Prompt #29

        Traffic was insane as cars were back to back everywhere. The interstate went from two lanes to three lanes to five lanes and back again. Drivers were crazy as they drove recklessly and honked at each other for no reason. U-turns were done constantly since it was not illegal there.
        Many buildings were old and worn down. Some were abandoned with no windows left unbroken. Colorful graffiti covered everything in sight from gas stations to grocery stores. Despite the cold weather, people were walking on the sidewalks everywhere. Old wired fences with holes in them were alongside many of the streets.
In one of the small neighborhoods, houses were bordered up and seemed empty. Other houses looked unlivable they were so run down. Paint was peeling off sides of houses, garages, and mailboxes. Front steps were either tilting or had a broken step.
I never expected Manchester, New Hampshire to look so run down like it did. It didn’t look like anything special. I thought that Manchester would some what resemble Portland, Maine or Boston, Massachusetts. A city with nice looking buildings, great views, and many places and things to see. I couldn’t have been more wrong about Manchester. It was a chaotic dump that I wouldn’t consider revisiting.
