Now this is indeed a very UNIQUE structure Bob! Your caption describes it quite well! LOve the old cars and the building in the rear.
Great tones here also!

A long time ago I recall hearing about a guy who actually took a chain saw to his house when his ex-wife was awarded half of it. No idea of it was true, but maybe you found the place.
I really like the tones in the wood and the way you composed this. Great sky for b&w.

Not that I'm aware of however location scenes were filmed there in the newly renovated hotel.

Thanks Brent,
Next visit I'll make it a point to note the structure's purpose.

Wow! Maybe part of an old movie set?
Perhaps, I'll sort out next trip that way.
In relation to your Chinese Camp set, my understanding is many old Oregon towns and structures, being timber construction, were destroyed by fire - an annual threat. I'm trying to recall but I believe only the Shaniko Hotel, a brick structure, is not completely wood.
