I found one particular building in Lowell Arizona (see last week's post) that was a photographer's dream. The old Texaco gas station and garage was decaying beautifully with all the 1940's charm still in tact.
At one side to the garage was a collection of antiques and some old benches in an area that looked like it might have been a place to rest and wait while your car was being serviced.
The front door to the garage was particularly picturesque and perfectly decayed.
I spent quite a bit of time admiring everything about this wonderful old building. Oh, the stories a place like Lowell Arizona could tell!

Well done Sharon. I am intrigued with things from the past. At one time in Canada, Texaco had 2000 retail outlets coast to coast. They were everywhere. In 1989, Texaco was purchased by Imperial Oil and its operations were merged into Imperial Oil.
It must have been quite something back in the day.
So beautifully described in pictures!
That car looks too well taken care of to be abandoned, like the building.
