My neighbors are 5th generation Quaker Orchardists; they established their first small store in 1829. At the back edge of their property is this old, abandoned barn. Every time I'd drive by, I was tempted to take a picture and finally did.

Another good subject for a challenge, Judy, and should draw a good participation. Thanks for hosting again.

It's readily evident that there is no one geographic area that has a hold on dilapidated structures. At least that's my take from our travels.

An old village in Hainan, China. My Chinese colleagues gave every appearance of shock at their discovery that such places still existed in 1994.


I can't imagine. It makes the rural parts of Moldova look like mansions.

I have a number of images of decrepit buildings in Kenya, but I am choosing to present only one, because of its historical significance. When I visited this site in the '60s, I was told it was the "original" building of the first mission established by the Church Missionary Society in East Africa (they were in Ethiopia rather earlier than this, but expelled with all other missionaries in 1842). The founder of the Rabai mission, Ludwig Krapf, one of those expelled from Ehiopia, spent his first couple of years in or near Mombasa, familiarising himself with the people and their language. In 1846 he established his base at Rabai, in the coastal hills, for health reasons.

Today, there is a rather grand church and museum at Rabai, celebrating, at least by Anglicans, the foundation of Kenya Christianity at Rabai.

Wonder what story this one could tell; perhaps a tale of Harley Warrick when he applied its last coat of paint? This one looks like it was done at least twice from the number of the "signatures" barely visible on the lower right corner of the building.

Spotted this on the road (WV 250?) chasing covered bridges near Hundred, WV. Just had to turn around and take some shots. Glad I did, as the barn and the advertising are no longer standing.

(Didn't store the original as taken with P&S back in July of 2006 and image quality not the best when viewed larger.)

Thanks for the challenge and enjoy.

I remember seeing these signs on barns when we traveled on "family vacations" years ago.
