This is Nate sitting on the porch of an unoccupied house next door to the house where he lived with his father. This neighborhood is behind the High Point Theatre and is composed mostly of varying styles of two bedroom cracker-box homes. I like the symmetry of this house, and the rare white house among the browns and bricks of the city gives it an out of place quality. I should go photograph what it looks like now. Last time I went by it someone had painted flowers in the front porch, long imaginary green stems curling up out of the foundation and sunflowers blooming on either side of the stairs.
