How true Canada lol! :D We get a lot of snow here too (NorthEast Pennsylvania) but this past Winter hadn't beem too bad...we used to get a lot more snow from Nor'Easters blowing up the coast. Oh well.
I LOVE this shot...makes me want to walk out there...on second thought...I think I will stay here safe in my chair...in my computer room...lol. :D
This reminds me of City Museum in St. Louis--was an abandoned shoe factory. Unlike this, however, City Museum is just filled with... well... stuff the owners found within city limits and turned into a huge climb-over-it art exhibit. While there's very little "memory" involved other than all the bits that went into it, I still recommend it.
This Picture is from the very end of the Ride, on the door at the end was a picture of a very vicious cobra snake baring its fangs ready to bite the riders, and then the car bumped open the doors and you were at the end. I truely miss these days, my father, loved this ride, he would always screech and yell inside and people thought it was actually part of the ride!!!
They all had handles on the outside.
For some reason they have been removed.
Side rooms didn`t have observation windows apart from the ones where disturbed patients were placed for their safety. Only found on East and West 2, the male and female disturbed wards.
These rooms had blinds between two panels of plastic, the light fittings were in a recess in the ceiling and were covered so that they could not be broken and the glass used for self harm.
I was a CNM from 1986 to 1991 and worked nights by myself doing ward rounds. I visited all of the Laurels wards and never saw any ghosts or felt that the place was at all spooky.
Just wonderful Mr. Motts. It's hard to come up with adjectives that no one else has used. Fabulous portrayal of a beautiful church. Thanks for the new gallery.
