Deep Lake Prison, Florida
Rick , who is a friend of mine, told me about this abandoned prison down in the Everglades and after he checked it out and posted his pictures, I just had to see it for myself. So I dragged my husband down there yesterday and took some shots. I am one of ‘those people’ who believes in ghosts. I don’t want to SEE them or hear them, but I believe. Sometimes I do get a ‘feeling’ about a place, and believe it or not this place didn’t scare me. What DID scare the heck out of me was hearing a snake rustle through some grass a few yards away from me.Church Hill Train Tunnel
