Downpour
We took a more-or-less aimless drive the other day, eventually ending up on a road just because the map indicated a cemetery along the way. As a bonus, that route pointed us right toward some afternoon storms that were building up. And then, as a double-bonus, just when we got to the cemetery one of the clouds, off in the distance, decided it was time to rain.

Portrait (of a portrait)
I went over the Tucumcari the other day, the way you do if you’re a black and white photographer and like old stuff*. And while this portrait-of-a-portrait-that’s-really-a-mural doesn’t technically fall into the category of “old stuff,” I photographed it anyway. I am bold like that.

The Flood: a reflection
The weather was oddly rainy earlier this summer. And it’s flat enough here that there are some pretty large puddles that hang around.
You know what I did about that.

8-7 Buffet
I was embarking upon a 280-mile drive the other morning. And I made it all of 27 miles from my house before I was compelled to exit the highway and make a series of turns to get back around to photograph this place. And the thing is, I’d already driven by it a thousand times (estimated) and never even noticed it. Until I did. And of course, once I saw it, I had no option but to photograph it.
Road trips with me are time-inefficient, but just rich in frequent stops.
