tin ceiling
Winter got to Joplin the very same day that I did, so my photos were made on very short walks. One of these walks (a walkette?) I happened to see what I am sure started its life as a car repair garage. Currently it is a restaurant supply place and kudos to the current people for keeping those old tin ceilings. That’s a nice bit of history and nostalgia.

celebrating years
I love how the Munger Moss Motel is proud of being on Route 66, but also sort of shy about announcing just how many years they’ve been there. I mean, I get it: I’m of a “certain age” myself and would prefer to have to say that big ol’ number out loud.
So, same, Munger Moss Motel, same.

“espresso shots”
Yikes! There’s a lot going on here. But my favorite (and the reason for the photo) is the paper plate that’s serving as a sign on the wall of this bakery.
But I do wonder what exactly is the difference between regular espresso shots and their offer of “espresso shots.”
