Local Hotrods

Lubbock has some good car clubs. These pics were taken in the Depot District several months ago, at a charity auto show. These only scratch the surface. There were a LOT of sharp cars out there that day! My wife and I both like vintage autos.

Lubbock Windmills

You see a lot of windmills in this area. But not many are functioning-- they are mostly restorations for display and educational purposes. Here are pics of a few, some from the National Ranching Heritage Center and some from the Wind Power Center:

Lubbock in Black & White

These are from last weekend's harvest of pics, taken around town. We just stopped here and there. As usual, first I post the "starkers" type of pics, and then I do the others. I also have a lot of older pics of various sights and scenes I will be posting. This blog with be very pic heavy!







All the stuff above can be found along 34th Street, where construction seems to go on without end. This has to be the slowest construction project in town. Traffic disruption has taken a toll on small businesses. If there is anything the city council hates, it's a mom and pop style, small, locally owned business.

These are the last of the recent pics:







The fact that I have finished this series with a pile of pigeon crap should not be in any way construed as a commentary upon anything. It just worked out like that. Besides, it's real. It's there.
