In another portion of the abandoned school in Pine Grove Louisiana we found one classroom that still resembled it's original functioning design. The Science Lab. Valve mounts on the desktops for gas tubes that can connect to bunsen burners, small wash sinks on each island/workspace for cleaning up or rescuing the incidental burn moment. It was a surreal site to see.
Books still littered the lab, some open on the table tops to pages of experiments and exercises published around 1982. All the jars, bottles, and beakers still present had cultivated a white milky film making all the glass look frosted. Part of me wanted to take one, it filtered light so well, but the reality is it's probably toxic and the boy in me was squelched by the voice of a current father who wouldn't dare let my own children play with it, so my inner child gets corrected as well.
Ultimately this room made me think about post-apocalyptic movie scenes of the future. Is this what a classroom would look like months after someone dropped the nuclear bomb hundreds of miles away? I hope no one ever has to know that, again.
Crewe Heritage centre..........The museum is located between the junction to Chester and the West Coast Main Line, in the old LMS railway yard which was once part of Crewe Works. There are three signal boxes including the large, all electrically operated Crewe North Junction signal box, which the public can operate and look around. There is also an extensive miniature railway with steam, diesel and electric traction. Brake Van rides are available to the public during special events and galas. The most prominent exhibit of the museum is the BR Class 370 APT, which is open to the public and includes a number of exhibits associated with the APT and models. The Main Exhibition Hall features many artefacts and exhibits associated with Crewe from its locomotive and carriage construction, and famous junction railway station. A cylinder and Caprotti valve gear from BR Standard Class 8 4-6-2 Pacific, no. 71000 'Duke of Gloucester', which was constructed at Crewe Works in 1954 is also on display. The prototype of the Bentley Continental GT motor car, which was launched in 2003, and built at the nearby Bentley Motor Works in Crewe, is on display.

A deserted house on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation.
Later note: maybe something inside exploded through the roof.

Graffiti and decay from the Squirrel Cage historic jail in Council Bluffs, Iowa. These aren't great photos, but the subject matter is interesting:
The patented design allowed one jailer to rotate the entire, three-story cylinder (and all its prisoners) around in a circle using just a hand crank. The jail held 63 prisoners who could not leave their cells unless their cell was cranked around to the doorway. Built in 1885 for about $30,000, safety concerns eventually led the jail to be modified away from the original rotary configuration. The county quit using the jail altogether in the 1960s.
Intentional unclean darkroom handling resulted in solarization, incomplete fixation and paper decay. Additional sulfur toning.
This home scared me and intrigued me... there is something about old rundown buildings which makes it interesting... May be the mysterious feel... makes me wonder how it must have been in its heydays with kids running around and people living in there... laughter and tears... if it could only talk...
