A different outcome

A different outcome by Aunt Owwee.
This house is the same layout as the old farmhouse I live in. It didn't make it into the 21st century.

Nice textures here. How sad and it doesn't look like it could be rescued. How lucky you are.

Lovely composition with the bare trees and brown grass surrounding the house. Decay certainly has its own beauty.

There is beauty in decay, isn't there? and so many different ways for farmsteads to go. Another flickrite has documented this place. I'll have to find that link.

The link is here

Hey! I know this place!!!

I can't wait for spring to come so I can go take some more closeups. Unfortunately, I saw them moving some dirt around right near it- I hope they aren't going to tear it down.

I just saw it for the first time the other day. Then I found it on yours and jomo?'s streams. Moving dirt around it? utoh.

Yeah, a bulldozer was moving some dirt immediately east of the house :-( (which is an odd thing to do when the ground is frozen anyways)

Jowo lives in Mulliken, and I asked him if he knew whether it would be demo'd or not, and he hasn't heard anything.

There is another "rotting" house about a mile west of this, on the north side of the road. You might want to check it out too :-)

-Cheers

Thanks, ten! I was coming home on Mt. Hope from the Ionia road the other day. I caught that other "rotting" house too late to find a place to pull off. However, it did slow me down enough so I could stop for this one.

It was cool finding your stream and Jowo's stream. Jowo has some pictures of my uncle's house.

It is a small world, isn't it?
