Abandoned places – Bakersfield Wanderings, July 07 (part 5a)

The Special House
Imagine if you could, step back in time several decades. Imagine if what you would find in the common, day to day articles of life. The last place that Tracy senzaf1ne showed us on our Bakersfield trip was just such a place. With the exception of furniture (something carried off), every room in this modest 4 room 1910 era farm house was filled with objects from the 1960’s and 70’s. Literally in some places the floor had nearly 18 inches of papers, boxes, clothes, canned goods, boxed foods, and more. It was as if the previous resident dumped out all their furniture and vanished.

Let look around the outside first and then a brief glance inside

Yes, that’s poured old style glass in the door window




Glancing in the window to the kitchen




This was in a vintage ‘band-aid’ can beneath the phone box outside.





Shall we look inside?
