Calling All Honeymooners

 Exploring what once was in a time where it is no longer. Imagining the life the buildings once had and the stories and secrets that they held.  Escaping your own reality and submerging yourself into another.  Abandoned to stand still and alone and slowly forgotten.

Good lawddddd I love me an adventure, and if it looks anything like the day pictured above I am one happy gal.  I have quite the fascination for abandoned spaces.  Not just warehouses or old buildings in city outskirts, but truly forgotten places.  When Erin asked if I'd be interested in visiting an abandoned honeymoon resort I couldn't get the word "duh" out fast enough.  Walking around I could just picture this place in all it's glory.  This hotel in it's prime must have been one hell of a site to see.  The space now has been trashed and raided with only a few rooms left partially in tact.  None the less you can get a good idea of what it must have been like to visit pre-graffiti days.  When i walk the grounds of a space like this my mind races with ideas of what it would have been like to live in that era and to have truly experienced all that once was.  That's the beauty of exploring a forgotten place, you only have your imagination to guide you through.

Fri-yay i have been waiting all week for you; time to let the weekend adventures commence.

Chipping Away

It baffles me how fast this summer is flying by already.  I know it's only officially been summer for a day or so now, but the June rising temperatures have had me in this summer state of mind for weeks.  I have such a busy schedule over the next month or so.  We're in a crazy time of year for work.  On top of the late hours i've been working i've also been trying to cram as many activities into my social schedule as i can.  The last thing i want to do is stay inside on these gorgeous days we've been having.  After an awful winter, it's nice to be outside or out with friends no matter how humid it may be.  I've learned to appreciate the good months, because when winter rolls around i know i'll end up going into hibernation until the snow melts away. 

Summer please slow down for me, i wish you would never end.
