Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! Kirkbride Muuuud Boggin’!

Kirkbride Muuuuud Boggin'!

I thought this article looked funny: Owners Want Mud Bog at Weston Hospital.

To be fair, it sounds like the mud bog would be a good distance from the historic buildings, so it’s not as weird as it sounds. I just can’t get the picture of monster trucks spewing mud and crushing cars on the Kirkbride front lawn out of my head though…

    i had grandfather die in the weston state hospital. mud bogs, ghost hunters and all the baloney is such a waste for a grand old place. the governor just unloaded the place without any real consideration for weston or the old hospital. it should have been given to a corporation or a charity that would have made it beautiful again. i have pictures of my italian grandmother sitting by the fountain when the lawns were beautiful. i hope the jordans will sell it to a worthy owner.
