In places of the cotton mill, nature was trying to find its way in.

I think this was in the train depot that I started this series with, but it could have been in the cotton mill...just not positive. This had the gritty textures that I like to find.

More of the windows in this place. Not positive what the metal T's were for.

Bathroom A or B?

Two bathrooms in the cotton gin, obviously not really in working order anymore.

One had red

This was a large room in the cotton mill which I assume held the majority of the equipment, now just mainly a big, empty room.

And now we start a new series, a possibly longish one. I recently had the opportunity to visit the Mary-Leila Cotton Mill built in 1896 in Greensboro, Georgia. It stopped operation several years ago and had been emptied of most equipment, but it was still fun to explore its two main buildings and the train depot that served the mill. This was taken in the depot. I'm not sure what they had been used for.
