The Army Navy Store Road is seven miles long and was named after Thompson’s Army Navy Store that used to be located there over 40 years ago. The surplus store is no longer there, but the road still retains that name. I shot an entire roll of film along it’s length yesterday and this was the first shot of the journey. Just a couple miles from my home in Norris City, Illinois, which is in White County, it becomes Hamilton County, where this road is located.

This film expired 26 years ago and there seemed to be some color shift. The one button fix in the Adobe Photoshop program I used made it look better.
