A few weeks ago my hubby decided on a whim he wanted to take a road trip. He wanted to just drive on cool roads and see pretty stuff along the way. He found a route that is popular among motorcycle clubs. So we got in the car and we were off. It was very pretty scenery and we saw some cool little towns along the way. When we were passing thru Mineral Wells we saw this huge old building all borded up. We both love exploring old buildings so we got out of the car and walked around the outside. We would have loved to go inside, but it’s obviously against the law and we had our boys with us. I did stick my camera in a few broken out windows and got some cool shots. When we got home later that night Jayson decided to look the building up on the internet. It turned out to be the Baker Hotel. Built in the 1920′s and has been closed down since the 1970′s. It’s also one of the top 10 haunted buildings in texas. I’m glad I found that out later and not while we were there. It did seem alittle creepy. There was this one busted out window and I stuck my face in to look around. The air right inside was much cooler, like a freezer. It was strange since it was pretty warm outside and all the other windows felt like it did outside. Now knowing it’s haunted and been shut down since the 70′s it really creeps me out. Anyways, I hope you enjoy my story and looking at these pictures. Jayson’s bugging me already to go on another road trip and explore.
