Windy edge of the escarpment

When you live on the Plains, vistas like this are dramatic and unusual. And if this image barely does it any justice.

Post Office: closed for business

If you ever wondered – and I am sure you have! – what the inside of a closed-down post office looks like, then today is your lucky day. They look like this.

Don’t you feel better now?

Jesus and the arrows

We’d had a lot of rain, and I took advantage of the first sunny day to get out and see what I could find. I saw the “Jesus Loves You” sign and all those arrows as I turned the corner. I drove a mile or two before I decided that it was worth making a photo of, and then had to drive about five more miles to find a place that was dry enough for me to turn around.

That’s a problem I almost never have.

Awning is surprisingly new

It’s a little hard to figure out everything that’s going on here – the building is old. And abandoned. The roof has holes in it. But that awning is fairly new. (It’s also crooked, for whatever that’s worth.)

I can’t add all those parts up and get an answer that makes any sense.

Caprock Cafe (but not the one you think)

One of our favorite places to grab lunch is the Caprock Cafe. Not this one, though – we actually prefer the one that’s got a roof. And that is still in business. We’re discerning that way.
