An enormous brick building with arches looms against the sky. It has many windows and many are broken.

I don’t have many #arch pictures, but here is a photo of the “abandoned” #BakerHotel in Mineral Wells TX for #BlueSkyArtShow. It has several arches. This thing dominates the skyline as one drives toward Mineral Wells (which is a small town).

This was insane to find!
I'm going through an extended family member's Baker Hotel stuff (she owned an antique shop across the street) AND FOUND A DRAG SHOW!!!!

I almost cried
