Jan Pinkowitz, Hello there, I didn't purposely not respond to you on here, I honestly never saw you leave me a comment on here, it was an oversight on my part, that's all, it was done to be mean at you, that is not the type of person I am or ever was either. I am truly sorry for your horrible time at Gaebler and the drugging and abuse you got, no, you did not deserve it, none of us did, it was horrible to say the least. I will never understand how any of these social workers,so called Dr's got away with the treatment of us children, that is what we were, we were children and led to believe that we were horrible and bad and we deserved the treatments they gave us, I never had Mike in the cafeteria be mean at me, I don't know if he was there when I was there 82-84, I can't remember any of their names, the only one I can remember is Manuela Carrion as she was 1 of the cooks there and was so nice to me and the kids. She truly cared about us kids. thank you for the website, I will check it out, I do have a lot going on in my life right now, so if I don't get back to you, please don't take it personally, I have 2 chronically ill children with no cures, a sick mother and a husband with COPD, and I work, I will try and check on here more often, once again I am truly sorry....

Pookie has not been here for so.e time I know that for a fact. She will visit soon

I just noticed the piers on the right. That one closest to us has a pipe support mounted on it probably for a 12" line.

That orange one on the right HAS to be from the 70s

Thanks! Nope I haven't had any kind of experience like that.

It's been a long time since I've visited, I can't recall...

The brick shape hinted at that, but I can't image what it would be for. Maybe it's the byproduct of shredding documents? It was located in the administrative offices...

No, not syringes... they look like large nails with the heads slightly bend, perhaps some assembly part?

The blue light is from an LED flashlight used when I walked back there; it emits a much cooler light temperature than the maglite that's illuminating the foreground.

I think the caretaker had left by the time I started exploring Packard, although I do recall the very Northernmost building still being used at that point.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_(negative) It does say that it is a key word in Buddhism, it would make sense that when the Buddhist group moved in they put this symbol.

Me and my roomate went inside the other night inside we saw dried blood and heard whispers also saw shadows and we went into of the rooms and saw a doll house the entire room was dust covered except the doll house that was when we left and heard screaming as we left the building

"In October 2013, a Spanish investor, Fernando Palazuelo, also expressed interest in securing the Packard Plant. It was purchased for $405,000 on December 12, 2013." (credit to Wikipedia). He has done a lot of cleanup. Even put a Packard banner back on the bridge.

It always heartwarming to hear that ones kind words makes one feel better
