Ruins



Time makes ruins ferment. An intoxicating dark drink for the eyes. Take the ruins at the junction of Highway 43 and Pond Road north of Wasco in California's Central Valley. Best to go on a day of hazy sun, when it is warm but not hot. Late October is a good bet, when the sun begins to slant, casting elongated shadows. Torn up rails run between ruins and road, while eucalyptus trees stand by the way. In the shade a Taco and Burrito Truck has food prepared for tongue.
