My main rule is that if my friends Ron and Cheryl call up and offer a day-long road trip, the answer should always be an enthusiastic yes. And when Ron says for me to be sure and bring my cameras “just in case” the only thing left to do is coordinate what time they’ll stop by to pick us up.
And that’s the story of how I happened to see this plastic-shrouded piece of agricultural equipment along the highway.

Of course my eye was drawn to the only bit of color in the scene…even though what I’d gone over there to photograph was the remains of a building on the right side of the image. Now I can understand that the building-husk was just the bait to lure me in.

Fun fact: almost every abandoned building will have at least one water bottle gathering dust along with the other discarded parts of someone’s life.

I just want to say that if you find yourself in Muleshoe, Texas, and you need a meal, definitely head over to Old Fashioned BBQ and Grill. I am sure the food’s good whether or not it’s raining when you get there…
