Glancy

Oh, man! What a find! An out of business hotel, complete with a sign with a lot of fonts, a nice variety of shapes, and the relics of some old neon.

And this was a fun find: the Clinton City Council voted unanimously in August 2019 to have the building demolished. Apparently that didn’t happen,: in 2021 the Clinton Economic Development Authority authorized $7.75 million to renovate the hotel and an adjoining restaurant.

From what I saw, it’ll take every bit of that money to renovate the place, which had, according to the second article, “fallen into a deep decline.”

Lunch Cook

Lately I’ve been feeling like I want to photograph people. This is surprising because it goes against every single thing I thought I knew about my photographic self. Yet, here we are.

Hybrid Vechicle

So. This. I have no idea what it is or why it exists. All I know is that it required a u-turn for me to get this image.

Blue Whale

I almost forgot to stop by to see the Blue Whale on my recent Oklahoma adventure. Fortunately I was able to make a quick turn and get there before I lost the light. Because no trip to Catoosa is complete without seeing the whale.

Shamrock Slaughter

I don’t know what I expected to see in Shamrock. But it wasn’t this.
