Description I discovered this house about 45 minutes from my home-town. It was in shambles. It's quite possibly the saddest place I have ever been in my life. I went back months after I had taken this photo, & the house was gone.

It looks like the portable house of Buster Keaton in "one week"

rockin' the features!

I love this shot. The angles are Escher-like and I wasn't convinced it was a photograph until I pulled it up.

I'm glad I found it when I did. I still think about it from time to time. It's hard not to wonder about it. Who lived there, what happened..
