It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    I'm a big fan of abandoned buildings myself, Zanotti, and enjoyed checking these out... my faves are your stately/humble entry and the second one - the latter I think due to the colours and composition.

    I must ask though - WHAT is in that meal?

    Traditional Southern Lunch - chicked fried steak, rice and gravy, collard greens, cornbread, and sweet tea.

    You dont see this much out of the South, but it is pretty typical there. I was in South Carolina. I went to college in Atlanta (before it was such a cosmopolitan city) and that was how we ate then, too. I kind of miss it.

    Its probably not very good for you, but it is good!

    I am originally from SC so I am wondering where you took these pics? Hey...I recognized that meal immediately. Miss the collard greens out here in Denver although I recently found a BBQ place that serves them and they are great.

    Oh and forgot to mention that I like the pics. :D

    Great shots...I'm just the opposite..I grew up in Atlanta and went to college in SC. (moved back to Atlanta after school) I married one of those sweet Carolina girls and she cooks meals like that all the time. I really like to old barns and buidlings. My father-in-law just revitalized his (actually his fathers old barn) not much to shoot anymore.

    Zanotti,

    I went to school at Presbyterian College in Clinton, SC...about 12 miles from Laurens. I always thought of Greenwood as on of the big towns in the area...compared to Laurens, Clinton, Newberry, etc. Your barns remind me VERY much of the barn at ny father-in-laws barn in Belton, SC
