For Rubbish Tuesday

I just recently discovered a new meme...Rubbish Tuesday over at Rubbish by Roan.  So this is my offering.  We came across it in 2012 in Parke County, or at least I am pretty sure we were still in Parke County in Indiana.

There was an RV parked out behind...and these two came to greet me.   Yes, they were friendly...so far I have never had a close encounter other than having a few dogs that I could hardly get away from.

    This is very sad. I bet at one time it was a big beautiful, and prestigious home. I will go and pay her a visit!

    So cool to find someone else who likes to photograph old run down buildings! The snow scene on your banner is WONDERFUL.

    This is one huge house. I can almost see it in its heyday, bright white with cheerful curtains adorning the windows and children running and playing in the yard. Great find! Thanks for linking up!

    I bet that house was really grand in its day! How sad that it's not occupied. Great find for Rubbish Tuesday.

    Glad to see you joining in for this one. :D

    That house, no doubt, was beautiful in its day.

    There's a run-down house we pass occasionally in Danville that looks like the Herman Munster house. I've tried to photograph it but there are usually people around and I haven't been able to get a good shot of it yet.

    Oh the stories that must exist within those walls. One a wonderful find. My, I could have brought back oodles of material for Rubbish Tuesday had I known about it beforehand. I'll keep that meme in mind.

    Love the photos!! What a beautiful house that must have been. Now it would make the perfect set for a haunted house movie.

    Oh my goodness! What a shame this old house has been left to fall apart. Sore makes a great photo op, though!

    It must've been glorious in its day. Reminds me of a house my husband and I used to walk by, when we were first married.

    The old place has lots of character even in its advanced decay. Fine shots.

    Wow! What a great old heap! It is a true shame that it is in such a run down condition. Glad the dogs were friendly!

    Wow what an awesome old home. I bet it was grand in it's day. If there was an RV and dogs around perhaps they are planning to restore the home. Wouldn't that be grand.
