Emergency!

There was just a major fire in my town, about six blocks from my house. A lumber store caught fire, with a gas station on either side of it at risk of burning. I saw fire trucks and emergency vehicles from a lot of the communities in this area. Fortunately, they were able to contain the fire and avert the possibility of one of the gas stations catching fire and going up in a big explosion. Firefighters are a special breed.

These were my cousins, Geoffrey, Deonna and Yvonne, (Dad's brother Deon's kids) when they were visiting where I worked at a Pizza Hut restaurant. I happened to have my trusty Agfa 126 Instamatic camera and snapped a few shots. This was taken 34 years ago.

1953 Buick Skylark Convertible

I have literally said for decades that, if I were extremely wealthy, my dream car would be a 1953 Buick Skylark convertible. When I passed by this one on the road, I had to stop and go back to take a picture of it. They certainly don't make 'em like this anymore! This would be my absolute dream car for sure!

My Dad had a 1956 Buick when I was young and that's the reason I've always liked Buicks.

The biggest house in my little town. Nobody has lived in it for forty years or so. This camera came as a freebie that was thrown in with a lens I purchased. It didn’t have the battery door anymore, so I substituted one from a Pentax K1000 and it seemed to work.

The Old Glove Factory

HaarFager has posted:

This building used to house the glove factory that used to be here in town. For about a month, when my family moved to Norris City back in 1974, my Mom worked at the glove factory. She did this to help bring in an income until Dad’s electric motor repair shop could get established. I don’t think the glove factory lasted past the 1970s.

This disposable camera was one I bought back in 2013 and I’m finally getting around to using it. You can’t use a camera you got at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, in Springfield, Illinois, just anywhere!

We’ve had a new business open up recently and it’s a coffee house in the heart of the downtown area. What’s notable about it, at least for me, is that they’ve licensed some of my photography for use in their decor. That was nice of them. This is the first time I’ve ran some color film through my Jiffy Kodak II. It originally took 620 film, but I loaded some 120 to feed onto an original 620 take-up spool and it worked.
