Giant badmitten birdie made of iron, or life size replica of a Fallout 3 structure? |
I think I met about 22% of the population |
Fourth of July in smalltown America |
Mt. Shasta from Lookout Road |
All the crop grasses were really lush that day |
You can just make out a couple deer in this. Wish I had a zoom. Saw HELLA deer that day, and only one of them was dead on the roadside. The rest were living! |
It only took 21 miles and ten hours, but I made it. |
Good Morning Modoc. Actually, it wasn't that good. I didn't sleep for shit, ran out of smokes, and had a seriously long day ahead of me. |
If I were in Skyrim blah blah blah you know the deal. |
Mt. Shasta re-emerges from the Modoc |

DeleteThese photos are photo-journalism at its finest. Beautiful. The flag lined road brought a tear to my eye and the rusted out metal building with a STOP sign in the foreground is really powerful. Keep it up, Jim. These moments may just become a book.
