It was pretty much a ghost town, houses left over from the logging boom. We always went traipsing far into the woods to find things left many years before.. it was so beautiful. Empty houses in this town were the norm and I loved looking inside to see what was left. Thanks for these fascinating photos.

I lived in one, or part of one in my childhood.It was a many roomed mansion and there were rooms upstairs with rotting floors so you had to be careful where you walked. But as a child of 4-8, it was a many splendored thing to me! I have a board on Pinterest titled "Tattered Grandeur" I pinned some of your pics. Hope they get you exposure. You are very talented. As for that short film, all you had to do was give it Vicks, that would have stopped that "coffin" I share your interest(fasination) with abandoned houses.

Hope it's okay to link to your pics, etc.--I've posted them on my FB page and shared them with others on their FB pages as well.

I was searching for images of poor farms, that sort of stuff fascinates me, orphanages, old sanatoriums, old buildings in general, so I was pleased to find you had a section of photos titled "poor farm". I kept on looking, I didn't stop till I had gone through everything. Imagine my surprise to find the section titled "Copper Country" and to see the orphanage in Marquette photograph, the building is only a few blocks from my house. Your pictures capture the souls of the houses and buildings, the history, echoes of the people who once lived in them. Thank you. Your photos are amazing.
