Third

The third place we found was setting way back off the road and we had to hike from the road because I didn't want to risk getting stuck in knee deep snow.  Needless to say I got a good workout, which is good because since I hurt my back with an unknown cause, I haven't been able to run.

We hiked up to the front door and was greeted with disappointment.  The floor portion of the front of the house was totally caved in.

That was sad, so we went around back to see if we could get in.

The back door worked!  Here is what we seen:

Here is the front room that was caved in:

Since the floor was mostly in the basement, we were not able to get to the second floor of this place.

What I found most amazing about this home was that normally when people leave or abandon a home, they take everything, sometimes down to the wires, literally. This house still had everything, in disarray but it was there, in the back entryway there was still a tv and a chair under all the rubble and trash. So, it leaves me to wonder did these people pass on or just walk away from their lives and treasures?


Now I said last post that I found my most favorite shot up to date and, drum roll please:

I know, it's three different tones of the same shot, but I am really loving this shot and now that I am done with these places, I will begin work on the abandoned factory that I went into last weekend and hopefully we may be able to get out and go another way this weekend! Stay tuned to find out and watch for the factory photos!!
