Remnants

This steel framework is one of the many remaining structures being dismantled at the former Quincy Shipyard site. At one time there were 32,000 workers working in this "yard". Neighboring residents knew the time of day by the shift whistles that blew day and night.

Perfect angle, particularly considering the direction this structure is heading. I love the rusty grids against the blue sky.

It is sad to drive by there and only see the rows and rows of cars parked there.

This tiger swallowtail butterfly was a delight to see pollinating the phlox bed along my driveway.
