Ghost Slide
The difference between this abandoned school and all the other ones I’ve shot is that the Patient Spouse attended two years of elementary school here, which made the desolation a little more depressing.
But those two slides, barely holding their own against the onslaughts of time and weeds, turn a sad place into a creepy one…

It is quite creepy. Probably a happy place in its heyday.

My Patient Spouse, who went to grade school there, has only happy memories of the place. So there’s that.

I feel sad whenever I see places like this. I try to think of how it used to look like and now it seems like a memory. 😭

Yes, it is just a memory. And a building that’ll fall down one of these days. There’s a lot of rural American that looks this very same way, unfortunately.
