Oy, Wanderer.Stop putting yourself down
mate.Your photos had nothing wrong with
them at all.They were to me mate (as been
said before) of an old lady just waiting for
her time to be done with this world.I would
also think that she is loving all the attention
that she has received over the years.Every
photo that you took has a memory to you
of your trip,and the steps you took to take it.
By the way,whose the ROCKER from
Millbrook?

Thank you but that is not my work. I just thought you'd appreciate the work of another fan. I think that guy lives in the NY metro. If you look at the rest of his site it seems to be mainly the old institutions that failed in the last half of the 20th century.

this time it was different and don't know why but she seemed like an old tired lady -must compare old pics with new ones PWR probably sees the small crumblings more than I could but was glad the fence is close to the building so i was out front to get the pics

wanderer, how was she looking? I know sometime has passed since the photo here was taken, so, any big changes in her looks? How is she holding on as well, good or not so much? Sorry for the many questions, but as you said, a lot of us can't get to see her in person & we rely on you all that do get to see her, in person, for the info & stories about her.

the trip was the best - always good to be in Millbrook - as said in another post I walked the perimeter of the grounds taking pics- the trees got in the way -what a heady thing being in the presence of the OLD girl so many on the board can't be there- so i'ts special - as usual went to see the home of my favorite ' rocker' - the reason i went to Millbrook- don't feel special about your computer the darn things have a mind of their own- they call it technology at least U can get thru

A complete shame the city or town would have let such a gorgeous place fall into complete ruin!! Everyone who lives there should be ashamed of themselves!

say Flora I am not an expert so must get someone else to publish them and where do i do this so others can see them - i feel like history ;everytime I go there - PWR what is the cottage which has a Bavarian look- between Bennett commons and Halcyon hall - was there but didn't go in - the fence was not around it and I thought i had xplored that area thoroughly

few trips away in it.Man Ive seen some
real nice ones that cost a bomb.We didn't
spend heaps but enough to be comfortable.
Shower and convience,you know,dont want
to be caught out aye.Who knows mite find
some cool old buildings to add to the photo
collection.We are coming into summer over
