I'm a free spirited aging hippie
who loves talking to flowers, chasing rainbows
and photographing all the beauty that surrounds us
Thanks for taking a peek into my little world

Curiosities of the Past

Old Schoolhouse or Church
 
Perhaps an old store and Mt Hood
 
Total Mystery
 
On the dry east side of the Cascades
there are ghost buildings everywhere

I'da guessed an outhouse or a shed. The artistic look of the photos is wonderful. But it's the buildings that intrigue me, the way they lean and the textures are just amazing.
