Car Park
I’m just throwing this one in to support my statement yesterday about how much I like parking garages.
Now that’s out of my system for a least a couple of days.

Gated
I have a weird fascination with parking garages – see here and here and here for some examples.
And of course, who could forget the Rude Canadian that Ehpem and I met in a parking garage.
And now we can add this one to the list.

Fuel Center
I like maps. Real ones, I mean, printed on paper with holes worn in the folds. My preferred way to travel is to chart my own path from one of these maps, and I am almost positive that I am better at figuring a route than the navigation system in my car could ever be.
But the other day, I decided to take a route that my car suggested. It was completely out of character for me, and I can’t really explain what happened. Maybe I needed that weekend away more than I realized! At any rate, the nav system sent me through the tiny town of Coyanosa, which I’d never even heard of before. It was a good route – nice road, almost no traffic, and even some things to photograph, like this out-of-business fuel center. I am trying to convince myself that I could have found this route on the map, without satellite intervention….

The fact of being curved
Industrial architecture used to be lot curvier than it is now, don’t you think?

Elevator
In case you’re not from an agriculture region, a grain elevator is where grain’s stored – this article explains it better than I can.
I haven’t photographed a lot of grain elevators, although they are lovely in their industrial-architecture way. This one is especially nice with the vertical lines in the rough concrete and the banks of windows climbing up the side.
