Those are two good activities. I've got to explore this area some more. I know there's a 1950's Packard in the woods behind me. I've got to get back there and take some shots.

Most buildings from the early to mid 19th century were post and beam construction with mortise and tenon joinery. They could almost last forever if the timber had been subject to the elements and decay!!

Keeping the weather out is the key. No leaks in the roof or big cracks in the walls. Set the posts on flat rocks and good circulation will make them last for years. Look at covered bridges.

Back in the day, I did investigations for a private firm. When taking pictures of a particular place, scene, or location, the first shot or two should be an overview of the spot in order to definitely place that spot or location or what-have-you in the universe. In other words, these 3 photos are of a barn. An old barn. But what does the barn look like? What do its neighbors look like? Where is it? How do we know it's a barn?
