Alcatraz Island: Part One

I can only imagine what it would've been like to be trapped on this island overlooking San Francisco. So close yet so far away everyone kept saying. Alcatraz itself is a fortress of concrete and steel on a windy island in the bay. The paint is peeling, the walls chipped, and the harshness of the environment is only softened by those other explorers equally as happy to temporarily try a prison cell on for size.

That's wicked! This place is definitely on my list of things to see one day. Cool pics too! But it's no Simpsons house...
