Peaked Roof of Abandoned Church

This is an abandoned church on one of the side streets in Anson, TX.  Doors and windows are covered with boards and the bell from the steeple is missing.

Boarded Windows

Walking around Cisco, TX, I saw the building down a side street.  It was abandoned and it had these boards on the windows and doors that I thought were interesting.

Front Wall

This is the front wall of a business that no longer exists at this site in Ranger, Texas.  It sits on a corner of the block.  It doesn't look like there was a fire, but there is no text or any markers indicating what type of business it used to be.

Woman on Billboard

This billboard is located in north Abilene, Texas.  I can't remember what the billboard is advertising, but it probably is for some woman's cause.  I thought it was interesting and I really liked it when I cropped the words and the woman.

Roadside Mailboxes

Barely hanging on.

Lone Tree

My photo club assigned topic for Jan was Lone Tree.  It was difficult to find a "lone" tree that looked interesting, so I just scrapped the topic and entered other photos.

The Jan meeting was canceled for some reason that didn't make sense to me and rescheduled for another month, so I guess I have another chance to enter that topic.  While walking around downtown Fairbanks, I saw this tree, and others, that were separated enough from other foliage to fit the topic.  

I thought this tree looked beautiful, so I tried to capture it, but there are still buildings and cars showing.

Really......it's just a snow covered fir tree, nothing special so I'm not sure I'll enter it.

I just think it's pretty against the gorgeous blue sky on a cold winter day.

Damaged Mailbox 

This mailbox is on the street for a house that's been abandoned for as long as I've lived here (and probably for many years before I arrived).  

Apparently, from the little bit I know about it, the house was built by the husband for the wife, but then the marriage didn't work out for some reason. 

The last time I saw the mailbox, it was in better shape, but not so much now.

Leaning Tower

I saw this tower while I was walking around some side streets in Cisco, Texas.  I have no idea what it was originally.

I'm grateful for:

cooler temperatures
