nice, man
you finish yer photoez real good
i dig the cripz lite
it captures the entire experience
the outside weather
a balmy yet cripz day
blue sky
sunny late afternoon
the architecture of the house
the cast shadowz a nice angle,
parallel light and shadow
old wood mansion
they don make em like that anymore
it will be a good place to hole up when that
hurricane blowz up chesapeake bay,
end the delusion of time
a sweet moment
the eternal present
life is nowwwwwww
mercy.

Ice house at Hockley from the seventeen hundreds, didn't know they used ice back then.

It is three stories high, one story above the mound, one in the mound and one in the ground. It's a buried silo sort of speak. They use to put in a layer of ice covered by corn husks and saw dust. They would repeat the layering until the ice would reach the top or door section where they would then store food.
