80% off really draws them in
Sears was only open two more days after this. Those deep discounts meant the store was more crowded than it had been in recent memory.

Who am I to doubt these mysteries?
It’s been a while since I’ve posted song lyrics that (in my mind) relate to the day’s image. This photo made me think of the song “Guadalupe” with the fantastic line “Who am I to doubt these mysteries?” and here are two versions of it. This one is by Tom Russell, and this one is by Gretchen Peters, with Tom Russell. (If you like the way Tom and Gretchen sound together, you should look for their album One to the Heart One to the Head.)
I found these well-used candles in the church in Terlingua, Texas’s most famous ghost town.

A walk in the woods, and a lovely back-lit plant.

Hot bath
I spent a couple of nights in a vacation rental that was an Airstream trailer. Here’s what I learned:
1. The place was cute, but it looked a little better online than in person.
2. Damn. It was TINY inside.
3. I could never be one of those people who live in a “tiny house” because it turns out there’s a bit of claustrophobia in my veins…
4. The inside shower was approximately the size of a suitcase.
5. Which made the outdoor shower extremely appealing.
