Cee's Photo Challenges 
You’ve given us a hefty portion of decay, and a nice topping of rust, Cee. I’m feeling positively young in comparison 🙂
And I’m sharing some decay here: https://travelwithintent.com/2020/05/07/charm-in-its-decay/

I suspect there will be an increase in decay after this year . . . so many places are going to be struggling
