I am in awe.
I wish I could have been a fly on the wall, seeing all of this
first hand.
But, your pictures are just as wonderful.

I'm going to look at all the pictures you took.
What a find. Wow.

Isn't St. Anthony the one you pray to when you've lost something? I had a Catholic boyfriend who told me that, and a special prayer that one said, but I can't remember it now.

Yep, my grandmother used to say one too, but I can't remember it.

There's a few here: http://www.luckymojo.com/saintanthony.html

"Something's lost and can't be found
Please, St. Anthony, look around."

THAT is the one! Thank you! When I lost my work keys the other day I was driving myself insane trying to remember it! (and I'm not even Catholic)

Awesome dissertation as always! I need to find a place to get inside of one of these days.

Also, I want that 7-up carrier. I love old 7-up logos.

I've had my eye on an abandoned farm in Frankfort for the past couple months, but the weather has been a bitch on the few weekedns I've been totally free. Today I saw excavators invading... time is short. Sunday, methinks.

I'm game! Can we wear all black and wear black paint under our eyes like in the movies?

Hope your tetanus shots are up to date. I also love exploring abandoned buildings. Last year, my sister and dad and I found the remnants of the one-room schoolhouse where my dad went to elementary school. We, er, helped ourselves to a few mementos. Do you ever give in to the "souvenir" temptation?

That sign will probably stay in my car until the end of time, much like my Good Friends cereal box. Sometimes I wonder if I am a kleptomaniac because I am ALWAYS stealing things from everywhere I go. (except stores, and nothing that is valuable)

What are those birds that save lots of useless crap? Rooks? Crows? Magpies? Yeah, I'm one of those. :^)

Very enigmatic.
