Caption: Entry #8 On a particularly quiet evening in my good ol' hometown, I wanted to go to the infamous Davis Hospital to take some pictures and have my sister take pictures of me. To my surprise, about a week later the very spot I was in was demolished in the city's demolition process.

Caption: Entry #9 I passed this house maybe 1,000,000 times in my life? Roughly? I finally ventured inside and got interesting pictures only to come back to the location a couple days later to see it has been completely demolished. My grandparents and dad knew the owner, everyone called it Grandma Hoover's house.

Caption: Entry #10 Right down the road from Grandma Hoover's house was the Church's home. Startled me a couple times when I heard walking in the area, saw new boots on the ground and gunshots? Later found out there's a range nearby. But, I went by there today, a couple weeks after I visited, and yup not to my surprise, also demolished...

Caption: Even though the building is gone, I'm so thankful for finding this location while I had the time and finding one of my favorite shots I've taken to date.
Caption: Entry #11 I've discussed my bell farm barn multiple times and it still breaks my heart that "my curse" almost demolished this beautiful structure.
Picture
Caption: Entry #12 I visited this location briefly with my friend Michaela and it was just an absolutely beautiful house. It was falling apart so we didn't go too far inside. I wanted to take head shots here the next day to only find trucks heading back to the house. Haven't returned to the location to see what it looks like now, but I'm almost scared to.

Caption: Fingers crossed this doesn't last long. Just continues to show you how temporary everything is.
