nostalgia is as beautiful as a bruise

color photograph: a dismally sad grey drive through on the side of a vinyl-clad building, albeit with a vibrantly blue paint on its foundation and window shutters. to the left, a lettered marquee reads “drive thru open til 2am 7 nights a week”; next to that is a sagging red banner proclaiming “VIDEO GAMING - get your game on”. at the center, a narrow drive-up service window, over which a faded painted sign hangs, reading “small ICE cocktail cubes at the drive up”. to the right is another window, surrounded by bright blue shuttere.

little ongoing project where i photograph something every time i visit my dismal hometown. (my parents are so so sedentary that i go batshit crazy just sitting on the couch in silence with them, so i take a walk or two a day around town.)

this installment: a “drive thru” liquor store (AND storage service?) down the way from my parents’ house. yes, the blue is THAT blue.
