Orbits of a deluded mind

While I’m still composing my thoughts after the storms of last week, I thought I might offer this gem.

Last spring when I was out in Colorado Springs, I did a bit more than work and take nature photos. While driving around the countryside there, I happened upon an empty and well secured ranch. From what I could determine, it was broken in three rentals based on the mail boxes on the main road. With the newest (junk) mail over a year old, I felt the place was a safe bet to explore.





Directly behind this ranch was an incredible view of Pikes Peak.

From the looks of it, the owner started renovations and just gave up

I don’t think they meant to make the front porch into the ‘reading room’ though..


..but they left reading material for it..


This is the only interior shot I could get inside the main house (through a window)..
