More structures at the old WES...

I went back today and went to the very back of the park where there are few/no trails and looked around. There are old foundations everywhere, a few old buildings still standing here and there, some empty and some with machinery still inside, although now it's quiet and rusting away. Old pumps, some with engines still attached, most with parts that have been removed long ago.
It's hard to tell what types of buildings most of these were, some have electrical and plumbing still laying around, most are just cinder block and concrete pieces left to the elements.
.
The buildings are slowly being taken over by nature and decay, some by indirect means, trees falling have caused damage to some, most are just succumbing to the elements. most buildings still standing have windows, but there are several with bars over single windows and steel doors, fallen askew, but intact
More foundations giving way to trees, etc...
This drain looked kind of out of place, about 3 ft long, draining to nowhere particular now that it's surroundings are gone. And the gas can doesn't look as if it has been touched since 1969 when this place shut down..
There were piles of rocks at several places, some large, some small piles. And on the way out, I came by to check on a Geocache that I placed here quite a few years ago. If you don't know what a geocache is, visit geocaching.com, it's a good way to get out and see interesting places, like this...
