Uno
Wine Label Series V
You didn't expect this, did you? Uno is an unincorporated town in Madison County, Virginia. This building was the old post office and general store, built in the 1890s. The area is now farmland and estates, with no downtown, actually no town at all. During the Civil War, the road was strategically important because it led directly to the Virginia Central Railroad in Gordonsville. The views here are rolling farmland, but this dilapidated building is iconic for Uno. Everyone knows it. So I took this shot, because, well, you know...
There are a lot of 'Uno / you know ' jokes still making the rounds. They all involve activities taking place on the second story of this building. Sometimes the second floor is a bar, sometimes a gambling joint, sometimes a brothel, and sometimes all three. But the jokes all end with the same punchline. One man says to another with a wink and a nod, "see you tonight at... you know..."
