Vacancy
I really like peering into vacant buildings to see what sorts of things have been left behind. Usually I see piles of trash, or random things that weren’t important enough to pack up and move someplace else. Seeing an interior that’s mostly clean, and empty, is out of the ordinary.

White-hot
Those thick adobe walls protect the interior from the white-hot heat of a Texas summer.

Shade Structure
I think we should pretend that bird is taking advantage of the shade structures. Birds get hot, right?

The facilities
Why, yes, I did make a photo of the tops of some portable toilets. And clouds. Don’t forget the clouds.

Order Window
If having a crush on a town is a thing, then I am pretty sure I have a crush on Spur. I go there often, and always find interesting things (like telephones or swimming pools or mysterious signs.)
On this particular trip, my friend Mary and I stopped for lunch at the Dixie Dog; we sat at the counter, which is how we were able to hear the cook say, when she’d caught up with the lunch orders, that she was going to step outside and smoke “a piece” of her cigarette.
How can you not have a crush on a town when you can hear something like that?
