i love a good reflection

You don’t have to spend a real long time looking through my photo archive (a term I use because I am feeling extra fancy today) to figure out that I take a lot of photos of things reflected in windows.

So you shouldn’t be too surprised to see what I found in Ness City, Kansas. (I don’t know what a “Ness” is and I’d be hard-pressed to call the place a “city” but at least it had reflections.)

Ness City is the kind of place where there’s a building nicknamed “The Skyscraper of the Plains.” And it’s four stories tall*.

To be fair the SOTP is a pretty fantastic building, made from stone and full of grand architectural details. There are other once-elegant buildings in town which makes me think the place was once a wealthy town.

So of course I spent most of my time in town checking out the truck with a carpet, carpet padding, and a chair. It was very nice.

*Or three. It depends on which Wikipedia article you’re looking at. The SOTP also has a basement, so who even knows what’s going on with the floor-count.
