Abandoned places

It's great to be home after a very busy Country Living Fair in Stone Mountain, Georgia. While we were set up at that show we also had a booth at home in Franklin at Pumpkinfest. Needless to say last weekend was a busy one and I'm glad to be home with our dogs and enjoy Halloween weekend with help from some Stephen King movies and homemade chili. Also this weekend I have spent some time searching on pinterest for some of my favorite things....abandoned buildings and houses. I just love them and it seems like to perfect time of year to enjoy them. There is just something about them that tells a story. They usually have a great crusty patina that I like and I can't help but be fascinated with them. Here some of my favorite abandoned things...

I have a board on pinterest called yesterday's memories that has lots of cool images of abandoned places, automobiles, carnival rides and other great abandoned subjects. Thanks for taking the time to check out my blog and check out the original links and locations to these images via pinterest.
