Next few are from another day. I stopped by one evening to talk to the head of security about some new ownership related stuff... and what kind of photographer would I be if I went to a Kirkbride without my camera? On this day, it'd rained all day and was quite hazy.

And now a more grim task... the dreaded Danvers-type map. I really, really hope I won't have to start shading pieces that dreaded shade of red... but reality is, I'll probably have to.
Good luck, my lady.
