The Home Place "The home, which we call The Home Place, has remained vacant and largely untouched for over 26 years. This week I entered the home for the first time in many, many years to photograph it. The images in this post are deeply personal and full of memories of, and for, my family." Amazingly lovely, melancholy photos.

I'm not sure I can bear to look at these -- I've been thinking about my own old home of 25 years ago, even looking at it on google maps.

And this just made me think of all the things we think are important now. Just laying there, not important, abandoned.

Click on the "PANCAKES!" link, y'all. Seriously. (You have to scroll past a bunch of ((lovely)) photos to get to the good stuff, but trust me: you won't be disappointed!)

I truly enjoy photos of places stuck in a time frame. These are really neat.

That baby squirrel killing vet under pancakes is one of my fears. I've known many kill happy vets. This is why I'm afraid to find Bees a new local vet.
