US 59
Sunday I had a PR assignment in Houston. I am always in a hurry when I am driving there or back, but this time I told myself I was going to stop and take some pictures. I had my oldest step-son with me helping me drive so I got to sit and look out for shots.
The top image is a closed down drive-in south of Nacogdoches on US 59, which the state of Texas is turning into interstate 69, and will be soon demolishing the old structure. So, I had to make sure that I stopped and documented it before it was no longer there. I don't know if I will get a chance, but it faces west and I would really like a shot of the sun coming up right next to it.
The middle image is from downtown Houston, the sugar skull I saw on a junction box right in front a cemetery and thought it was too perfect to pass up the shot.
Finally, the bottom image is one that I have been dying to get since the first trip I took down 59 last January. I have also seen the tag in Dallas and out on I-20 on a railroad bridge so I am guessing that it was the same person cruising around Texas throwing up the Bob Omb tag for us. I just think it is excellent that this guy is just hanging out in the middle of the Big Thicket in between Moscow and Corrigan Texas it's too perfect.
