A nice set, but that last one is great, Teens can be very smart, if they use their energies for constructive things.

This is my first post under the new format so I hope this is all ok.
The first two are from an area up in the mountains near Albuquerque. They have seen better days.
The last is from a trip to Mesa Verde Indian ruins. Abandoned when times and likely lack of water became too hard to support the village.
What amazes me is that the age of the Anazazi at that time was thought to be less than 30. Basically built by teenagers.

That might be nice, if they plan to perverse it. Might be bad if they just fence it off and let it rot.

THis bridge is abandoned although it does not look like it. If you cross it right at the end, maybe ten feet away is a NO TRESPASSING...PRIVATE PROPRTY sign. Someone bought up the whole area there and blocked the road.

Nice lines in this unusual POV. I hope whoever didn't move all the way to heave (or otherwise). Provokes lots of questions.

Are those native rocks used to build it? They are beautiful. Nice captures.

Yes, they are beauties for sure. Glad you keep finding them. Sorry about the one I posted today. I found it on my laptop and it was so small, I thought it was straight, now I see that it needs to be straightened.

The first one really looks abandoned and left to rot away. How sad. Thanks for sharing.

This looks like a home that had a lot of children who ran an played there. Great find. Nice photos.

Undoubtedly a nice home in its younger days. In the 3rd image you can see through the front door to a pane of glass on the back wall. Very old glass as told by the waves in the pane, probably an original.

Nice find, Agnes. First class barns.

Here is one abandoned because it burned. Not much left.

That brings up a lot of different stories. Nice shot.

I t doesn't look like anyone has sat there in along time. Maybe the stick was for beating off varmints.

Really interesting place. Looks like that family had a dog. I'll bet the varmints love the leftover dog food. Scary!

Investigated an abandoned house I've passed by for years...on the way home from work. Wonder what happened to the owner and what the house could tell us!
