Buildings

New ideas often need old buildings.

I love seeing old buildings. I don't really want them to fall down or fall apart. I often think, "Why did they fall into disrepair?" or "Who left or who didn't care or who didn't show up?" And then I think, "Why is that county sheriff mad at me for stopping in the middle of the road to take this picture and think about this building? That kind of rage can't be good for his blood pressure."
