just got back nite from seeing the old girl and am glad i knew of the collapse or would've been shocked-however i looked at my last years pics and saw the same white antenna attached to the chimney of the right of the collapse and wire going into the window below-what is this? if the place is dangerous what purpose does it serve ? yep a fence is around it but not too intrusive-i walked as much of the area behind Bennet Commoms as i could but the trees are soo big it looks the same as years to past -windows broken out -the integrity of the building pretty good- my pics were blocked by the trees on the front of the building not muxh worthy of posting- sorry Flora-njoyed the trip and am determined to see her again next-as am sure she'll be there

Kudos Pat- holding the old tongue in valor of a G rated post- everything U said is true when I first went to Millbrook I thought of it as a Stepford village but Norman Rockwell is better - and the remark of antique driven village is also true however it seems to be the trend here- Pa. IA.---- and the real estate cabals drinking feverishly- are they throwing out the baby with the bath water ? U'll see me by the side of the road taking pics but how close do I dare go? should I paste a no trespassing sign on my back -when I get back from my visit U can be sure i'll lbeat my gums on this one

at least the pic was recent but stated the demo won't make it for Oct 1- was holding my breath- can always take a pic thru the fence

i have been thru the gamut of sites and nuthin' new but a really wowie one is done by F,A. Manzi- quoted on the board earlier- excellent on side shots and worthy of searching for however maybe the"Independent" will have some of the fence- I'd be interested if they do or will Ratchet inform us
search under Bennett school or Halycon hall

looks like I may have to do a shimmy to get a back view of the old girl progress ruins my fun but the folks in Bennett Commons will surely see a surge in INVADERS - not a hint for anyone- will try download new pics on Picasaweb {?}

is it mindless to put up the fence up so soon to a supposed demo ? guess - I"ll see soon enuff - how close is the fence to the building ? I do believe the walls of Jericho came down faster -------

pat- your candor kills me - when U talk of the Indpendent not getting to your house it sounds like u live in Timbukk Tu
wrote:
is the exterior of the building affected ? am so xcited to get there can only hope it to be able to see some if her demise say there Pat was any of this in the 'Independent'

Ratchet is not checking in so maybe he'll have a rant over the fence pretty soon -i am a month from being there so hold on will check in after my VIEWING of the travesty - want a hurricane- certainly can find one for Ya
