No, I just shoot what I see, although I might kick a soda bottle or some other trash out of the way that really stands out.

it's still beautiful!

This one is very beautiful, its very calming

Often, used and/or old medical equipment from hospitals, etc. cannot be easily reused once the facility shuts down, especially if it was a state owned facility - unless the regulations of that state allow it to be recertfied for other use. This usually applies to sophisticated electrical or electronic equipment such as x-ray machines, etc., which often have aged to the point where it isn't worth the repair/upkeep costs to get them recertified, if they can be recertified at all once moved. At some point equipment is just too old to be used anymore. This shouldn't apply to implements like pictured here, as age does not really affect them, but regulations for use apply to them as well. Part of the problem is there doesn't seem to be much of a market for old medical tools. A state just can't give taxpayer owned items away without legislative action, and I'd imagine if there a big demand for these implements some bright entrepreneur would have petitioned the state to purchase them for resell. Perhaps someone will. Shame for them to just sit.

How could any one let children live in such deplorable conditions, now they pay the price thru the wrath of god.

scary

Yeah, thanks Iceberg - sigh - caretaker nursing down on knees, outside doors, all along the hallway - the things we Human Beings dream up + invent is ludicrous + risible at times. Imagine it.

I contacted Carola Lott from the Independent and she said the place was shored up and planners are deciding what to do and something should be happening by spring- sure hope none of the big STUFF happens till I am there

The character is the Chinese character for "mǔ" or "mother."

That's a fairly straightforward interpretation of Saint Mary, but I wonder why someone put it in Chinese... Fascinating.

I like clowns

I wanna read them

I actually like the tiles. Also, those dressers are cool

@feather I think it was a patient room. In old hospitals they must've had those for privacy instead of modern white curtains

@feather I'd believe that's where the staff worked and the patients couldn't go beyond that point

Cool
