LOVE it. Am I too late to call dibs?

Exactly what I thought, Binky.

I was lucky to find your www.opacity.us site. Thanks for sharing your talent and beneficial information with us. You are a bright light!

wow this is amazing

Thank you so much for travelling around to these fascinating, mysterious places and sharing your wonderfully beautiful pictures!

If I just saw this randomly on the net with no context, I'd think "what a charming chateau!"

Such an amazing little detail!

wow....the garage in the house I grew up in was the exact same colors as those walls. (until my parents painted it mint green with turquoise stripes at least....ah, the '70s color palette.....)

I bet that was a comfy chair in it's hey-day

Really like the photos and composition Motts. This building certainly has a different "feel" than the others do, but still neat to watch. It sort of instills the feeling of interest/wonderment about the past in me, as opposed to the horror/chills of the other buildings. I'm sure more knowledge would dispel beth feelings, but that is lost to history...

A brief pet peeve of mine though...The amount of radioactive material sitting around the US in places just like this constitutes a serious threat to national security. If simple photographers(no disrespect intended) or vandals can get in then so can terrorists, both foreign and domestic. This reality is the pink elephant of our national security that no one wants to address. It is far easier to create a "dirty bomb" with these leftover materials than to create an actual nuclear device.

Thank you for restricting information about specific locations, both in your posted info, and in the comments. (I know this isn't for the purpose of national security, but more so due to liability or so others don't get hurt. Thanks anyway though. :) )

I had ECT's done, during that time I had a hard time remembering things. And I just got out of Rainbow and they are going to shut that down too, but all in all I now am having a hard time with remember anything. When I look through these albums I can't stop thinking of the struggles that I go through. I tell others that I have met, that every day is a recovery day. Between my voices and not knowing whats going on I have been fighting to keep out of the state hospital. I thank Opacity for opening ppls eyes.

Wow! Its amazing that they just left patient records laying around. So much for HIPPA!!!

I would sat that the tile would play hell with the acoustics. Echos at least....

Wow ... Wanna take a seat at one of these lonely chairs and read the notebook ... Just for interesting why this girl has such a pose on this picture or what's "wrong" with her ...

I just don't understand how people can let beautiful buildings go to waste. Reusing old buildings reduces our carbin footprint . That is what recycling is all about.

i cant belive they left this magnificent building to waste away. its really sad when u think about it.
