reality calls
I mentioned the other day that I’d visited a cemetery that had what appeared to be the world’s largest sticker farm.
This is that cemetery. I made it all the day to the far side (which wasn’t that far – it was a very small place) by walking on the concrete curbs around the graves. It was barely worth the trip because I couldn’t get good angles on the place without getting closer than I wanted to be to all the stickers. The consolation prize is this: a dead flower head and a couple of markers and some bokeh.

when you don’t have a b
Here’s a handy tip I learned from observing conditions at a convenience store: you can indeed make a B for your sign from an L and a lower-case O.
Travel: it’s educational.

handbag
I don’t know why there was an old vinyl handbag hanging on the wall of an abandoned building in a tiny, out of the way town.
However, I do know that there was nothing inside of it.

lilies, considered
On the front end of a recent trip, we encountered a cemetery that was home to approximately all the stickers in the entire world; it was in a town called Old Dime Box.
On the way back to the airport at the other end of the trip, we found a well-organized and manicured cemetery; it was in a town called Dime Box.
Go figure.
