Yesterday I had the great privilege of exploring and going on an adventure with my dear friend Margaret. With squinty eyes, we woke up at five in the morning to allow adequate time to get ready, grab coffee, drive to our destination, and watch the sunrise. Our destination- Turnpike Distribution Center (off of 30). This center is a wonderful mix of crushed cars and their rusted parts smashed into little boxes along with big bold machinery and falling dirt. It is a beauty! seriously. Think Doctor T.J. Eckelburg's Valley of Ashes from The Great Gatsby or the junk lot from The Brave Little Toaster (I know you know what I am talking about). Sadly, there were workers at that time in the morning and a barbed wire fence. They would not let us in because it was "dangerous"- PAH!!! We looked onto the beautiful scene and vowed that we would be standing in Turnpike Distribution Center within the next two weeks. So, that is our plan. For now, here are some pictures.
