Moving Along With Brownfield

For those who like classic cars, there's a treat at the end of my Brownfield survey.




There's still a lot of these ruins, too.




It seems that a Thunderbird Club was having a meeting in Brownfield, and so I photographed their cars in the parking lot of a Subway. Next blog entry will be nothing but old Thunderbirds.

Brownfield-- More

More Brownfield, examined closely...




There's a weed problem in Brownfield, but also in every other town we've visited. Lubbock can't keep up with the weeds, either.




We saw plenty of abandoned buildings and not much new construction.

Still Looking At Brownfield

When you look closely at these towns, you find that there is an enormous amount to look at. 




Old houses are great!




There's more Brownfield yet to see!

Continuing Brownfield, Texas

We are taking a closer look this time than the last...



 Interestingly enough, now Brownfield seems to have one of those mysterious "Black Tower" installations!




There are also plenty of abandoned building in Brownfield, just rotting away in the sun and wind and rain-- occasional rain.

Brownfield, Texas Re-examined

Recently we drove to Brownfield to take another look at that town, and the first thing we encountered was an auto graveyard. These cars had been in awful wrecks and we doubted that some of them were survivable. And so I begin this photo series with a warning to DRIVE SAFELY!




Here in Lubbock the Tech kids are back in town and most of THEM drive like idiots.



Some of the people who drove these cars didn't realize their destination would be a closed-casket funeral...
