We Have Been Very Busy!

Not much time to take photos. This series ends at Erskine and Ave U.

 Here in Lubbock, after so much rain, weeds and mosquitoes are out of control. I've been bitten so much, and I've felt so lousy lately, I would not be surprised to find that I've had a dose of West Nile or Dengue Fever. But I'm recovering, I hope.  Yesterday seems to have been the worst, with flu-like symptoms and aching joints.

 An example of neighborhood spirit, above...

We are near Erskine and Ave. U here. And we found an old SHACK!
Down by the railroad TRACK!
Klick KLACK!
Klick KLACK!
Right across the tracks from this terrific old ruin is the local Knight's Of Columbus headquarters.
 

More Views Of Lubbock

These were taken on North University, Clovis Road, and on Erskine. In that general area.

 

More From East 50th

Lots of automotive stuff out here...

Lots of businesses that came and went...

The weeds grow tall and the mosquitoes grow fat.
 

Lubbock Residences On East 4Th

We examined this area after a rain and most of the roads were not paved. Caliche surfaces were slippery and I had to be careful not to go off into a deep roadside ditch.

Near Acuff we found a semi that had run off the road and a sheriff's deputy was working the scene. 

 We returned via East 50th. Note the oil and wind power. 

Automotive Junk

This automotive junk is on South University. 

There's nothing quite like a junked-out old car.

Old abandoned buildings run a close second.
