Windows with Green Awnings

At the far end of Abilene, there's a building with windows and green awnings.  The building might be used as an event space, but I've never seen anyone go in or out of it.  

The building looks like it's being taken care of.

Another Abandoned Structure

At the end of Abilene there's another abandoned building.  It looks like there might be some restoration going on, but not sure.

Vacant Building on South Side

This corner building is vacant and has been for a number of years.  The wood is painted blue but the windows and doors are boarded up with no access to the inside.

Wonder what the building was originally?

Electric boxes on Pole

There's a vacant lot on a corner in downtown Abilene that is empty except for these electric boxes.

I don't now what they do or what they power, but this empty lot has been like this since I've been here 

for the past 7 years.

It was a fun experience.

Old Bank Building

The vacant/abandoned bank building was seen in a totally forsaken small town.  I thought it was wild that there was a cactus growing out of the roof.

Alley Doorway

This doorway is located in an alleyway in town.  Just a simple door and window.

Crown of Thorns

In one of the vacant store fronts in downtown Abilene, there are paintings on display.  I've passed this painting several times in the past, but finally decided to make an image of it this time.  

I think it's beautiful.  The other paintings are gorgeous too.

Retro Mailboxes

I was in a building in a small town near Abilene and they had a wall of retro items on display.

These two old mailboxes were on the wall.  I wish we still had these for our mail.

The framework was still there, but the bridge headed off at a different angle over a creek.
