corner - Winslow, Arizona


No, not that corner - that's about three blocks up - but a small, closed diner, that looks as though it's been closed a long time.   With the exception of our favorite Arizona hotel, La Posada, most of Winslow looks as though it's been closed a while - a once busy railroad town that still has plenty of long trains passing through (I counted ninety three cars on one, at breakfast, until it stopped ... goodness knows how much longer it trailed on for).   It was a brilliant, cold morning, with wonderful light for photographs - but unfortunately we had to hit the gas and skedaddle off quickly to LA and the MLA.   The Standard is a quite other world from downtown Winslow ...
