red light district
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.

there’s always a water bottle
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.

steakhouse (in the rain)
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…

christmas (lights) in july
First of all, if you see cloth-covered electrical wires on home decor, it’s probably because it’s a real design-y lamp. If you see cloth-covered electrical wires on an abandoned building, it probably because at the place is old AF and was/is a fire hazard.
But at least the switch was off.
Secondly, how about those Christmas lights, which look for all the world like someone painted them?

at a cross road
When I come home with new photos to edit, one of my regular tools – in addition to Lightroom and Photoshop – is Google street view. I can get the exact street name, for example, or what a particular business is called instead of whatever name my name gave it (“junky hair salon” is very rarely the actual business name, for example). But anyway, that’s how I know for sure that the cross painted on this utility box has been there since at least May 2023.
