take the train to the barber shop

Frog Lady

While driving along Hwy 395 paralleling the Sierra Nevada mtns in southern California, we happened to stop at an old (iron?) mining town for lunch. A small little town, at least what remains of it, that has kept some of it's historical past. There was a mining "museum", but only the outside yard was open. That's where we found this old steam engine.



There were several old store fronts along the main street and this barber shop caught my eye.


C&C welcome.

a little? How 'bout a whole bunch of super-duper, ultra, industrial strength WD1000?

Cool.

Did you notice that they ran out of blue paint for the barber shop?

Thanks for the comments Ric - yeah, lol, I had noticed the missing blue paint. Think I should finish it for them?

I'm sure they would like you to!

I think it adds to the shot and makes you think about the reasons why.
