2012, Day 75 - Remains

After getting thoroughly soaked twice today while walking the dogs I felt that a picture with a little warmth might be nice.  I suppose I could have gone further back into the archives to find something even more suitable but this one caught my eye.  The haphazard remains of the puddles, the reflection, the blue sky and the fire-damaged walls were enough for me.

This warehouse now looks almost like a campsite.  There is evidence of squatters everywhere, they have left messages and trash when they have moved on or been forcibly ejected.  On a clear days it is probably not a bad place to take refuge as there are a few cozy niches to be found and the neighborhood have relatively little traffic after the end of the business day.  There is something sad though, it is the same feeling you have after a party when everyone has gone and you're left with a mess to clean up and an eerily quiet house.
