On the outskirts of Wink, Texas, the home of Roy Orbison. His first band, in fact, was called the Wink Westerners. You’ve probably heard of them.
You can see a couple of other views of Wink here and here. (These are the same buildings, taken about a year and half apart. Time has not been kind to Wink.)
