Thanks for displaying Dixmont before its demolition, Motts. I hope it was well worth the LONG drive for you to see this ancient Kirkbride in her last days of existence. When I'd read that article on it being turned into a Wal-Mart Supercenter, it made me ill. One might think that the saveable parts of the building would be useable and they could have enough acreage there left over for Wal-Mart, too.

Thank you again Motts for sharing another grand old beauty with us before it's forever gone. Great work!

I'm on your side Lynne. :)

I second that motion Motts. That's why I love that you do what you do. If I was with you I'd shake your hand.

So damn sad.

Before and After shots are my favourites. :) I can't get over the change, it makes me so sad.

Yes, it looks like nature is slowly sneaking up on a bunch of sleepy eyes....

Cool beans!

Great shot Motts, it looks like there's a skylight near the end. Lynne, thanks for the links, very itneresting!

This really reminds me of a previous recent photo you took Motts where there were no floors left and a sink and cabinet hanging onto the wall for all they were worth.

Wow, and Mother Nature takes over.....

Oh good grief, people. Everyone knows its a tall dust bunny that escaped out the window. Tsk!

Lonesome looking thing.....

Fabulous shot Motts!

Gads, those are the ugliest curtains I've ever seen.
