Overgrown Room

Overgrown Room

You can just make out a wall back there, the roof has long been gone since it was burned down.

Very nice, so serene and peaceful.

This reminds me of another location. Anyone seen the abandoned New Haven Motel on Route 12 in Wisconsin between Fort Atkinson and Whitewater? This looks like one of the abandoned "cabin" rooms. I just found out my uncle's neighbors know a lot about that place, including that some famous people stayed there, so I will find out a lot more soon. If you've heard of it, email me at jdfan63@hotmail.com

Anyways, this greenhouse is a really awesome find - I'd love to come across something like that while triapsing through the woods!

I love it. Very natural, left behind feeling which makes the image blossom with the different types of greens.

amazing how human can tear down a forest to make a home and how a forest can devour a home

You know, it takes a lot longer for Nature to reclaim what Man takes than it does for Man to take it in the first place... but Nature is a lot more persistent. I can picture almost any place being reclaimed like this.

That sounds really cool. Please write some more about the abandoned New haven Motel.

Thank you.

Soo green- like my 55 gal fish tank before I added salt.

Yes, I do believe this picture is of one of the cabins at the Haven Motel (originally "Lein's Cabins,) which was built by my parents, starting in 1929. I made a scapbook full of pictures & stories which is at the Hoard Museum in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin. You can contact me for more information if you like,at snikrepbb@peoplepc.com

This is cool! I remember an old vegetable cellar in the woods near my house when I was a kid. It was a cement structure, half-way into the ground with a flat-top. It was where they kept the vegetables cool during the summer in the old days.

One more thing-I remember my dad calling it a "root cellar".
