If you really narrow your focus, there's an endless amount of stuff to photograph.
I guess someday I will get back to places like Spur and Ropesville and Brownfield and Anton and Crosbyton and Slaton and so on, but probably not soon.
To get the pics above I waded through weeds and got grass spurs all over me. Took forever to pick them all off. But that finished this location. Then I moved on to another location my wife and I visited. And that's the last time I will visit THAT location.
I'm slowly crossing things off of my list. More of Lubbock next time.
Again, these are areas I visited with my wife, and places where we found good material for this blog. I got back recently from New Braunfels, Texas and will have pictures from that site when I finish this Lubbock series.
I think I can cross this location off of my list of places to re-visit.
I used this location a lot. I always found interesting things to photograph here.
It isn't exactly painful to do these photo drives anymore, but I can't say that it feels good either. More sad than not. I have a lot more Lubbock stuff to get through before I ever make it to New Braunfels. I took a lot of photos there.
I looked at pretty much everything there is to look at in Acuff.
Here's the old house. It's been stripped down and it kind of looks like whoever was working on it gave up.
Maybe they decided it could not be salvaged.
Or maybe they just don't have that much time to put in on the job. I did not see evidence of wiring or plumbing.
When we looked at this place the first time, it still had walls. The walls concealed a lot of rot.
There's a LOT of work to be done here.
There's a lot of open space around Acuff. When I left I decided I would detour into Roosevelt.
I wanted to photograph this sign again. It is hard to see just what it says. But it's still there, and that was good. And then I stopped to photograph a few things on the road back to Lubbock.
That's the end of Acuff. I have no reason to return unless I decide, someday, to give the Acuff Steakhouse a try. First, I'll have to figure out when it is open.
