I Am Enthralled With Ancient Dwellings Stories of Experiences

I hadn't a dream like this before. The kind of dream where you can experience what feels like a lifetime in a matter of moments.This was eye opening. I woke in damp meadow of grasses and flowers, left cold. In a fog that calm me in...

Perhaps it's the passage of time that fascinates me, or the thought of myself as a single tiny thread within an infinite tapestry. History interests me but not as an avid pursuit and it isn't a quest for knowledge that motivates me, it...

I took a trip to England a few years ago, and visited the Tower of London, Windsor Castle and Warwick Castle. I had interesting experiences in all of them. I have a few pictures which have, shall we say, "hints of the invisible" in them...

Ever since I was a little girl I've been in love with old houses. Antebellum, Victorian, etc...
They are just amazing to me. They tell so many stories and not many people appreciate them. Anytime I see an old house I have to stop and...

Oh yes. When I step into a medieval castle (and there's a lot of them here in Portugal) I wonder how many lived there in the past, how they lived, how many times people were killed, love was made...

I did get to MAry's House in Turkey. Very powerful.

Easing carefully thru the small door that gave entry under the Secret Society building, I had to stay low to avoid the beams that seemed to be dripping spider webs. Nothing much worse than a face and hair full of spider webs in the...

My friend who is a native to Arizona took me to a place off the beaten path a few years ago.  We had to cross a river with strong currents and climb up a rocky mountain, but when we got there it was worth the struggle. ...

Whoever was upstairs was making a LOT of noise and I was glad I was almost finished with the food down in the kitchen. The man who had unlocked the downstairs for me returned after a few hours and came in the kitchen and...

that a people long ago could build some of the things that were built. I wonder what they did in the location. I'm in awe with the architecture. I like to feel the energy of the place.

There is nothing in the world that compares going on an un-official tour of ancient dwellings.  By that I mean you get to crawl around the heart and soul of a building.  There are no guide ropes to keep you from touching the...

There's not a lot I like better than to explore mysterious ruins. Of course, I don't really get the chance to very often. But every time I go past something like that, or see a picture or video of a ruin, and am not able to fully...

So Ive studied architecture for over four years. and I love it.  I love sitting around identifying the diff. elements on the building.  There is one around here called the Harmening house, and it is in the Italianate style...

This week I have visited a lot of the attractions of Northern Ireland with my visiting friend.  The one in particular that I enjoyed the most to revisit was Dunluce Castle-  the ruins of the castle stand on a cliff in County...

Ooh, I love castles.  And cathedrals.  Maybe it's all the stone.  But then, I love old brick houses too.  And old not-brick houses.  And little, tiny seaside towns where all the buildings were built back in the...

There is something about old places that I draws me.  I dislike boring modern architecture.  I don't care at all for boxes or "cave porches"  I have lived and places that are like this and they have a nice fresh...

I just came back from a vacation in Utah. While there i visited Anasazi state park, it is out in Boulder utah, and is a site where Anasazi used to live, it has remains of their dwellings and village. Very cool, very mysterious.
I wish...
