| | | So a few weeks ago my girl had asked if I wanted to go spend a few days with her at her parents house on the other side of Lubbock. My first response was, "Hell no, that is an 8.5 hour drive!" Then I looked at my map of places to visit... "OK, I'll go." But I went up separately than her. I left Thursday night and drove about halfway so I could wake up early Friday and visit a few spots on my way, then leave Sunday drive halfway in a different direction to visit some more. Below are photos from this 1400 mile drive across Texas. I apologize for some of the photos, quite dark in some spots, so some of them are not as sharp and clear as I would like. And the weather was crap! First off was just a small abandoned gas station I passed. I can never pass these up when I see them. 1. IMG_5951 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 2.

IMG_5992 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr My next stop was one I had been looking forward to for a long time. The old school in Indian Gap. I was very upset to only find this though. I should have grabbed a brick. 17. IMG_5995 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Next stop was a little church. 18. IMG_6000 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 19. IMG_6002 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 20.

IMG_6035 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Then another even smaller church. Empty inside. 29. IMG_6045 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 30. IMG_6046 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Then another church, a little bigger, but still empty. But had been on my list for a while, I just wish the skies were better. 31.

IMG_6065 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Came across some sort of medical place next. Very small, had a lab, and one classroom, and about 6 small rooms that I assume were exam rooms, but it was all empty and pretty uninteresting. 35. IMG_6093 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Next up was another school. tracherous flooring, but I liked it. 36. IMG_6106 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 37.With what I thought was an pretty nice gym. IMG_6108 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 38. IMG_6123 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 39. Love the painted backdrop. IMG_6110 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 40. IMG_6109 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 41.

IMG_6130 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr The next explore day was Saturday, my girls parents knew what I was into and I had expressed an interest in a couple of local buildings in thier town. Both medical facilities. Well, my girl's mom's dad was a doctor at one of them when she was a child, and then later on she worked there as well. After my girl and I found a way to get in we wandered around a bit and fond a door we could open to let her parents in. THis is the first time my girl had gone with me on an explore, and first time her parents had ever done thi sas well. I totally enjoyed having some first timers with me! This place was pretty trashed, but it was neat to have a guided tour from someone who had spent a lot of time there. 45. IMG_6153 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 46.

IMG_6215 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 58. IMG_6220 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Next up was a nother local building that had also been a clinic at one time. 59. IMG_6227 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 60.

IMG_6263 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 65. IMG_6277 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr Next was Monday on the way home. I had several spots picked out, but after getting to my hotel for the night, I realized my battery charger was still plugged in 4 hours behind me. So I had one dead battery and one with about 25% charge. Did not get pics of everything I wanted to, but oh well! Still had fun. 66. IMG_6292 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr 67.

IMG_6326 by Neurotic Matt, on Flickr That is the end! Congrats if you stuck through all of that! Big plus that came out of this trip for me is the fact that my gal loved it, and has already bought boots to wear for exploring.
