Found this old abandoned park on the way to Chicago.....I am not usually prone to HDR type images but on this particular image I liked the juxtaposition of the old and the new.....

Toldeo Gun Shop

Gun Shop - Toledo

I was driving out of Toledo last week when I caught this image out of the corner of my eye....not something I usually stop for but today could not resist the juxtaposition of guns, ominous sky and corn...So I turned around and went back.....All I kept thinking was 'Ain't that America'......

Abandoned House, North Fork, Long Island

'What is the use of a house if you haven't got a tolerable planet to put it on'.....Thoreau

Found this wonderful abandoned house on the way to Shelter Island this weekend. Yet another testimonial to a dis-appearing America. Can't help but wonder if walls could talk.....
