A While Back on 29

Taking a break from nature for just a moment to look back. Route 29 in Charlottesville, just east of the airport. By 2004 when these pictures were taken the only thing left were signs.

The motel was on the east side of Route 29. Now at that intersection there is a Walgreens and to the north just across Profitt Road, a brand new Wawa. Times change. I love to capture what will soon be gone just before it disappears.
