Diesel and happy hour
It looks like all you can get here, at a no-name business, is part of some diesel and most of happy hour.

98
Here’s a close-up from the same spot as yesterday’s post; somebody left their Oldsmobile 98 here, presumably for safekeeping. That might not have worked out quite like they’d planned.

What passes for a forest
Don’t laugh, if you’re from somewhere that’s got actual trees.
Around here, this would be considered a wooded area.
Some day, I’ll explain our concept of “wetlands.”

Jalousie
This was my first visit to Kress, Texas, even though I’d driven past it hundreds of times, which just goes to show what having a camera in your hand will lead you to do! Like drive a mile off the Interstate to make photos.
Anyway, I found a fantastic abandoned gas station. The glass was long-gone, of course, but the frames from the original jalousie windows were still there.

The well-lit arrow
As it turned out, Sunday morning was a great time to be making photos on SW 6th Avenue (the old Route 66): the stores didn’t open until noon (if they opened at all), so it was just me and the Patient Spouse, some interesting lighting, and a bird.
