I’ve Seen Better Days
As is the case with so many older buildings in the vicinity this one has been left abandoned and deteriorating but this one may be getting a reprieve.
Today I drove by on my meandering path to pick THE BOSS up from work and I noticed that all the overgrown shrubbery as well as a several “trash trees” (really nothing more than overgrown weeds) had been cut down.
Most of the old siding has been stripped away to expose the original clapboards and there are other signs of recent work performed. If the building was to be demolished it would be a pile of rubble by now.
I really like to see these old buildings brought back to life. The tales those old walls could tell……
How are you feeling?
I sure hope this old timey house will be restored fully. I’m sure it would have a lot of stories to tell us.

Much better, thanks, but still not entirely up to speed. That’s partially due to the cold, damp weather and getting over the effects of the drugs takes a few days, as well. I normally don’t take the heavy duty ones unless I absolutely have to for precisely that reason.

I’m always happy to see an old building of almost any kind returned to its former “glory.”
