Seeing 2012 (#2)

For your consideration: justice, back home . . . well, perhaps in the olden days of yore, the Wild West, but by now most of us have found the accuracy of our childhood history books at least as off-kilter as the beams supporting the eaves here.

The dark implications of the coffin notwithstanding (ironically placed in front of the "bank" — although not a trace of Occupy Ghost Town was in sight), this honorable effort of a tourist spot was a quite blissful encounter, being largely deserted during most of the time I spent strolling the sole soul street.

I felt entirely safe, even when peering around dark corners . . . for, after all, I was always armed with my pix shooter in hand . . .
