We’re back with more on our second PhotoCentral tour of Reidsville’s Pennrose Mall. We had fun with Part #1<\/a> and we’re going to have fun with Part #2. Laugh along with us!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Let’s go inside and head up to the old JC Penney location…<\/p>\n

\"\"

Before we open the door, we notice a mysterious half-empty bag of potting soil sitting here for no apparent reason. And a stray Roses shopping cart.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Oh my. Somebody is actually buying one of the petrified gumballs from the machines. Oh yeah, there’s another stray Roses shopping cart.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

This looks just like it did on our November trip. Buckets, pails and lots of water on the concrete floor.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Along with the ceiling tile that is out on the outside of the mall (?!), there’s an old fire exit type of sign in front of the dead end. Huh?<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Since the “lights on each white pole” don’t work anymore, it’s safe to assume that this timer doesn’t work anymore either.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

It appears that somebody has fired a shotgun loaded with grass clumps at the windows at the dead end.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Or maybe it’s art. Whatever it is, those grass clumps have stuck to the window for a long time.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

I’m pretty sure that there’s a water meter under this, but God knows I’m not going to open anything marked “WATER” here.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Yummy, delicious green mold!<\/p><\/div>\n

Two down and plenty more to go. More PhotoCentral articles from the still dead Pennrose Mall are coming up on SouthsideCentral!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
