    For some reason those are really creepy pictures. I think it's because of how huge those cars are and almost completely buried. It's like a slow, painful death.

    Good stuff

    This is the house my wife's mother grew up in. Her cousin is not taking very good care of it...

    California got tired of fixing this one and built the replacement road about a 1/4 mile inland.

    On the return from a 10 day trip passed an abandoned farm house in rural Missouri. Turned around to check it out. Appeared as if the owners just walked away from it all, including everything inside. Was fearful of crashing through a rotting floor so just a few pics. Actually, I thought it was kinda creepy.

    Creepy is right. Makes me want to know the story of the last inhabitants.
