Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to was never there, and where you are is no good unless you can get away from it. ... Nothing outside you can give you any place. -Flanner O'Connor, Wise Blood

Down the street from our home in Little Rock, AR stood this vacant structure. The story goes that a young husband built it for his new bride. It was to be her dream home, but she died before the home was completed. Her husband could never bring himself to sell or finish the home.

I worked on this project days before we were to move out of the state. Despite the approval of neighbors, the police showed up just before I finished. Consequently, the mud was scrubbed off just as it dried. A fitting ending for O'Connor's words.
