Very interesting! Makes me think the fine old building will be demolished. Either that or something really bad is going to happen. Sounds like the beginning of a good novel.
ReplyDeleteA sad tale for today and well done! It is interesting to see how all of us see the same picture so differently! Hope you have a great week, Karen!

Very different take. Am always amazed that we all see something a little different in the picture each week.

ReplyDeleteA very nice ยต-fiction story full of intrigue.
You words coupled with the picture of this dreadfully old and gruesome looking building remind me of our execution chamber building at the Texas State Prison.

You make me wonder what's about to happen. An explosion maybe?
