Snapshots of a Ghost Town (Fayville Vt, 2004)

Fayville was the original of two unconnected settlements that made up the town of Glastenbury, Vermont (c. 1790s-1937). 5 people disappeared in or near Glastenbury between 1945 and 1950; it is considered the center of the so-called Bennington Triangle.

These shots were taken during an expedition on Aug 14, 2004.

I didn’t disappear into any lost horizon on the mountain, which is always a plus. I guess.
