My Patient Spouse said, “There are some great storm clouds south of town. Let’s drive out that way so you can take some photos.”

He was right – the clouds were very nice. But I turned my back to them (literally) because I saw this sign. You’d think he’d be used to that sort of behavior by now!

A mostly permanent situation

This sign gave me the impression the lot was more or less always for sale.

Coffee Along Route 66

The sign on the door said “Open Tuesday.” It wasn’t clear if it referred to the upcoming Tuesday or a long-ago one.

I have my suspicions.

Diesel and happy hour

It looks like all you can get here, at a no-name business, is part of some diesel and most of happy hour.

Hard Times

I think we can all think of an Internet-based reason why a roadside adult video store may have fallen on hard times.

This place is on my regular route to work and over the past few weeks I’ve been watching the sign’s decline. The panel that says “video” is barely hanging on, the whole thing rotates around when the wind’s just right, and one of these days (tomorrow, maybe) the whole thing will fall apart.
