I do.
Hope so. I don't use near as much as I use to.

The Tisá Rocks or Tisá Walls (Czech: Tiské stěny; German: Tyssaer Wände) are a group of rocks in Tisá in the Czech Republic. It is located in the western Elbe Sandstone Mountains, not far from its topographical boundary with the Ore Mountains. The region, with its rock pillars up to 30 m high, is one of the major tourist attractions of the region. The Tisá Rocks and the neighboring Bürschlické Rocks are protected as a natural monument.

No longer standing, this was located in the mountains of Cruso NC. Friends and I ran across this while on a road trip while in college. I’m thinking it was about 1969 or 70. I didn’t have a camera with me at the time but went back around 1976 with my 8x10 Deardorff camera and 1900’s Protar VIIa lens and made a series of images.
Many years later I was talking to a friend from that area and he told me the trading post was abandon in the1930’s and stood unoccupied until torn down.

Inside the convenient store of the 1970’s. The store still stands not far from my house but unfortunately has been abandon for many decades. On the left is the retired sheriff and to the right is the owner Hank who had been the county highway commissioner.
I spent 55 years as a commercial and documentary photographer. I lived in Appalachia since I was 3 years old and the disappearing culture has always been my primary documentary interest. Now I’m glad I preserved decades of these images, over 100,000, because they’re pretty much gone but I’m always on the lookout for something or someone I missed.
The second image is from a serpent handling church service in the mountains of East Tn.

View from my porch. This gendarme pulled up, put on rubber gloves and spent 10 minutes photographing and inspecting the Fiero.
It hasn't moved from that spot since December. Someone must have complained
'Twere'nt me.

Reminds me of how I got a lifetime supply of 9mm brass. Years ago when they decided to arm our Canadian Border Services officers, they booked a couple of three-day blocks at my local range for training. I went up late one afternoon after they had left and there were buckets and buckets full of empty brass. I didn't even have a 9mm at the time but I figured it was too good an opportunity to pass up
Neighbors sent these from Marco Island.
