Tenacity
The dirt was just as hard as the concrete sidewalk. There was no evidence of any sort of recent moisture. And it was a hot day. Yet still, the flowers persevered.

Power + Light
I met up with a photographer pal of mine the other day in Tucumcari. We had a fine time locating old stuff to photograph; behind* an auto repair place, I found this nice little electrical installation.

*yep – I went around back.
never not creepy
I guess this could be considered a win? Two creepy dolls in one shop window?
But, seriously, the one on the bottom left…I am pretty sure her eyes are STILL following me, and it’s been 36 days since I made the photo.
It’s starting to feel less and less like a win.

Arise
This? Oh, just me and a camera and a cloudy afternoon.

Fuselage
When I was in Roswell, I skipped going to the famous (or famous-ish) International UFO Museum and Research Center and Gift Shop*, **. Instead I visited the dead-airplane repository out at the airport. Part of the place had airplanes that were more or less intact (including an Emirates Air 747, which was definitely not something I thought I’d ever see at all, let alone see in Roswell), but there was also the Fuselage Department (I made that name up)(which you probably already figured out) pictured here. And there was the Pieces of Engines Division. And, of course, the Bureau of Random Pieces. And some other stuff I didn’t make up names for.
It’s hard to imagine the space alien museum being more interesting or photogenic than this old stuff.

*I love that they were honest and included “gift shop” in the name.
**There’s a big event there at the museum (and gift shop) July 1-4, so you’ve still got time to make your travel plans.
