Field Trip

We traveled over to a neighboring county  to look at a survey job.  This was such a neat place.  An old settlement along an abandoned county road...Lots of  neat old buildings!

love the tattered curtains and all the natural rock. Note the unbroken blue fruit jars.

Lots of hand-hewn limestone..very impressive

neat stairway!

Would liked to have peeked into this!

so many neat old buildings....would really liked to have explored them!

Huge Sycamore along the old county road..what  appearsto be a sign grown into the tree..

It was a neat place and so glad we went!  the picture of this store was from the trip over there.  Neat looking place!

County Roads

We traveled some coutny roads this weekend.  The sunset picture was taken Friday night out in the Dry Creek area.  I enjoyed this sunset for a long time....it was amazing!

Neat barn! Picture taken today along Lambeth road

Miller County Area

We took a drive last week to look over a survey job that is in Eastern Miller Co/Western Maries Co.  Saw this single gravestone that has been fenced/cared for.  Nice gate too..

I should have gotten out and tried to read it. I will next time!

This time of year you can sure see the old buildings due to the lack of leaves/vegetation.  What stories these places could tell!

Sure would like to go  walk around these places and get a closer look...

neat porch!
