ha ha can't take a pic of this today

was there 4 years ago too bad I didn't go sooner but did make it- worth the trip and our guide was great

Awesome as always, thnx for sharing! Exploring that place must had been quite an adventure.

Not this type of construction. IMO, it was mostly a sales prop of fairly raw facades. Impressive and fun to go to back in it's hey-day, but nothing that would stand up to the elements in the area.

Or were they shoved the shoplifters.

Most stuff seen was bricks slathered with cement to smooth things out and make the contours and shapes. The water infiltration and freezing cycles had split everything to pieces.

I just know there's zombies in there.

It's said that a section of breakwater for the island was built with thousands of Springfield musket barrels banded together.

I'd like to think it went back to one of the descendants. I hope so.

The style of all the stuff is cool, but it wasn't built to go the long run. Some of the stuff looks pretty slap-dash. That's ok, that works for me, but trying to save anything is futile to a large degree.

Looks like a bench seat inside. I'm no stranger to old school outhouses, I'd use it. Hopefully there's no zombie under there that would bite my ass.

Every time there's a wind gust, get ready to run.

Or it says, "Don't feed the zombies."

It's claimed much of the cement used to build his castle was also bought from a surplus sale.

Very interesting comparison with the other photos on the Flickr page. I love trying to find what things are the same and what's changed.
