The Grotto

An Oklahoman of my acquaintance tipped me off about this grotto in the cemetery in Canute.  The door was locked, but as you may have noticed I often shoot through glass. And that’s what I did. There’s just no stopping me.

Bowling alley (out of business)

It was almost too good to be true: an out of business bowling alley with front windows that my camera and I could look through. And as the best possible bonus, there were those three bowling balls on the checkered floor, looking for all the world like some kind of abandoned game.

I don’t know – for some reason it felt like a couple of people were outside, watching me eat lunch. Crazy, right?

With all the fine amenities this place offered – in addition to that rather fantastic sign – it makes me wonder why I failed to book us a room here. I hope I’m not losing my trip-planning mojo.
