jjmaccrimmonAcross the road from the old service station lay a lone Quonset hut, clinging to life. The name above the door had faded so badly that it was unreadable with even the best photo enhancements. Surrounded by a high (unbroken) barbed wire fence, “sneak through” access was not possible. Since this was a casual trip, I didn’t bring overalls to either roll under the chain link safely or to protect my skin from whatever contaminants were in the soil. I’ll save exploring this building for another time.
The back door, er entrance…
Near the hut lay a small and recently used dumping grounds for the detritus and debris that someone chose to leave here. Why do people get this inane idea that new garbage needs to be left at much older, abandoned sites? The old garbage is much more interesting!

Many of you have probably noted that the pictures are excessively bright or washed out (too much light). Two reasons for it, first I don’t have a polarized adapter lens to cut some of the glare. If anyone has one that would fit my old Minolta Maxxum 3ix, please feel free to let me know. Second reason is even more academic. It was brighter than you could imagine. It was one of those days where even a hat and sunglasses couldn’t keep light from prying the eyes into a deep scowl. After I get the current roll of film in camera developed, it’s going to the local photo shop for a cleaning and checkup.
Looking back, one more for the road
On to the farms… more to follow on the AV Tour
