One of the small towns I passed through is now a ghost town, destroyed by the Thistle Dam break and mudslide of 1983. This house sits near the highway, still half-submerged in a scummy pond. If ever you needed an image of a "haunted house," this one is sad enough to fill that requirement.
Ignore the reality and create the backstory, my writer friends. :)
This is such a cool house. I love when you end up finding something you weren't really looking for. Utah is full of hidden surprises. I went up to Sundance a few weeks ago, and I felt the inspiration to write overflow throughout me. Maybe it's because Robert Redford is such a story teller. Beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteYes, Redford is a very talented man. I agree.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by, Jess. :)
