One final image from the welding shop. One of the things that I like about exploring abandoned places is that you never know what you're going to find. :)

Song of the day: "Dead Man's Will" by Iron and Wine

Poem of the day:
"But if they'd give us toys and twice the stuff most
parents splurge on the average kid, orphans, I submit, need more than enough;
in fact, stacks wrapped with our names nearly hid
the tree: these sparkling allotments yearly
guaranteed a lack of--what?--family?--

I knew exactly what it was I missed as we were lined up number rank and file:
to share my pals' tearing open their piles
meant sealing the self, the child that wanted
to scream at all You stole those gifts from me;
whose birthday is worth such words? The wish-lists
they'd made us write out in May lay granted
against starred branches. I said I'm sorry."
- Bill Knott, "Christmas At The Orphanage"
