One lightbulb and one star
I was never lucky enough to get to see this sign when it had all its parts and when the Stardust Motel was operational. But I guess that’s OK, since I am sort of fond of the parts that are still there.

An attempt to blend in
When I was inside this place, I looked out the (glass-free) window and saw this trailer house trying to camouflage itself. It was doing a pretty good job, I guess, except for those two satellite dishes on top.

The Critical Element
This county park south of Marathon is an oasis – there’s a small dam across a stream, which makes for a nice wetlands habitat. There are big elm trees, too, so even in the heat of summer it’s a nice place to visit.
But if you’re planning a picnic, this particular picnic shelter is probably not your best option.

Roadside Eagle
I pulled over because there was a scenic overlook, across a narrow valley to the mountains. But when I saw that graffiti on the rocks, I sort of forgot about the view.

Drive Through
I was literally driving through Fort Davis when I spotted this place. I like arrows, and this one had some nice curves to it.
But the business is closed down, so there’s really nothing to drive through (or “thru”) for.
