It was a house that was sitting alone on the side of the road. There was no front door so you could stand on the cement porch steps and see straight in. This was taken looking through the front door right to the back. It had obviously seen hard times with the warped floor and the torn water stained walls. There was still something quiet and peaceful about it though, as if the house accepted that it had been left behind. And as there was no sign of any person having been around for a long time, there were signs of wildlife. Birds, Lizards and the largest grasshoppers I had ever seen were just a few of the things scurrying around. I do not suggest waking into the building at all if you stop while passing by. The floor could be unsteady. #architecture #roadtrip](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248634998809039/c8d52e0e-23bd-4057-be1b-52cbd8df2586.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![This was another photo from my trip back in July 2014.
