Description
Taken in Grafton, a small ghost town in Utah's Dixie. The town was settled in the 1860s, suffering numerous floods and the harsh life of the frontier. Abandoned in the 1940s, the town fell to ruin and vandals. Currently in restoration, the town attracts visitors from around the world.

I love places like this and good for you on taking advantage of the situation. Seems like that is an old school or church...not sure witch, but nonetheless a nice composition and capture.

Thank you for the comments. The building in the front actually served as church, school and community center. There were regular dances and community socials held in the old building. It is also the most photographed ghost town structure in the southwest U.S.
