the sign on the rusty gate said "no trespassing" so i climbed over it. the sign on the tree said "keep out" which i did. this time. only because there wasn't a sign saying "there are mosquitos the size of lap dogs surrounding this property and they will take you down"
~
that i figured out all on my own
~
so
guess where i'm going in a few weeks
once i've confirmed that the lap dog sized mosquitos have been muzzled
and
put away for the year
~
gosh how i love to have something to look forward to

You sassy, daring, mischievous lady! I love it! Take me with you! Is this property outside of Evansville? If not, there's one very similar there.
What fun!
there are two places on the way to where I often drive..
one is charred ruins of a fire, the other is an abandoned barn.
every time I go by , I think of you, think , okay, I'm going in...
:)
I'll dedicate the post to you when I do . I will.
I love that building and completely understand your breaking the rules to check it out further.
Your blog's title is one of my favorite sayings. I am a fan of all of us being ourselves fully and in my later years--69 at the moment--I find that it becomes even more vital to dive deep and fly out into who I am with zest, gusto, appreciation, joy, ecstasy, etc.
You really made me smile reading this.
Always love your words and photographs.

Oh, oh, oh - take me! I love old buildings and this one seems enticing. I always love imagining what they once were and what they could be with lots of money poured into them. This is a beauty and I can't wait till you visit again. There is a place in Kansas I always wanted to explore. Each time I have seen it, more has fallen to the ground now. It is so sad to see these beauties dissolve into the ground.
OOOOH, I can't wait!!
Oh some good old fashioned exploring - nothing better. Know I can be cheered up coming to visit your site... thanks for your gift with words and camera.
what a great thing to look forward to ...
Oh your braver than me, the signs would keep me away....well maybe not. love it...you go girl can't wait to see what you find and the beautiful photoa.
Great looking building. I would have done exactly what you did. I have found the neatest structures and hideouts just exploring.
And now I have something to look forward to, too.
There seems to be something so tempting about those 'no trespassing' signs isn't there? You just know there's going to be something good there! What a beautiful building...I'm in!
in a few weeks...
where mosquitoes are...
You must be travelling South. WHERE?!!!
What a beautiful building!!!

ooooh, is my imagination ever running wild. This house has a million memories locked inside, Beth. What a find! What a treat to look forward to! I can't wait...
It's an absolute beauty. I wonder why it's abandoned? Someone could give it so much love. . .
Just imagine the stories this lovely old building could tell..
fantastic find..
That would be soooooooo cooooool!
Ill meet ya around 5 O clock?! eh~ ;)

oh yes, no trespassing means that you have to climb over the gate, lol
You find the most interesting structures in your area. And yes, that's definitely something to look forward to. Waiting for those inside shots.
What a wonderful discovery...wish I could accompany you on your trespassing:)
When it comes to getting the images I want - I pay no attention to the rules or what the signs say. Looks like a wonderful old building!
What an awesome house!!! I would love to go explore that one...and to find out the history of it...why no one is living there, loving it now...
I'll bring along some geranium and citronella, a picnic basket and bottle of wine...we will have a feast, NOT the Texas sized mosquitoes!
Oh my. This house is just begging me to buy it and lavish loving attention on it. I could live there - happily forever after.
Fun.. I hope you'll bring a camera.. with video capabilities! :)
I'm intrigued. Love that building.
Trying to guess where you are going but it doesn't matter . . . because eventually I will get to see it through your wonderful photographs.
another reason to love the first frost. :)
Beth, Pictures like this give my heart a thrill.I look forward to more photo's of this beauty...just be careful when you go snooping around...and if you do get arrested for it...I am sure we will all pitch in to help bail ya out. :)
naughty..... a woman after my own heart.
lovely lovely blog.
You do this all the time...I admire your bravery my friend.
I am inspired by the rebel in you.
:)
Wow this house is just amazing. Daring and brave = Totally awesome!
ooooh. that will be fun to return.
Take me with you :)
Around here, we have old dump sites from homesteads. My favorite thing to do is find an old cabin, great dumpsite, and just spend a day digging for old time treasure.
Watch the ground and the corners, you could find some fascinating things!
