Early weekend outing
Today, I went out to River Valley Market, got no cake 🤬, but I did get waffles and pizza and such, and drove mom's budget $40 outta whack, whoops... (that's what teenagers do, sorry...) Other than that, I really did nothing except blogging, YouTubing, and whatever other -ing you can think about. It's been a, well, good day, I guess?
We're here! (Look closely at the sign, they are back to normal hours from 8am-10pm, formerly 8am-9pm in the late summer)
The moment you've all been waiting for, the gallery of today!
Thanks, AdCouncil, maybe I should learn something new today...
Half-frozen river, absolutely beautiful...
Getting off the highway next to the airport, kind of like that beach that planes land over that tourists go to (maybe you should go, but people have gotten killed on that beach, so be careful if you do decide to go...) (in 2021, of course)
Looks like its been abandoned for 5+ years, but in reality, only for about 8 months; formerly home to a seafood restaurant since 1985, a 2020 casualty, caused by retirement and then COVID, ending the business early... its last day was Saturday, April 11, 2020, about 1 month into the COVID-19 pandemic.
New car dealership...
Formerly home to two abandoned houses that were very recently demolished.
Formerly a MattressFirm (formerly Sleepy's, I prefer the old name), closed in late 2018/early 2019, now abandoned...
Closer look.
Yes, it has changed, not just the way you shop at your co-op, but EVERYTHING!
Good news that the COVID-19 vaccine is here, but people are getting allergic reactions from the Pfizer vaccine, so maybe you should wait...
A result of the 9:30pm curfew.
Old nursing home close to River Valley, closed in 2011, abandoned for 9 years. Surprisingly, for a 9 year abandonment (an average building would be well into decay within 9 years of no usage or fixing, most begin severe decay at or before 5 years of abandonment; yes, some buildings abandoned around 2015 are already uninhabitable, isn't it crazy how time flies...), the building doesn't look too bad, at least not yet...
Back side, now graffitized... (not visible in picture)
