This is the interior of a 1954 International truck. I assume the guy really wanted a Cadillac, instead.

If I remember correctly, this was considered a really crappy car at the time - oh, maybe that was the Nova. But, my grandson tells me he'd love a Corvair.

As with all these detail shots, the whole car is in the Cars Album.

Abandoned cafe
Potato cellar
| |
|
|
|
Just one of hundreds of potato cellars in this region of southern Oregon and northern California. The newer replacements are, of course, big metal ones as in the background here. A lot of the old wood ones are still in use, but not necessarily for storing potatoes. The lower portion of these old ones is below ground level.

Screened building

|
|
Abandoned at least three years ago, but probably no longer as the metal screen isn't rusty, yet. It was a commercial butchery and I hate to imagine the amount of flies that were here - ugh!
Back of the butchery

|
This is located way out in the country. I do not know how long this has been abandoned, but it still smells strongly of old beef and faint wood smoke. It was sad, repulsive and fascinating. This is, apparently, a combination that attracts me. : 0

"Man-stairs" leading up to a catwalk beside the cattle ramp. (Does that make sense?)
