Abandoned Too<br /> <br /> Saw this abandoned house down near Salem, IN on our way to Beck's Mill. Temp was high along with the humidity (had just stopped raining) so when I got out of the van to take a couple shots everything including my optics fogged up. I was pretty upset about it at the time. However, I liked the softness and mood of this shot so decided to go ahead and post it.

Abandoned Too

Saw this abandoned house down near Salem, IN on our way to Beck's Mill. Temp was high along with the humidity (had just stopped raining) so when I got out of the van to take a couple shots everything including my optics fogged up. I was pretty upset about it at the time. However, I liked the softness and mood of this shot so decided to go ahead and post it.

  • Salem Courthouse<br /> <br /> "For much of its existence, the center piece for Salem’s town square has been the county courthouse. The first, built on pillars, gaining it the nickname “Stilted Castle of Justice,” opened in 1816, but by 1824 was deemed unsubstantial and was ordered replaced. The present day courthouse -- the third at that location -- opened in 1888, a spectacular structure that today stands as one of the crown jewels among Indiana’s 92 courthouses."<br /> Source: <a href="http://cityofsalemin.com/history.html">http://cityofsalemin.com/history.html</a>
  • Morgan's Raid<br /> Courthouse at Salem, IN<br /> <br /> "In June 1863, the Confederate cavalry under John Hunt Morgan had departed Tennessee on what would later became known as Morgan's Raid. Traveling through Tennessee and into Kentucky, Morgan eventually crossed into Indiana; he reached Salem on July 10, 1863, coming north from Corydon. Upon entering Salem at approximately 9 a.m., Morgan immediately took possession of the town and placed guards over the stores and streets. The cavalrymen burned the large, brick railroad depot, along with all the train cars on the track and the railroad bridges on each side of the town. Morgan demanded taxes from the two flour mills that belonged to DePauw and Knight, and from the Allen Wollen Mill. Morgan's men looted stores and took about $500 from the area before departing about 3 p.m."<br /> Source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salem">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salem</a>,_Indiana<br /> <br /> Historical Marker:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.in.gov/history/markers/348.htm">http://www.in.gov/history/markers/348.htm</a>
