Old Apartments, Shippensburg

I took this photo exactly a year ago today. I recently printed this in anticipation of the 'one year anniversary' so to say. I can still remember the day, a wet, dreary late summer day. My girlfriend and I went on another aimless drive in anticipation of discovery and were rewarded with this, just south of Shippensburg. What looked to be an old apartment building. Everything sagging, sad, weeping. A light breeze just slightly tossed the curtain in the window. I find memories become vivid once again a year after they occur. Maybe it's an internal clock in our minds, maybe it's the season, the repetition of mother nature. Either way time moves on, and this is a fine example.
