One can't help but wonder is there anyone around that remembers living here.
If it had been summer when we passed this place, it would barely have been noticeable. The top picture would not have sure been different. I even wonder would I have been able to take that view at all. I waded through briars to get this shot.
I wonder how many blizzards this old home has seen, how many children grew up here, how many families have come and gone. Just so many things I would like to know.

I'm glad you found this place. Can you imagine the stories this place could tell?
Long forgotten, I think! And yes, these buildings offer many more questions than answers. Great photos!
I really like that header photo, too!
I wonder why it was abandoned. Seems very sad to me.
What a neat old house, it does make one wonder about its history. I'm sure it has many stories.
I didn't know you had another blog. They are habit forming, first one, then another and another. I'm up to four but one is just a test blog where I can experiment. Very addictive.
I love the photos you have on this one too, great shots.
