property destruction = ?

stumbled upon this abandoned house/garage on a little side street near my office. it wasn't just a dump, though- it had a message.
it communicated something.
it had a story- and, i wanted to know it.

at first i thought it said "property destruction = death" -but, now i'm not so sure what it says.
i felt a heaviness and weight of the message. it was part of the story.

still wonder.

our side of the mountains

My new favorite book: My Side of the Mountain
I think if I could live in the woods and live well....I would. I love being outside. I love the woods. I love nature. It astounds me every time.
So, New Year's weekend in the Smokies? -completely wonderful. perfection.

Here is a glimpse of the beauty, and the wonders that struck me on our side of the mountains:

wide open spaces
texture
color
an indescribable airy feel
streams
reflections
beauty
discovery
