time out
My Sunday drive destination was streets I'd not driven on in search of photo ops. Lubbock's streets are numbered; the avenues are named alphabetically A, B, C east of the courthouse square, after cities east of Mississippi (Akron, Boston, Canton) to the west of the court house and after universities to the northwest (Auburn, Baylor, Colgate). East of the alphabet avenues are the "trees" (Ash, Beech, Cherry) which is where I headed. Who knew there was a June tree (actually the June Berry tree) or that kapok really came from a Kapok tree? I found this dilapidated, bullet-pocked backboard near the Compassionate Heart Ministries, which doesn't appear to offer outdoor youth activities. This section of Lubbock probably has the majority of the 452 churches, with some type of chapel about every other block.
