Overgrown, Wellington, Utah, 2006

Nature knocks. And nobody answers. That’s the story here. The door is sealed shut, seemingly in battle with an advancing tree. Its steps are gone. Old equipment, which will never run again, gathers weeds on the ground. The siding is peeling away. A window is about to be consumed by a vine. Nature’s colors trump those of man. The end is nigh.

How did you know, Ai Li? Actually house is really two houses. In the back, the old house rots away. On the other side of this building, there is another house, one that seems very much alive. The land they stand on is probably a single lot, owned by the same people. So yes, it may not be too late, after all.

There's still a chance, Phil. The door remains to be seen and within reach. Hopefully someone would soon return and revive the house. It's not too late, not yet.
