A little dereliction addiction........

~It's all about the thrill of the hunt and cruisin' backroads searching for rusty gold. Rummaging for cool pieces of antiquity is only part of the adventure. Next comes the challenge of re-purposing into new creations with updated functionality. Favorite finds are architectural iron, wood salvage, industrial, lighting fixtures, automobilia, farm salvage, and old hardware. But the real story, which always transcends the pickin', is about the interesting people and the unique places discovered along the way!~

Wow..how we love the same things! Have you ever been through Eufaula?
Wow, that old warehouse is so cool! I'd love to go exploring and see what's inside!
Great pictures. I love them all. I think architecture is better aged.
Girl, you sure know how to torture...first the old buildings, then the beach, I soooo wish I could've gone with.
My mom called yesterday and asked when I was coming down...not in the cards at this time, with our busy season of soap-making and antiquing, but I'll get itchy travelin' fingers in the fall...actually I get them ALL THE TIME!!! Some day!
Have a good ol sniff of salty air for me too! have fun!
I love derelict ornate buildings. I found the loveliest old green Methodist Church on the DelMarVa Peninsula one time. I need to go back there--13 hours driving at least. They all put me in the mind of fixing them up and making them live again. I love that warehouse. It looks like it is strung with lights-definitely a movie set! Have fun!
