Today I am not going to drive you crazy with more Halloween crafts. I know that you want to know what is going on with Paranoid man but that’ll have to wait till the Party on Monday.  Instead I’d like to take you to the other side of the waterfront. To the side with many old stone buildings.

You may remember a while ago I visited the town waterfront.  And I showed you many buildings in stone, most of which have been restored.

You almost expect a spooky ghost to come walking out of the door.  I couldn’t resist, it being Halloween and all!

Ghosts aside, it is eerily beautiful.

Black holes for eyes, in this old house.

Is it falling apart or coming together?

And that is our walk thru the other part of the waterfront, the section with the old stone buildings.  As you have just seen, it is “a work in progress”.  These old buildings are in various stages or repair or disrepair, depending on how we see it. But even in this state there is a raw beauty to them and surrounded by the lush green of the trees they seem to blossom.

    1. There are shadows everywhere here in Greece with that strong sun shining on us, we seek them out to get some relief.

  2. …architecture has always been of interest to me and building with stone particularly. Such lovely examples. Thanks Mary for sharing, enjoy your week.

    1. Thank you Tom. When I took that camera with me, it was the first time I actually looked at those buildings. Really looked!
