I pass this house about once or twice a day. On this particular day it was overcast, and with no deep shadows I could see more detail which I might miss in bright sunlight. So I parked the car and walked over to shoot it. I think I was attracted to it because it was kind of overgrown. You know me and my love of ruins and abandoned places. That is not the case here - this is a beautiful Victorian home. The funny thing is, I think that a past owner meant to make some fancy entrance pillars, and put in the concrete blocks to create pillars, but they should have been coated with textured concrete for a more finished look.

I like the gate with the added flower pots, but everything is so overgrown, it looks abandoned.

Love this photo...it looks like something out of a Tennessee Williams story! Is Blanche DuBois lurking behind that mysterious gate??!! Thanks for igniting our imaginations!! Babs
Thanks to both of you for your comments. Sometimes I wonder if what I think I see is really there - and you both sensed something that I felt when I saw this gate. Thanks!
I thought that it looks abandoned, also. Sad for such a beautiful gate. betsey
