Another scene from Ovid, a small town in Idaho. Downtown Ovid has three buildings – a school, a boarded up church that I posted a shot of a few days ago, and this doll shop. Not sure why it caught my eye like it did but it just seemed to be an odd thing to find in the middle of Idaho farm country…

Ting’s Bar, found along the back roads of western Montana. I like the character of this building. It looks like it has been expanded, rebuilt, and used for 10 different things over the years. It’s also the first time I have seen a bar advertising a cribbage board as a major attraction…
