Abandoned Education - Orange School - Waterloo, Iowa

Image
It's a great day at Orange School. Whipped cream is extra. Don't worry if that line makes no sense to you.  It's not supposed to.  Just after the 2015 school year began, Laura and I were on our way from Denver to Minneapolis, with a detour through Waterloo, Iowa. We stayed overnight here, visiting my sister, before proceeding on to our respective parent's houses, in Minnesota. After we checked in to the hotel, we met up with my sister for dinner. Afterwards, Laura went back to the hotel, and I went with her on a drive around Waterloo. Specifically looking for abandoned buildings, or other points of interest to my camera. You never know when you'll need material for whatever story pops in your head to write about. Such as these doomed castle themed apartments. From the outside, they looked awesome, but I guess they were pretty run down on the inside. She said they were talking about tearing them down after the land was sold. These needed to be fixed up, not destroyed...
