These two landscapes were found in Quay County, New Mexico back in August as my son and I were driving back to Indiana after his visit with me in Santa Fe. They were made a few hundred feet apart along an access road along the north side of Interstate 40 just east of the town of Bard. The wind was blowing hard and the clouds were changing very quickly.
I still have a lot of photos from my summer road trips between Santa Fe and Indiana to work on. I got another done today, another photograph of the leaning water tower in Groom, Texas.
The tower once served to attract customers to the now abandoned Britten USA Truckstop along Interstate 40 just outside the Texas panhandle town of Groom.
Here’s the last photograph from the Fort Wayne Mirror Works building, made last week in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Here’s another photograph of the abandoned Fort Wayne Mirror Works store on Broadway in Fort Wayne.
I drove past the abandoned Fort Wayne Mirror Works building on Broadway in Fort Wayne , Indiana a couple days ago for the first time in nearly two years. The last time I had driven down broadway was before I moved to Santa Fe. I was surprised to see that the old grey siding that had covered the building as long as I can remember was gone, revealing this incredible old Pepsi-Cola advertisement.
Saint John Day Center is a homeless shelter on Muhammed Ali in Louisville. I thought the signs by the door seemed rather uncharitable to the street people the shelter is supposed to be serving.

This is the main door on the building pictured in the previous post Doors Within Doors. The door appears to have been set incorrectly in the masonry so that it is not straight up and down. I’ve seen a lot of old wood-frame buildings with crooked doors due to sagging of the building’s wooden frame, but this building is made of more solid brick and cinderblock.

Here is another photograph of the sign I found on a church on Muhammed Ali in Louisville. The simple message is one we need to hear more in the world: Love You.

I found this abandoned commercial building while wandering around Louisville last week. The doors intrigued me. The main entrance was installed crooked in place where another door was probably originally located, judging from the brickwork. The roll-up garage door has a smaller door inset into it, which I have never seen before.
