abbey strand (with rain)
I didn’t actually even own an umbrella until I was 19 years old and was moving from Lubbock to a wetter locale for college. And then I went someplace even wetter for grad school, where I know for sure I kept umbrellas in my car all the time. But then I came back to Lubbock and probably don’t quite recall how to open an umbrella. And when I went to Scotland last year, I didn’t even take an umbrella with me. I’m not a total idiot – I had a waterproof coat with a hood and anyway how can you hold an umbrella AND use a camera?

orange night
I used to have a job (and I thought it was a career, but I was wrong) at the local transit system. This orange building was just across the street from where I worked but I was so caught up in the excitement* of my job that I hardly noticed that it was there.
So maybe it was an apology to the place when I went downtown the other night and made some photos of it.

*When I say “excitement” I actually mean abject boredom and rampant sexism. So you know, practically the very same thing.

That is ONE TALL COWBOY. And I’m pretty sure that, while he’s super polite and takes his hat off when he meets a lady and says “howdy” and all that, he also isn’t going to be too inclined to take any shit off of anyone.

even numbers
Naturally, with it being Texas and all, the motel had horse stalls for rent. And, also naturally, I went over to check it out.
There wasn’t a single horse, but wow! That light was stunning.

“daddy” seems ominous in this context
WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?
Are you as creeped out as I am by seeing “Daddy” painted over there on that wall?
