Billy and Doris Mae never could agree on that open-door policy
You know that I have a tendency to crack myself up, right? It happens pretty often, and this is a good example. When I was editing the photo, the sentence, “Billy and Doris Mae never could agree on that open-door policy” appeared in my brain and just wouldn’t leave until I made it the title of this photo. It hung on with such determination that I almost believe the veracity of it. Yes! I *almost* believe in the VERY THING I that made up.
Another sentence that ought to show up in my mind but has not (as yet) done so is “I should probably seek the help of a mental health professional.”

sirloin, only four blocks away
I don’t know – maybe I’m being too critical here. But the condition of this restaurant’s signage seems to serve primarily as a reminder to always carry Emergency Snack Items® when you’re on a road trip. You can always count on the Pringle’s but the sirloin situation can be capricious.

ranch security
I’ll tell you one thing: I did not even THINK about trying to breach the fence-and-antler security system. Nope. Not even a little bit.

*”Dougherty” is of course pronounced in the lazy-ass Texan way as “Darty.” I once spoke with a gentleman there who told me the whole story about the time “the school blowed up.”
