self portrait
Well, look at that! There I am, reflected in the headlight rim of an old motorcycle! (In real life, I am taller.)
This was right about the time a mom – one of those ones who have been fortunate enough to have given birth to the World’s Only – and Most Fascinating and Smartest – Toddler In History – shouted at me from across the gallery because she thought I was photographing her and the WO-AMFAS-TIH*. That was fun! I’ve never been yelled at in a museum. Photography sure does lead to a lot of new experiences.

*I wasn’t.
there’s always a water bottle
Fun fact: almost every abandoned building will have at least one water bottle gathering dust along with the other discarded parts of someone’s life.

one stitch holds it all
I have four or five vintage quilts; I don’t know the provenance of any of them, other than to say they are soft and old and lovely.
I like to think that this one stitch is the one holding the entire quilt together.

steakhouse (in the rain)
I just want to say that if you find yourself in Muleshoe, Texas, and you need a meal, definitely head over to Old Fashioned BBQ and Grill. I am sure the food’s good whether or not it’s raining when you get there…

at a cross road
When I come home with new photos to edit, one of my regular tools – in addition to Lightroom and Photoshop – is Google street view. I can get the exact street name, for example, or what a particular business is called instead of whatever name my name gave it (“junky hair salon” is very rarely the actual business name, for example). But anyway, that’s how I know for sure that the cross painted on this utility box has been there since at least May 2023.
