let’s get ready to rumble

RUMBLE

This poor building looks like it has been rumbled, tumbled, rumpled and jumbled.

No idea what was going on here, but I’ll bet someone saved all that brick.

You know what bugs me? When I see a building like this and cannot for the life of me remember what it was. Does that happen to you? I guess our brain can only hold so much pertinent information.

And there is a door for Dan today!

    Now that’s a sad sight Lois. I don’t think that building could be more rumpled and crumpled or tumbled. I hope that building had a good life because it sure isn’t having a good demise! So sad that it couldn’t have been given a new life through refurbishing.

  2. You’re right, Lois! How fast we forget faces, places, and things.

    Happen here all the time. We drive by where a new building is going up and are like, what was there before?

  4. Aw, poor building. 😦 “If walls could talk”…we could learn a lot.

    Now I’m off to the rest of my busy day…but I’ll be humble and try not to mumble or stumble or fumble. HA! 😉 😀 (“-umble” words are fun! 😛 )

  5. Much of the information in my brain is impertinent.

    It’s so sad to see a building in this sad condition, Lois (but it’s great to see you at Thursday Doors). Hard to say what it might have been.

    I always do that; I notice a new building and then try to remember what was there last year!

    I hope the bricks are re-used for more than new foundations. My kitchen extension has a feature wall of reclaimed bricks that are over 100 years old.

      That is wonderful, Sue–over 100 years old! So lovely. That brick can most certainly be re-used. With the cost of everything lately, that would be the wisest thing to do. To say nothing of the character it would give to a new building.

    I am incredibly accomplished at not noticing the obvious. I wouldn’t notice the new, let alone wonder what was the old.

    In time nature reclaims all the things we stack on top of other things. If no one goes back there to start stacking again, eventually nature will finish it’s job.
