A friend sent this to me and we do not know exactly where this is nor when the photo was taken. At any rate, this looks like one of those backroads places "where all those rusty things happen to go..." I think I'm right because this is one of my favorite kind of places here in Earth. I have always adored junkyards, salvage yards and other rural locales naturally decorated with decades of patina upon their gone (but not forgotten) soldiers of this country's yesteryears that continue living, even if it's still-life.....

Added Note 09/2212: Thanks to Chip McElwee...this location still exists and it is in Johnson City, TX. It's known as Lacey's Feedmill Restaurant, located at 104 S. Nugent in the forementioned community. Chip also reports that the motorcycle still is atop the old fuel tank but the vintage automobile is gone. Nice to see this kind of Americana nowadays....and I bet the food at Lacey's is outstanding too ;-)
