    Wow! If it weren’t for that little section of the sigh showing, I’d never have known there was a structure behind that green:)
    Could you enter the premises?:)

      I know eh? Almost completely invisible.

      Not that I could see. But a very public place, so a bit difficult to fully investigate.

    Awesome timing as always. I like it. Too bad he didn’t wear a green T too! 😉

    Lovely photograph. Beautiful foliage.
    We have a few similarly clad old walls around here and they look wonderful – especially when they turn yellow/orange/red later in the year.
    As a veteran haiko explorer I’m suprised you don’t just don your ghillie suit and osmose your way in 🙂

      Thanks. Yeah, that’s a good call on the autumnal colours. This could be absolutely spectacular. Will have to remember to go back when the timing is right. A nice thought actually, as the current rainy season gloom and humidity already has me longing for more comfortable weather.

      Haha, if I could choose a special power, being able to osmose my way into abandoned buildings would definitely be high on the list!

        You would be one with the osmose!

    Thanks for the reminder, my neighbour’s ivy is spilling over again. I’m happy enough just to see it in their garden!

      Hopefully it stays only in their garden!

    Ahhhh…kudzu! When I first moved to Northern Virginia back in ’82, the entire metro DC region was suffering a MASSIVE kudzu infestation. It was EVERYWHERE. You literally couldn’t see trees, utility poles, and old houses and yards were always disappearing the moment you turned your back on them for only a moment. Thankfully there’s very little of it left.

      That must have been quite a sight, although obviously a dreaded one for those tasked with getting rid of it.

        I honestly don’t recall what they did, but it took about 10 years before it finally started to disappear.
