Far Away Places

Probably could have had a career as an artist but ended up here

Looks like Jimmy was rather fond of 1980.

Wow. Now that is fascinating. I wonder where the person who drew this is now. He could have a really good career as an arrist!

Wow. And he could spell too.

Not sure what it is supposed to mean, but the stenciling is nicely done.

LOL BKW Ontario...I noticed that too...the lack of spelling errors. :)

Someone took a lot of time to draw / write this here.

Very interesting! Places this person wants to go or, places that they have been? Hope it wasnt the other facilities they had been in. Nice writing tho.

Very neatly done

I like 1980 as well... It was the year i was born!

Canada I feel REALLY old right now!

Me too Joe...

Yes, people...I will be 40 in a few weeks. :(

Mama, happy birthday! I'll be 38 in May....and I can't even deal with that. BUT, enjoy anyway!

Eldokid, you are so right! What a great artist, such a shame.

Thank you Kathy! :) You youngster you lol!

I just can't get over the artistic nature of this photo! Firstly, Mr. Motts does a TERRIFIC job capturing the essence of a place, and secondly, who would think to find beauty in a place that is anything BUT beautiful?

Makes you think doesn't it?

Happy Birthday Mama.
I'm 48 and I don't feel old at all. :)

Mama, thanks for your funny comments, and have a happy birthday (in a few weeks).

BKW Ontario

Mama, you are only as old as you feel! My parents are older than all my friends' parents (I like to think they started the older parent thing, LOL). Anyway, they act so young, even today! I'm babbling...anyway, 40 isn't bad at all (neither is 48 Larry D!). :)

Kathy W.

*Blush* Aw you guys done made me blush now.:D

Thanks so much! A nice Happy Birthday from the Motts Man himself would send me over the moon! :)

I love this site!

@Kathy W: I agree Kathy. 48 is not old. But I'm 54. *groan* (I told some kids to get off my lawn today)

Oh sorry Larry D! I mixed you and A D Nilsen up. That would be the other evening when I was having some wine and posting. I need to be careful! Ooops! Hell, 54 isn't bad either. And, um, I had to stop myself from chasing some kids off my lawn (frozen tundra really, lol) a few weeks ago. ;)

HB mamaPA! You're still a young pup. Let me know when you tape that sequel Larry, I'll fit right in! As far as Michaelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel here, I'll guess these were the joints where the guy did time, Lucie. *Richard Pryor struts into prison* "Dats right! We bad, we bad!"

Happy birthday mama! Ah, the big 4 - 0. Your forties will be your best decade ever. You're old enough to know what you want & young enough to get it. And that's a cool place to be in life. Uncle Larry is always lurking somewhere in these galleries. I spot something new every time I revisit one & I love reading your comments. ==8-)

Jon go away troll. There are people on here who have been commenting together what seems like forever, so join our happy group or STAY OUT OF OUR BUSINESS. I can't stop you from commenting on the photos or anything else, but I would appreciate it if you kept your snide remarks to yourself. Thank you and have a great day.

And THANK YOU Uncle Larry! :D

I sure wish I could print all fancy like this...I keep coming back to this because ... I dunno. Something about it...just catches my eye and I can't put my finger on it.

I love "Cuba"

HUH...I didn't even notice that there MIKEYINTHEOC...good eye!

Not trolling.... you obviously don't know what that is.

Hm, I would prefer the 70s rather than 1980. Anyway, makes me feel better though I always thought I would start getting old soon, turning 20 this year.
