They do go on
This store, The Famous, has been out of business for years – ten or fifteen, maybe. The last window displays are still there, in all of their faded, out-of-fashion glory. Like this dimpled lad, with his platinum hair and sun-burnt tuxedo. And, isn’t he wearing a surprising amount of eye makeup? Or, maybe that’s what you do when you wear a tux; my experience is pretty limited.

Nightclub, daytime
So, what do you think? Should we just assume this place looks great in the dim, beery light of nighttime?

Perils of outdoor seating
These old fiberglass chairs have taken on a bit of water; I hope they don’t turn into mosquito-breeding tanks.

Beverage Station
Sometimes, you can just tell by the name of the place that there was some sort of drama involved. Like this café I went to in San Antonio – The Original Blanco Café. I was hoping the inclusion of “original” in the name was a veiled reference to some sort of acrimonious split, but a glance at Google seems to indicate that this is the first of two or three other locations of the same restaurant.
So much for drama.
Unless you want to count the lovely drama of the beverage station, with the bucket of lemons, the framed photograph on the wall, and the stacks of glasses.

No, this can’t be good.
Whatever is going on, I blame on the guy in the tie-dye shirt. You can just tell he’s up to no good.
