Shorpy is so great. It seems I have some sort of affinity towards hotels as this old building strikes me as something to model. Termite Hotel! http://www.shorpy.com/node/7795
That last photo. I mean .. check it out. Stone building .. there is a .. thing .. with a rusty box on top .. a old rotting ladder from a stone add-on building up to the rusty box thing .. then a tank next to it .. plumbing of some kind .. everything is on a cement platform .. I don't have any idea what it is .. but .. it's GREAT!
I came across this old abandoned farm house just South of Idaho Falls, ID, this past weekend. I thought if somebody needed a project with some interesting roof angles this would fit the bill.
I couldn't get a shot of one of the rear corners of the place due to overgrowth.

Ray: This house was occupied until about four years ago. When it was abandoned there was an old barn behind it that was really delapidated. Everytime I went to see my daughter I thought I should go get some photos of the barn. When I went over to take the photos this past weekend lo and behold the barn was gone . Stupid of me to delay. At least I did get the house though. Moral of the story; get the photos when you first see the structure because these old buildings are not going to last.
