If You See Something (IRL), Post Something! (Part 2)

Seen along Boise’s scenic greenway, where small homes are being bought up, demolished, and replaced by luxury condos.

I’ve been going through my “nature” folder on my phone gallery instead of doomscrolling when stressed at work. Came across this pic. Not sure if this is anything, but the composition of this one hit me. I think my photography style boils down to: “would this be a good screen of a classic Sierra adventure game…”

That would have been perfect, but sadly, no. Everything was so overpriced that we didn’t get anything at all. I guess Lucille wasn’t that far off, after all!

Maybe I just haven’t been on a plane in a while but the clouds on my late afternoon flight from Maine to NYC in June were chef’s kiss. I guess it’s the least the storm could offer after turning what should’ve been a 45 minute flight into a 6 hour day at the airport…

Opened my eyes to a whole thing I didn’t know was happening, basically, in my back yard when I was a kid. The Elan school.
I’ve since moved back to the area, and today took one of the creepiest ‘afternoon outings’ of my life to go check out the site and see what it looks like now.
Here’s the building the author mainly was kept in

But it’s like the whole place was just abandoned in a rush. The “school” was closed down in, I think, 2011, but look at the inside and all the stuff they left behind:

It was very creepy. The “kitchen” building still had all kinds of neglected commercial kitchen equipment in it. Not just pans and racks, whole ovens and refrigerators.
The place has about 6 buildings, and all of them have busted windows and doors, and a bunch of valuable stuff still inside.
So weird to visit a place like that on a beautiful summer day. Got the chills.

Definitely giving me a Three Pines vibe.

Wow, that building really does look like the one in that comic (which is really gripping so far) about Elan.

What a hell hole! :flushed:

Also makes me wonder how many people that place totally fucked up for the rest of their lives. :disappointed:
