This was only a few years after the 2015 Conspiracy theories that military exercise Operation Jade Helm (https://www.texastribune.org/2015/07...e-helm-begins/) was really a plot to impose martial law and round up citizens to detain them in closed Walmart stores in west Texas... so I can't confirm whether there really is a basement underneath this Target
There was more graffiti when I was there. Being a van supported trip that I was on, I had my folding bike. Photo taken April 8, 2018.



Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase Big Box Stores. I do not recall if I looked inside, but I probably did not. Rattlesnakes sometimes hangout near abandoned building foundations, so I am careful near them.

I never heard of Jade Helm, ... fortunately. But I do not use social media like Facebook or Twitter or whatever Twitter is now called, so I often am clueless on what people are getting excited about. I get my information from genuine news media instead.
