I almost forgot to post a pic for this month. I set mine (➜ [Monthly Photo Competition #34 – September, 2025 – “Doors or gates” - #26 by Bullitt](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/monthly-photo-competition-34-september-2025-doors-or-gates/1022743/26) ■ ) aside weeks ago and thought I’d keep my eye out for doors and gates through the month, but I kept forgetting. So I’m going with it.

My picture is from early winter 2009, driving home on a road trip back from Texas, a Thanksgiving at my mom’s house in Houston. We were driving across Nevada on US-50, “The Loneliest Road in America”. I think we were in central Nevada. Maybe western Nevada. I’m certain this was on the south side of the road. I saw it as my wife and I drove past it, then I doubled back to admire it.

I wonder if it is still there, some 16 years later?
