Sorry to post a location twice, but here is my full set from my local asylum in VA. More on my Flickr

This is about a ten minute walk from my place, doesn't get much more local than that. Visited with ViceR and The Crowing, later joined by AppleSnail and Aurelie, all from UER
On with the pics.
1)
The original 1828 building

3)
No color adjustment, I promise

Work lights ftw! This is inside the original 1828 admin building
10)
11)
Cheesy portrait

This was an asylum of fantastic staircases
15)
The cupola on top
16)
Nice surprise
17)
'Nuff said
18)
Lovely
19)
20)
21)
The entire campus had a very park-like atmosphere
22)
Hundreds and hundreds (maybe over a thousand?) unmarked graves without even numbers. The painted numbers had worn off long ago
23)
One of two dead deer we found, along with a dead bird and bat found as well!
