Along 318

After heading back on the road, I passed by this old store by the small community of Turner. The store probably used to be quite busy back in the olden days, but now it's quiet. The signs on the front are faded and rusty.

I had a good laugh at this old Pepsi machine, sitting right below a Coca-Cola sign. That's some good Product Placement there.

I started driving south down Hwy. 318, and then stopped at this old cotton gin. There aren't too many working cotton gins left in the state now since most of the crops produced here are rice and soybeans. This old gin, complete with broken windows, looks to be used for storage.

South of the old cotton gin was this field, full of healthy looking soybeans. A dirt road cuts through the field, heading off under a sky filled with fluffy white clouds.

Further down the road, in the small town of Lambrook, was this old church that was nearly shrouded in vines and plants.

On the other side of Lambrook was this old church, which looks like it's actually still used for services.

And one last shot, of an electical pole by the old church. The pole has a bit of lean to it, which to be fair it is hard to be outside in the Summer in Arkansas without getting knocked sideways sometimes.
