That bowl looks mysteriously out of place, almost brand new! Was there anything in it??
Are those animal paw prints on the chair?
I think I see a little raccoon paw print on the back of the chair.
The raccoon wanted his soup, thank-you-very-much!

That bowl does look oddly bright and new against the falling-apart chair and the bricks and the general dust and decay around it. Hmm.
very strange that a bowl could be in such a perfect place and in such great shape...
i know, right? welcome to the world of plastics
In the corner eating his porridge. Must have went for a walk while it cooled.
Me thinks that bowl is glued to that board or that critter would have knocked it off....What do you think?
This is called a "geri" chair. Used for little old ladies it helped them stay upright while sitting in the chair. The tray could be fastened at various points to support the mid section of a patient. In the new era of no mechanical restraints this chair was considered confining and they were no longer allowed to be used. Not sure that was a good move. At least the tray kept patients from falling forward, but if they were small they could slide out under the tray and were possibly in danger of choking themselves.
Someone finished their bowl of soup and dropped their napkin on the floor. What an interesting place to have lunch...
that paw print is old,the chair is recovered in dust
Is there someone coming in feeding the raccoon?
