Small town Americana


I got this shot today, in Riverton, Kansas. It's down in the Southwest corner of the state and is only a little over an hour from Springfield.

It's a market (of some kind) and also, as here, in good weather, an open air restaurant. I thought it looked fantastic.  I couldn't stop for breakfast so I think I'll go back on a Saturday and just take in all the shade and peacefulness and quiet. It looks like quite the spot.  To me, anyway.

I thought it picture-perfect, figuratively and literally. Coincidentally, it really is on old Route 66, too, as the sign suggests.

Makes you want to go, doesn't it?  It does me. It looked and felt like a remnant of what some Mayberry, RFD would look and feel like.

Sunrise on the lake

I shot this mid-March last month, exactly one month ago because it was the morning of the 16th, on the way to work.  As always, to date, if it's here and it's a lake, it's Smithville Lake, North of here.  It was a mild, misty morning and I loved the scene on the lake and how this turned out.

Dawn

As we (in Kansas City) all know, the Nelson-Atkins Art Gallery, at dawn.  (Click on picture for bigger, better viewing).
