Toyah, Texas

An Abandoned church (and rectory?) in a tiny town that, like so many others, has seen hard times. Never anything but a very small town, now, most of its buildings stand empty, including the former high school, a photo of which I uploaded earlier ( www.flickr.com/photos/80014607@N05/51921562555/in/datepos... ).

 

As noted for that high school photo, it was the distant view of the school that led me to exit I-20 and take a closer look at the town. At best the future of this town looks to be dismal.

 

It was while taking photos here that I abruptly began seeing flashes of light in my left eye, accompanied by the sudden appearance of a giant floater/eye spot. Being a nurse I knew those to be possible symptoms of a detached retina, I sought out an optometrist the next day and fortunately, it turned out to be something more benign.
