Well the paint was all cracked
It was peeled off of the wood
Papers were stacked on the porch
Where I stood
And the weeds had grown up
Just as high as the door
There were birds in the chimney
And an old chest of drawers
-Tom Waits

Went to the Blues & BBQ Fest last night and heard some pretty great bands, had some good food (albeit less than we had wanted since I didn't get enough $$ out of the ATM for anything more than roasted corn and french fries... but they were delicious). I guess they're doing some sort of construction on this old building.

I hope they keep the exterior close to what it is and not paint over it.
