Embellishments

It sure was nice that someone took the time to embellish the boring “road work ahead” sign!

The bright, bright morning

That morning dawned bright, and illuminated the interior of Union Station in a very nice way.

Double Vision

I don’t know – for some reason it felt like a couple of people were outside, watching me eat lunch. Crazy, right?

The Rhythm of the Space

Remember this old place from three years ago?

This is what the outside looks like now – it’s (finally!) under renovation and all the “decorative” metal siding’s been stripped off, and you can see that it used to be white, and turquoise. Well, YOU can’t see that, since this is a black and white image, but I saw it.

That’s neither here nor there. What I really like about this is the way the entire frame devolves into about a million rectangles.

They say this place is haunted

No, really, that’s what they say.

We didn’t go there to see ghosts, which may be why we didn’t spot any. (None, so far, have shown up on the photos I made, either.)

The best part, other than this very cool trestle, was when this woman stood in a low spot that was still damp from a flood recently, and said there was an “odd smell” right there, which she described as “musty,” and that she was pretty sure the smell was evidence of ghosts. Maybe I’m just too literal, because I sort of thought the odd, musty smell was probably from the flooded ground and waterlogged plants and so forth. The way I see it, at least one of us is wrong.
