Shocked at the complete deterioration of a once vibrant city (think Chernobyl). I met some wonderful residence today, coping with what is going on around them. Hoping for the best. And I am hoping for the best for them, too.
Emotionally, I don't know if I can write about it tonight.
We are near Purdue University, located in West Lafayette, Indiana. Wind turbines, rows and rows of them!
Tired and hot. I have some notes to write before I hit the sack.

Been following your posts... what is this trip all about????
it is really sad, no?
LindaSonia ... traveling with a photog friend, helping her drive and stuff while she shoots some stuff around the US... i think we are out 10 more days
Thanks for the info... sounds like fun.
Isn't urban decay really everywhere?
yes, the natural greying of a building is one thing ... but Gary, has its' own category.
Sorry, LindaSonia, I had to go get coffee ... I guess it is not so much urban decay as seeing a town 3/4 shut down ... every other house either burned or fallen in. Every main building shut or falling in.
For an in-depth look at the Gary, IN that was & is, see the comprehensive offerings at http://GDYNets.WebNG.com/gary.htm, put together by a former Gary resident.
