A dubious claim

Well, sure, the sign does say “open.” But there is not one single other indication that this is indeed the case. (For example, there’s this photo of the back of the place.)

Time is a cruel master

Obviously – since there are no tires or anything – it’s been a minute since this travel trailer traveled anywhere.

Unless you count its current route toward destruction as a trip.

Grow Light

Even copious amounts of sunlight weren’t enough to save this tree. But here’s hoping it died of old age, after a long and productive of providing shade and doing other tree-things.

Collapse

Out here in this part of Texas, a lot of things collapse. This old, fallen-down grain elevator is but one example.

Six Shooter (plus one)

Our good friends offered to drive on a trip, and even offered up taking the “prairie route” which they felt would better accommodate my photographic interests. It’s hard to imagine better friends than that, who willingly accept making our drive several hours longer than strictly necessary by the traditional Point A to Point B routing system. And not only did they willingly accept it, they actually suggested it in the first place.

Anyway, this was the first photo stop…so obviously the day got off to a stellar start. I mean – what’s not to like about an old car with a shot-out windshield.
