  5. You have quite a collection of abandoned buildings, Aletta. The one with the sand piled up to the tops of the doors is amazing to see. Some of the buildings look rather new. What a blow – literally and figuratively – to have the sand take over your house!

      1. I can imagine. Thanks for sharing. It reminds me of a ghost town I visited in California, but it is a lot newer. Sometimes we think we are managing nature better than people did in the past, but pictures like yours prove us wrong. Nature has us beat hands down, and when we try to build where Nature says, “Don’t build there,” we do so at our loss. 🙂
