Out West

Castle Valley …

… a livestock ramp with Castleton Tower on the horizon.

degradation …

each spring in my trips west I park behind this single-wide by a derelict gas station to camp overnight in equally derelict Table Rock, Wyoming … and each year, more graffiti greets me when I arrive …

the dying barn …

… down the road from my house.

lit up …

… my first trip into a light box.

faster, faster …

… to beat the storm to the Border Inn … where a beer awaits me.

Three Dogs

shuttered, sadly …

the old general store in Eureka, Nevada …

October

Barberton Daisy

emptiness …
