Your Official Picture Supplement to Jim & Frank PodCast 13
Here are the photographs Jim and I took during our exploration of the grim 'n' gruesome failed business district of Skyway, Washington...
First up: some views of what is, perhaps, the saddest failed grocery store in the Pacific Northwest, MY ELDORADO...
Depressing, bleak, hopeless...
Yep...
I have to face this thing on a daily basis. Was this really some poor deluded soul's El Dorado?
Following are a few more views of this unremitting heartbreaker....
Here's that abandoned, rusty gold Volkswagen Beetle we mentioned...
Now for a couple of shots of the soul-deadening casino we mentioned... it's very David Lynch-ish inside. Many millions of sucker-earned dollars have been taken from local yokels the hard way here:
A faded, once- fabulous 1950s BOWL sign takes some of the harsh edge off this depressing miasma of failure:
Whew--that's all you really need to get the picture.
Hey--for a heart-lifting chaser, here's an exclusive inside shot of Renton's fabulous JUST PARROTS!
Things seem happier already, huh? Who says there's no hope left in the world? Not us!
