Moments #21: Exploring The Back Yard Of An Abandoned House


I simply can’t resist the opportunity to explore an abandoned house.  Check out this backyard!

A few weeks after I took these pictures, the city sent down a landscaping crew who mowed the grass and tossed out all of the tables and the chairs that had been left in the backyard.  It made me sad watching them do it.  I don’t know who once lived in that house or why they left their gate open but I’ve always wondered if they ever came back looking for their plastic chairs.  Watching it all get tossed in a dumpster felt like the end of an era.
