After a general review through a broad google search, a virtual visit via google maps, I stopped by the property featured. 754 S. Conception Street. Mobile, Al. Upon my first site visit I noticed the dilapidated structure sagged beneath the aged roof, her hat was crooked. A crazy unruly tree creeps out from the house, impeding on passerby (if there have been any recently, that is hard to conceive) ominously. Maybe it’s just warning me to stand back? A hand placed out front like an obstinate elderly family remember. After personifying the house it was sealed, this was my muse.
