Combo meal
This place needs a little bit of work, maybe.
But check out the lunch special – less than six bucks seems like a pretty good bargain, although I am not sure I’d want to sit very close to that wall.

For lease
Of course, in addition to taking pictures along 6th Street on Sunday morning, another good time to visit would be any time the sun’s still up. The place doesn’t really get started until way past dark.
If your fondest desire has been to run a bar in Austin, you might want to check this place out.

Service entrance
Thank you, Low Sun Angle, for illuminating the service entrance to Buffalo Billiards.
While I took this, a very large man stopped next to me, took a hit from his asthma inhaler and looked around to figure out what exactly it was that I could be interested in photographing. Unable to solve the mystery, he hitched up his pants, and headed on up the street toward Congress Avenue.
I thought you’d like that little detail.

Night
It was almost too much, walking around East 6th Street and the adjoining neighborhood, in Austin. Every place I looked I saw something that I wanted to photograph: walls, signs, bad paint jobs, worn brick, and on and on.
Since 6th Street is known for its nightlife, the best time for someone like me to visit is early Sunday morning, when there are no pesky people to get in the way of a good shot.
I spotted this gem on the way back from the weekly gospel brunch at Stubbs BBQ.

Sometimes, you just don’t WANT an explanation.
This is one of those times. Why was a cemetery cherub in a vacant lot? What happened to the cherub’s head? And, who poked a candle in the cherub’s neck, lit it, and let wax drip down its chest?
