What a treat! This week we were able to tour an old jail owned by our friends in Indiana.
The time and paint of a jail that once was is literally peeling off the walls, revealling the layers upon layers of man power applied to the space.
I wonder if the inmates did the painting?
The medical ward had white tiles and reminded me of a "white room" for people losing their mind.... I wonder how many minds were lost here.....
There was something stunningly beautiful about a jail in decay.... A cage for humans, left to rot. So grateful it's no longer "in use".
It was a great way for my children to learn about what happens in jail without having to witness actual human suffering.
Interestingly enough, I have a Dear friend held as a political prisoner in this very town. www.freeschaeffercox.com
What an eerie beauty. The colors and the cracked paint look very cool, but it is sad to reflect on how lives were changed in places like this.

I would like to share this on my Facebook Page "The Online Museum of Human Atrocities", but I'm in FB Jail for about 27 more days. :(
I'll see what I can do.
