Despite Ektachrome being cancelled in 120 and 35mm formats, I happened to find a decent sized stash in the back of my stores, mostly E100VS. Over the Easter weekend I had a chance to go south to Tennessee, and one of my stops was the towns of Bristol. Why towns? Simple there are two Bristols, one in Virginia and one in Tennessee, and they share a common downtown along State Street, as the name implies is the State line. When I stopped in on the town on my way down I was quickly rained out, but Monday as I started the long drive back home, the weather was perfect so I took an hour and just wandered along State Street. Of other interesting fact&#8230;Bristol is the birthplace of Country Music.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 716px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/6962055144\/\" title=\"Downtown Bristol VA\/TN\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/8163\/6962055144_fe74443a4a_b.jpg\" width=\"716\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"Downtown Bristol VA\/TN\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>I wonder what is behind these shutters.<br \/>\nPentax 645 &#8211; SMC Pentax A 645 35mm 1:3.5 &#8211; Kodak Ektachrome E100VS &#8211; Processing By: Silvano&#8217;s<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/6962051944\/\" title=\"Downtown Bristol VA\/TN\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/7081\/6962051944_d5766a9c8c_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"723\" alt=\"Downtown Bristol VA\/TN\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>Another building that has seen better days but has an amazing steel sign.<br \/>\nPentax 645 &#8211; SMC Pentax A 645 35mm 1:3.5 &#8211; Kodak Ektachrome E100VS &#8211; Processing By: Silvano&#8217;s<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/6962048586\/\" title=\"Downtown Bristol VA\/TN\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/8148\/6962048586_d8264facd2_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"748\" alt=\"Downtown Bristol VA\/TN\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>Another awesome steel sign.
