I was curious what made this dog’s mouth so red, but the possibilities were a little bit worrying, especially after it proceeded to object loudly to have it’s photo taken

Our Ajo neighbor’s dog shown in one of it’s quieter moments. (It is afflicted with a bad case of barkitist, a rather rampant disease in Ajo.)

A Shadow of It’s Former Self
Ajo, Arizona
2025
Back in the day, Ajo had a bustling train station. Today the depot building has been converted into the local visitor’s center. On the railing out front there is a metal cut-out of a train. In the late afternoon it’s shadow looks like a train crossing a high trestle.

Sitting Places #18
Ajo, Arizona
2025
The porch of my favorite rundown house in Ajo (of which there are many to choose from). It’s unclear whether or not anyone is actually living there. The porch lights are on continuously but there are broken windows etc. and no signs of current activity there. It’s a well designed stone house fixer-upper with a lot of possibilities but a lot of work needed as well. In fact it may be past the point of no return on it’s way to oblivion.

Failed Effort
Ajo, Arizona
2025
Ill conceived and poorly executed. It’s been in this state of abandonment for at least the two years since we started spending time in Ajo. I can’t help but imagine the designer/builder throwing up their hands in disgust and walking away from the project. Perhaps though, they still saw promise in the place and just ran out of money.
