F is for Fuller's Feed Store ~ ABC Wednesday


Fuller's Feed Store
Hemphill, Texas

The local feed store is an important part of rural America.  
This picture was shot on a Sunday when the store was closed; 
that's why the various items are stacked in front of the doors.

Brilliant shot. So many colors and textures. A shot of Americana that's too fast fading away.

Rusty and pretty! I think we used to go through that town when we traveled the country roads to visit in The Woodlands.

Both nostalgic and vibrant. Lucky alliteration. My favorite part is the Red Wing Boots.

People are very trusting in your neighbourhood. Nothing is left outside shops in this 'respectable' area of UK.

I love the smell of feed stores. They all smell like...well...feed. It's an earthy smell. Then there is usually such an odd assortment of things to see. So much fun...another F word. :)
