Maybe you feel like you need to spend more time reading? But it feels like a whole book is too much?
I am here with a solution.
Go over to Taiban, and step inside the old church and read the walls. The plot can be a little hard to follow, but it won’t take you long to read the stuff that’s there. And the next time you’re there, you can read a whole new assortment of things.
That’s a literary win. Kind of.

pedernal: a non-traditional angle
If you are the littlest bit familiar with Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings of the New Mexico landscape, then I bet you’ve seen various versions of the mesa known as the Pedernal.
However, for some reason, none of hers included a picnic shelter and/or a belly dump trailer. That seems like sort of an oversight on her part, but who am I to say?

candles (plan view)
There are some things I will almost always photograph; there’s not any particular thread that connects them (as far as I can tell) (and I don’t want to frighten any of you by sharing that list) so I’ll just mention that candles at religious places are definitely included.

the way is clear
I was a weird, anxious little kid. Almost everything gave me reasons to worry.
For example, Young Me would have been terrified of these cliff-side signs; I figured our station wagon and our entire family would probably somehow not make the curve and would wind up in a busted-up heap way down below.
Now, all these decades later, I was so brave and stood right there and made a few photos. And then, I got in my car and continued the drive up the mountain without the tiniest bit of anxiety.

helpful information
Well, ok.
But what are you actually supposed to do with this information?
