One can find all sorts of exotic flowerings along the overgrown roads and paths of The Abandoned. These blossoms were especially beautiful.
Further on Sissy and I discovered this red smoke tree overtaking this graceful twirl of stone stairs.
The tree seemed almost nonchalant, as it rested on it's elbows, to peek over the railing.
The back of this enormous building seemed foreboding...
Once inside Sissy and I discovered the magnificent fireplace had been stained with what looked like blood. There seemed to be a heavy darkness in the air. Why would someone do this?
Back outside in the sunny parking lot, we both felt released from the darkness we had found in the bowels of The Abandoned.
The innocence of a flock of small birds were a delight to the eye and food for the soul.
I stood for a moment, wondering. Is there hope for The Abandoned? One can only dream about such things.
