Vault Doors at the old First Security Bank, St Anthony


My last photos of these doors were a bit out of focus.  I wanted some sharp images.  I really like the vivid read doors and the varied colors and texture of the space.

Riverside Ru Inn, St Anthony, Idaho









I met Ken Matthews in St Anthony last week and spent way too much time shooting the breeze with the guy.  He is an incredible guy who can lay stone, engineer, and talk philosophy and religion.  Between paying jobs, he has a formidable personal project going...the restoration of "RU Inn" in St Anthony.  The creative take on the project is what makes Ken's project distinctive and one heck of a story.  I began documenting the process and hope to work with Ken to preserve the history of the place.  The structure used to be a hotel and the old First Security Bank in St Anthony.  Its future is in a fluid state: perhaps a destination inn, perhaps a artists' community space, perhaps?  I hope to record the story as it unfolds.
