A Double Blah Day . . .

This was as about as a dark, cloudy, blah day as they get.  A good example of a double blah day!!  I'm sure the weather had a lot to do with my state of extreme boredom.  Could've been a good day to read magazines at the local library, but it isn't open on Sunday afternoons.  I couldn't even decide what to eat for lunch or to forget about eatin anything till I could think of something to eat.  Around 1:30, I decided to go to Arby's for a salad.  Why I picked Arby's, I don't know.  I really don't care for their salads that much.  Afterwards I must have sat in my truck a good five minutes or so, wonderin what to do next.  Should I go home and wonder what to do next or should I go somewhere.  I sort of decided to go somewhere, but I couldn't come up with anywhere that was better than sittin in Arby's parkin lot.  After ponderin about goin north, east, then west, I decided on goin south.  I got as far as Sherwood and decided that this was stupid.  So I went east a couple miles and turned north toward home.  

steps

I was on The Bend Rd when I noticed these abandoned steps on Buckskin Rd.  I turned around and went back for a closer inspection.  Two sets of steps really close to the roadway.  Remains of a church building?? An old store??  An old inn?? There are quite a few 'ghost towns' around in the area.  I wonder if this was one of them.  I'll hafta go to the library tomorrow and check out that book on NW Ohio ghost towns.  Read it several years ago . . . I thought is was very interesting.  And I really did brighten and tone down the contrast in this pic.  It really was a very dark and dreary day.
