Feed Store at Night

Here is a local feed store that's been around a long time. It's like walking back in time.

Nice shot. Feed stores and feed store employees are some of my favorites. A year or so ago we started
having our horse feed delivered just so we could visit with the various young men (most college students
or aspiring calf ropers). Some interesting young men. If I am feeling good on the days they deliver (every couple of weeks) I will give the kids a $100 tip. They use our skidsteer and unload the feed and play with our dogs. Good kids. They always make me (and my wife the boss) smile.

It is a great shot and the conversion has the proper amount of contrast that I like in my b&w images.
Excellent!
Excellent!

That's great...strikes this film noir enthusiast just right. Expect a few bad guys to walk out any second

Nice work there--my kind of photo, my kind of store. With a touch of change here and there, this could be the place where I hang out at least once a week.
I have really enjoyed this one.

Yes, as another reviewer mentioned, the stages of association with a feed store. I used to back up to the dock several times a month to load the tons of cubes onto my flatbed. Finally got to where it made life easier to have them delivered and stacked in the feed room.
Thanks for creating the wave of nostalgia this morning.

I enjoy photos of old buildings because there is so much history locked inside.
Thanks for sharing.

Instead of having two skids of alfalfa cubes, 20 bales of bermuda and a ton of Safe Choice delivered today,
maybe I will just hook up the trailer, light up a cigar, load up Scooter the world's greatest Jack Russell and go to the Hay and Feed Ranch and see Andy and the boys. It's a 50-mile round trip into Stephenville but I'm not sure I could spend a half day any better than that.
Surely there's something else I could do in town today. Ooops. Just thought out it. I need to pick up that new mineral feeder. And stop by and see Ted, my best friend since high school in the 1950s.
Have a good day, everyone. And thanks for that feed store photo.
