No trespassing

saw this sign alongside an unpaved road in the everglades. unfortunately the road turned out to be closed after 2 miles... so we had to turn back, which gave us at least the opportunity to photograph it! apparently yhe "everglades conservation and sportmans club est 1950" will shoot you on sight when trespassing... great... so, we just took the pic and drove on...
i uploaded some more pics on flickr (here), still not done however! its frustrating how much i already forgot. where was it exactly? what did we do? etc... ? so in order not to forget flickr is actually quite useful.. if i do it fast enough... there are also some more pics of the deserted cars along the road. while many abandoned places had a sign "no trespassing" this one did not. so all the while i felt a little uneasy, taking pictures there, and i imagined some guy jumping out of the bushes with a gun. luckily, no such thing happened.... would have loved to take a peek inside such a deserted place, but i didnt dare! i found a website where people post pictures of abandoned places... and sometimes they do go inside. especially this one i liked, its beautiful and sad at the same time...
ooh, its suddenly cold in boston!! right now its -10 C (15 F).... but still no sign of snow....

That is a sad link indeed. How is it possible even to leave the toys behind. It is such a beautiful house with the stairs and the view. It almost looks like people had to run off for a kind of nature disaster.

I like this warning! It's for me not very useful in Holland. No gun at hand!
