So there I was, driving along, minding my business, along a road I have driven probably hundreds of times, when out of the corner of my eye, a quick break in the trees and what have we here?
Not sure how I ever missed this one before, right under my eyes. Quick turn around and check it out. Obviously abandoned for a long long time. The roof has caved in and so have most of the interior walls. A ladder it doing its best to shore up the back wall. Not much in the way of artistic value or classic architecture, but there it is nonetheless. May have been a fire in one part of the house, probably after the people left. No personal items except for a couple of bicycles and regular household trash. There is also the remains of a barn in the back of the property, in much the same condition as the house.
There is house directly across the road and not much room to park unless you pull in the overgrown driveway, you will be in clear sight of the folks across the road, if they even care.
