ghost town.


it's funny how things come full circle. as an intern i found myself trying hard to find life in the little town of Laporte while working on a project about the four corners of the county. It's home to the county's oldest general store, but not much else. today i went to show its death. Laporte is one of 40 ghost towns in the county. most are nothing but freshly plowed corn fields today, but a few, like Laporte, struggle to not be forgotten.
