low key ruin porn (July 27th)


About half way between Santa Fe and Albuquerque is a pre-recession attempt - maybe some ten or twelve years old - to grab the tourist market: a complex that certainly advertised all kinds of amusements and food and little shops and treats.  But.  I never saw anyone actually turn in there, although I have it on reliable authority that at least once, a coach trip from Albuquerque to Santa Fe carrying members of the Renaissance Society of America were forcibly taken there for half an hour or so.


And then it was abandoned, and for a few years had a very, very optimistic sign up saying that it was available for film shoots,


but I have a feeling that it will slowly slide back into the desert.
