Keep up the good fight! And share your stories now...before it's too late. . Shared from @viclyn . I love old houses like this one. It’s falling in on itself, it’s sagging, old, and no doubt won’t be standing much longer. But the flag still waves and is not tattered. There are flowers in the window box. They might be plastic, but so what! The indomitable spirit still shines here. The memories are soaked into the walls and floor. I hear laughter, and know there were also some tears. But she’s still here. Still fighting. Still hanging on. 😘 . . #makanda #makandaboardwalk #vulturefest #illinoisisastateofmine #garden #oldhouse #architecture #beautiful #spirit #brickstory #americanflag #travelamerica #instastories #instahouses #oldhousecharm #oldbuildings #love #photooftheday #photography #wandermakanda #illinoisisaststeofmine .
