A haunted look. Thanks. This area is in a doomed place. It is due to be bulldozed and turned into a park this year sometime - soccer fields, baseball diamonds, play structures etc. I'm slowly trying to get what I need from there before it becomes history. It was the place where the a small community of Swedish mill workers built their school, and was attended by many of my neighbors until the braniacs at King County decided to burn it down so it wouldn't burn down. Now they bus us to the crap schools in Issaquah 10 minutes (40 minutes by school bus) away. I'm not sure how long the house pictured has been there. Its falling down, rat infested and will be burnt down as well instead of demolished. They wont' tell us when, but I'll try to be there. Part of me laments the loss of a undisturbed field. But the other half knows that un-nature abhors a field, and if we don't turn it into something for the community, it will be come part of the mega-structure crap that some local developer has littered north of this area. They have made threatening gestures its way for years. So ugly big concrete boxes or a park. Easy pick, even if you lament it. Ironically, my kid is may play for the soccer outfit that are funding the park. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . w a d e h e n i n g e r u s e r e x p e r i e n c e a d o b e s y s t e m s , i n c
