Underneath a starry New Mexico sky, this abandoned motel is illuminated only by nearby street lights.
This week, we are challenged to share a photo that “shows us abandoned.” See the original challenge post here.
I submit for your evaluation two examples of abandoned property taken yesterday and today in and near Carlsbad, New Mexico.
This weekend, my wife, Lynn, and I are visiting Carlsbad Caverns, NM. We spent several hours over 750 feet underground, and soon I will share a gallery of photos of the caverns with my blog readers.
The Pecos River flows through Carlsbad, New Mexico, however a 3-year drought has caused the abandonment of many water-based activities along the river.
