About Me

My photo
Adalbert is a forum for me, to post ephemera, photography, poetry, occasional travel notes, and various spontaneous motions. Cover photo: Parsonage where my great-grandfather spent his early years. Taken near Liegnitz, Silesia, ca. 1870. The "xothique" portion of the web address is a nod to Clark Ashton Smith's fictional continent of Zothique.

Latourell, Oregon


This postcard appears to be a modern creation, taken from a WWI-era card. But Latourell is an evocative place, at once inhabited, but with ghost town patches. Its lanes have known my footfalls.

  1. Great postcard. A sort of modern ghost town. I enjoyed the Wiki page, good photographs.

    1. Thanks for the comment, Ray. There's a fascinating kind of deterioration, in some of those photos.
