Look at you, your gorgeous creature! And you have a monkey on your back, don't you? And may I give kudos because this is an excellent example of how to integrate old and new buildings. Almost as interesting is that the county's administration building is right across the street. Yes, I know I had all … Continue reading 395. Little Rock, Pulaski County (AR21) →

I'm a little bit amazed that I even made it here! Who has an exit off of a 65 MPH highway that drops down to 15 MPH? Without serious forewarning? I almost flew off of that curve! That was crazy! Seriously! At least I got to look at another clock tower. And you know what … Continue reading 394. Benton, Saline County (AR20) →

Again, no objections to the courthouse. The seasonal stuff is a bit harder to avoid at night, seeing that it is usually either illuminated or incandescent. As much as I try to avoid it, primarily because I would prefer the pictures to be timeless, there was no getting around this Christmas tree. And, as much … Continue reading 393.

Look at all that brick... I'm OK with this courthouse. Especially the clock tower. I find I'm beginning to enjoy them as an architectural feature. It's strange to me that one would even have favorite architectural features, much less that I would begin to develop them. And it seems I am beginning to do just … Continue reading 392.

So, for both posterity and two people who didn't read about it already, I got interviewed by Groundspeak. If you already read it, this is nothing new. Heck, it may well be what brought you here in the first place. But if you didn't, you might find it interesting. You may even enjoy it! But … Continue reading Here It Is 2: Electric Boogaloo! →

Welcome back to scenic Arkansas. I must admit that I felt a little bit cheated on the way here because I didn't get that lovely British voice saying "Welcome to Arkansas." I also got here pretty late/early (depending on your perspective), so I decided to go ahead and see if I could get some photography … Continue reading 391. Prescott, Nevada County (AR17) →

My white whale has been met and bested! I've planned three trips here and all of them had to be discarded for various reasons. Having to come here in concert with finishing the rest of the state would have created a giant complication no matter how I could plan it. From a nomenclature perspective, it's … Continue reading 390. Cameron, Cameron Parish (LA44) →

As we pulled up to the courthouse, my youngest asked "Is this a courthouse? I thought it was a school!" I think that kind of says everything about what I think about this courthouse. Of course, for those of you who might prefer the more festive version of the courthouse... This is not my first … Continue reading 389. Idabel, McCurtain County (OK21) →

This, my friends, is a very handsome courthouse. It feels solid and almost radiates an aura of safety. Of course, I have an odd perspective on these so please don't fret about any residual radiation that may not actually exist anywhere other than my addled brain. It looks like a wonder of the WPA, but … Continue reading 388. Hugo, Choctaw County (OK20) →

Nice courthouse... Very reminiscent of the Panhandle. But I am also pretty worn out at this point. I like to jet around from place to place and see the world (or at least a few new corners of it) from time to time, but I often find myself hampered by two things. First, I often … Continue reading 387. Waurika, Jefferson County (OK19) →
