looking up, again. Now there are those two light fixtures, hovering above an abandoned business and its vacant parking lot.

That’s quite a bit of red
If you peek in the window of this now-defunct restaurant, this is what you will see. There’s quite a bit of red trim, and a chair. A chair! And, note that this particular chair is not just sitting around; rather, it is hard at work making sure that door stays open.

A wavy line
Just yesterday, I said the photo had “just about everything.”
But it actually didn’t. It did not have a single wavy line.

Just about everything
Do your prefer lines in corrugated metal to run horizontally? Got it.
Or, maybe you prefer a vertical alignment? Got that, too.
Do you like metal ducts that shine in the sun? Yep.
Or bricks with random patterns of light and dark? That’s here, too.
Downspouts? Yes.
Guy wires? Certainly.
Four black windows, way up on the wall? Indeed.
This place has just about everything you’re looking for.
