-OUT OF GAS-
Shoshone, CA February 2007


There is an old car outside the Shoshone Museum, and also a few old gasoline pumps. This is a detail from one of them.

We were both drawn to this image, Tim. On face value, it appears to be a statement about the past, a gas hose destroyed by the elements. However, might it also be a prophecy about the future and our reliance on gasoline which, sadly, might also have corrosive consequences?
