April 23rd - Life In A Boxcar

I've been by this place over and over again, always on my way somewhere, and everytime I say I need to stop and take a picture.
This morning I did.
I just love that here is an old boxcar, past it's prime, but not too far gone that it can't be used for storage.
Or, more likely, used as a place to live.
Anytime I've ever been by this place, there's been a car parked outfront.
Parked the same way you park a car in front of your house or apartment.
The other thing I love is the old Santa Fe advertising is still visible on the side.
