^ Nice find, Tatiana. We call those Ghost Signs in Chicago. Often, an old adjacent building is torn down revealing a painted side from a hundred or more years ago. Most often, no one alive today remembers it was there until the demolition is done.

Thank you David - good to know about "Ghost Signs" I love them
Thanks! I was across the street filling up (my car), and that building was just staring back at me. I reparked the car and waited a while for a vehicle to move that was parked in front of it. I added some saturation to the final. That town was super cool to walk around. A good old train depot/restaurant too. One of the longer stops I've ever made for gas.

A large cliff dweller residence Navajo lands...
These are commonly known as cliff dwellings; they are not.
In 300 - 500 AD the Indian inhabitants had water at their door step.
The water got lower and they left to go on sea level land
Now these "holes" are 300' above the creek since the state of Arizona damned the river
A place where the money goes...
Very nicely shot and interesting story - thanks for sharing. I have to see this place one day...
