derelict in the nexus

errands between midwestern towns ( county seats actually ) took me deep into the nexus and found me in what was once rural indiana...there are still relics of that rustication around..for a time at least...and while i did not have time ( how totemic of the suburban side of the nexus ) to stop and lollygag about because of appointments that cost money i still took a few shots from a rolling pickup coming into wheeler from the east...this is a golden sun feeds elevator ( if you blow up the second photo you can read the rusty sign ) that once, one would assume, was large enough to house the local harvest for railroad shipment ( the tracks are still there, remarkably )...in the days before liberty link dense yellow number two delivered two hundred bushel an acre harvests and the work was more human labor and a lot less chemical...too small these days...unused and derelict...falling into serious disrepair and pretty much doomed to be razed when the property it sits on becomes an economically viable parcel...they are all over around here and reminiscent of an earlier culture that has been fairly well paved over with highways and tract housing...the last photo is of yet another ubiquitous microwave tower...a sure sign that we are on the nexus of things...the fault line of the kulturkampf...i need to go to the garden.
