Lubbock: Unplugged or Unhinged

This blog is an ARTISTIC regional photo journal. I focus on mundane scenes. ANY AND ALL STATEMENTS I MAKE HERE ARE MY OPINONS ONLY! I OFFER NOTHING WHATSOEVER AS A STATEMENT OF FACT! The photographs are offered as ARTISTIC EXPRESSION ONLY! They are not representative of anything other than themselves. Most of the places mentioned here have surely changed substantially since they were visited. Check my list of recommended sites at the bottom of this blog!

Defer Spur

Stuff happened, so we did not make it to Spur. But my wife decided to take her car and check out some things in Abernathy, just north of Lubbock. At one time her family lived in a converted gas station near a Methodist Church, and she wanted to see if the building is still there, and the church, and a school she remembered. Yes, those things are still there, and the trip gave me a chance to be a passenger and just kick back and take pictures on the road. It was a nice drive, and a hint of rain was in the air. Unfortunately, it did not rain much and our deep drought goes on, to a beat of its own. This pic series features Highway 27, not a bit like Highway 61, and sights on the road in Lubbock, between Lubbock and Abernathy, and in Abernathy.
