Oct. 19, 2021: Stop in Holbrook, Arizona. Holbrook, Arizona, was founded in 1881 and gained famed as a classic wild west town. Called a town "too tough for women and churches," Holbrook in 1914 was the only county seat in the United States without a church. The early Mormon settlers had left. Many residents served with Theodore Roosevelt's Rough Riders in the 1898 Spanish-American War. Today the Route 66 community of 5,000 is known for petrified wood stores and dinosaur sculptures.
Rusty Route 66 Bulb Beer Sign.Daggett, CA. I think it was Daggett, anyway. I like the shadows of the bulbs, esp. the ones on the rusty part. Oans, zwoa, g'suffa!

The relentless pursuit of likes and comments on the Instagram (yes, "the" Instagram) gets me down sometimes, and it's become apparent that the stuff people want to see is not photos of streetcars and ferries and cityscapes (the stuff I like to post); they want to see pictures of people. Or the algorithm is burying posts that don't have people, and pushing posts that do. Or they just want to see pictures of the bébé, and it feels like my art (my photography) doesn't matter anymore.
But I read something yesterday that said to keep making art even when no one cares. So I continue. And people on Flickr seem to like my art, so that's something.
I also remember that it doesn't really give lasting happiness if one of my pics gets a lot more likes than usual. I like when that happens, but it doesn't bring about a lasting sense of satisfaction. I always want more. I am pseudo-addicted to social media and that's the way they want it to be. I bet some of you are, too.
In any case, meaningful comments mean more to me than likes.

Three Enviros on routes 244, 291 & 469. Today is the last day of Arriva London operating the 469 and B12. Tomorrow both routes will pass to Go-Ahead London and will be operated with the Ex Abellio London buses displaced from the C10 route.
Go-Ahead ordered new StreetLites for route 192 when they took over the operations from their Northumberland Park (NP) garage in November 2014.
Go-Ahead London WS36 and WS44 are seen on stand at Enfield, Little Park Gardens both working route 192.
Stagecoach London (10138 LX12DFP) seen on the Route 145 near Dagenham Dock, this route is known for its long journey from Leytonstone, Waltham Forest to Dagenham ASDA, in Barking & Dagenham. What makes it so long is the route it takes, going through places such as Wanstead, Redbridge, Ilford, Barking, and Becontree.

On a rather damp Saturday 23 November 2019, London bus route 140 Harrow-Heathrow celebrated its history and marked its imminent shortening by supplementing 15 heritage buses into the existing service. This meant Volvo / Wright Gemini buses (and a solitary Plaxton President) were joined by 8 RTs, 5 Routemasters and 2 Metrobuses for the day.
My visit included photo stops at Hayes, Heathrow and Harrow Weald taking advantage of free rides aboard RM1397, M1069 and RT2177.
