Another thing that doesn’t make sense
When I look inside abandoned places, I nearly always see something that doesn’t make sense, that’s out of place, that’s unexpected.*
In this case it was the chairs. Oh, and that lettering on the wall.

*The Patient Spouse maintains that one of these days I’m going to see a dead body. That may be why he generally waits in the car while I’m looking around.

At least the back door is secure.

I know! Of course every single piece of glass is gone from the windows in front, but still….

Are those drawings between the lettering? And why is there a 4×8 sheet of pegboard(?) behind the chairs? And, what is lurking beneath the stucco on that wall? There is a rectangular (of course) ghost bleeding through much of the wall at about 8 feet off the floor.
Ghost rectangles – I would have been locked in the car too, with windows closed, driving away as quickly as possible.

1. Yes. Mystery letters AND drawings!
2. That is pegboard. But I don’t know what its purpose is/was.
3. There is tile behind the stucco. Naturally. I guess.
4. Wall ghosts are generally rectangular. FYI.
5. I had the keys.

You took the keys!?! There is the sign of an experience, nay, a grizzled vet of photographing with another. You could write a how-to-take-photographs-with-another guide for the advanced photographer.

Keys – yep. Learned that the hard way….

Thanks, Sue. (I think if I were a younger photographer, my attention would be less drawn to decay…)

I wish this one COULD speak, because I really want to know the story behind that lettering.
