I revisited my favorite abandoned homestead for the second time in
about 30yrs. I was surprised to see it still standing and looking so
good. This is wheat country, so the yellow of it really stands
out.....
On Emerson Loop Rd. near The Dalles in Central Oregon

I like this one even better than the other!
Sandy Su (47 months ago | reply)
Absolutely gorgeous. And yes, it does remind me of a Wyeth paining, too.

What a great photo! This is a great find, wonderful abandoned structure. I love that it's surrounded by nothing but a dead tree and a busted wagon. Well done!

Thanks people! My first picture of this place was in august 1985 with a 35 film camera, so it was fun going back with a Digital.

This shot with the tree partially included seems even more isolated and desolate than the shot of the house alone. It really tells a story
