Nashville Boots






Some of the many boot shops in downtown Nashville. There was a bunch. So many you would think that the supply would make the prices reasonable. Wrong. So wrong. We came home and spend half of that.

Sun Mike


Sun Studio in Memphis, the place where Elvis got his start. The Sun legend was further fueled by the likes of Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Roy Orbison. What songs do who sing to this microphone? Did the King of Rock n Roll grip it while doing the hip thing? Did Johnny sing about Folsom Prison with it? Some things the world may never know.

Spellcheck, Please.


Gas pump in Limon, Colorado. Is that Ho-made or Homemade? At least it's nice to know they keep their Ho's busy during the day making pastries.


Thrift shop in downtown Chamersburg, Pa. Buy -N- Seel. I think they need a little more blackout, I mean whiteout.


Diner, Cleversburg, Pa. I'm really surprised they didn't spell it with an "SH".

Nothing But Blue Skies


I took this last year at about this time. I thought it was cold then. Well, it's cold now. It was 4 below Tuesday morning. Calling for 50 on Saturday. If you don't like the weather around here, wait 5 minutes.
