Before I read the caption, I thought they were trees. My first thought was "Wow, they got trees growing in there" (LOL)

The thoughtful views that Serrena and others provide for these photos, is what makes this site so interesting. I have learned very valuable insight as to the how and why of so many things here.

Viewing the photos without reading the comments is like watching TV with the audio muted.

I have solved all the mysteries of this place.

1. It once doubled as an animal shelter. This also solves the mystery of the missing mattresses. When the place closed, they let the animals run free, and they ate the leftover bedding.

So where is the leftover residue? There was still a market for used feathers in the late 90's and they was all sold on eBay.

2. It could also be they is chicken cages, as I thought I saw chicken brooders in another picture.

So now we know. This place was run by Catholic farmers who raised chickens.

I better quit while I'm ahead... (LOL)

Maybe this place was run by Catholics. That would be "Those who hold up to carry a cross"
