Recently a historic mansion in the middle of Capitola burned down. Well, technically it didn't burn down. Someone set fire to it (obviously) and now parts of it are pretty much burned out. Not that it was a great focal point to begin with considering it's 60 year abandonment. It's sectioned off with chain link fences and caution tape and the premises is armed with police guards. So... Anthony and I decided to check it out. We went down to the Perry Park trail and took photos through the fence.
Here is the backside. You can't walk over there
Anthony realized we were on a sort of "hike" so I should then refer to him as John Beaverson
This is the entryway to the mansion property. It is a huge wooden door set in a stone wall that spans the entire property.

Isn't it amazing that something can be abandoned, for so long? Of course, the upkeep of such a place...yikes! Great pics :)
