A Shadowy Past

If ever you find yourself anywhere near the little town of Wabash Indiana, do yourself a favor and park the car. Get out. Roam around. Bring extra batteries for your camera and talk to the people you meet.

Shadowy Past

The downtown area and surrounding neighborhoods are studded with architectural marvels from the turn of the century. This mysterious staircase leads into the shadowy recesses of the Bradley Building, built in 1880. According to one of the fellows visiting together outside the junk store there, the Wabash and Erie Canal once ran directly behind the building.

The staircase leads to a ballroom on the top floor. Can't you just imagine the ladies and their gents, decked out in their finery, arriving for a night of music and dancing?

Shadow Woman




Sunset gilds the pines.
Shadow Woman comes to greet the moon.

Ruby Tuesday: We Sell Boxes



A couple of days ago I posted a detail of this engine for the Round Robins' current challenge, By the Numbers. People seemed to connect with it, so I thought maybe you'd like to see the full view.

Shadow Shots: Room With a View

Red Windowframes

These are old ones that I've posted before, but they're favorites of mine. Besides, I don't have any worthy new ones. The windows with their age-rippled glass panes belong to a cabin on the grounds of the Adirondack Museum in New York, and the moose antlers are inside the museum.

Round Robins: Numbers




This old firetruck now serves as a lawn ornament for a store that sells boxes. I often imagine it sighing as it watches traffic go by.


It's fun with numbers week at Round Robins Photo Challenge. Be sure to visit the other entries, OK?
