Several forgotten Victorian-era homes with unique shapes and interesting contents left behind also grace the pages of this title. Let us not forget the old-time gas station with the ding-ding, mechanic on duty, full-service gas pumps, and travel maps. Old defunct churches (from the days of outhouses and hand fans as air conditioners), a hidden one-room schoolhouse, antique cars and trucks slowly sinking into the fields, and so much more are showcased in this nostalgic title.

Crumbling bricks, distressed steel, paint, wood, and weathered remnants of human life are crossed by time, vandalism, and animal tracks, inviting one to picture what once was.

Readers are encouraged to explore the forgotten corners of the state, see the world through different eyes, and take the long road home.
