    Nice shot! I have a friend in the Rochester, NY area who specializes in b&w shots of abandoned, dilapidated buildings, and this reminds me of her work.

    Hi Roy: Thanks so much! A good b&w photographer who likes ramshackle buildings would have a heyday in Idaho & eastern Oregon.

    Nice one, John! I like the dilapidated buildings too. I can't help but wonder, was there ever an apostrophe? I like the missing "r".

    Hi Kat: Thanks! I wondered about the apostrophe, especially because there's seems to be a bit of extra space between the "T" & the "S"--or maybe the extra pace was supposed to stand in for an apostrophe!

    I like the irony in this photo.

    Have a happy fourth of July.

    Great photo. I go with the apostrophe theory. An apostrophe would only be connected to one bar, so would have twice the chance of falling off.

    Went through a phase of collecting photos of wonky signs. My favourite was "Anger Rock Falls".

    Hi Dominic: Excellent point about the odds of an apostrophe falling off! & in truth my proposal about the space standing in for an apostrophe seems "too clever by half." "Anger Rock Falls" would be a great sign!
