It makes me sad to see them in their abandoned state - where ivy and weeds have overgrown the side or front. I try to imagine what family (or families) lived there and what their story was. I sit and wonder why the property was left.
One of my dreams is to reclaim an old abandoned house and bring it back to what it was intended to be/look like. I search sites and blogs like http://www.historicproperties.com/results.asp and search tirelessly on listings of historical homes that need to be renovated. I especially like when they are located in a small town that is packed full of history. I would even love to maybe own my own "Dragonfly Inn" providing I have a "Sookie St.James" to run it with me.
Below are a few links of pictures of abandoned houses and other sites. What do you think / feel about abandoned buildings? I'd love to hear your experiences/stories!
Have a great fourth of July holiday weekend everyone!
