Another 15 year old shot from my home town. In my day the building with the banners was a general store, the AmVets building was a hotel, and I can't remember what the closest building was. If you see signs, of AI here, I removed a parked car and did a lousy job. :-)
Nice shot. Good job on the removal.
Five more from Missouri. The school house is gone. The famer was worried it would fall on his cattle.

Old barn with a new car. Good shot.

More Barns of the Palouse. I thought the 4th was unique in that you put the grain in on the uphill side and unload it on the downhill side. Clever.
Beautiful captures Leland. I really like the round barn.

This log cabin has an interesting history as told to me. We were driving around doing photography near Red Lodge Montana and met a local lady who took us here. She said a lady moved her family here after the great Chicago fire after she had lost everything including her husband and built this. Note the stream coming down the mountain right behind the house. If you have not been to the Beartooth area, put it on your bucket list. We spent 5 days driving the roads of The Big Sky Country in that area.

Rufe, this are some fine images, yours and the others as well. If you like old building images, there is a site called "Forgotten Missouri" which features of old Missouri buildings. One of the posters is a fellow named Rufus Harmon who posts excellent images of structures usually beyond the point of salvation. His image of a barn and some cattle is the front image of the post this week. He had a picture of some doors from Paytown, Missouri which I thought was a type and he meant Raytown, there actually is (or perhaps was) a Paytown in Maries Co. He is somewhat famous (or is it infamous) on that site for his witticisms. Rufe --Rufus--Hmm.

Is the first one a Doctors office?
I travel the backroads in Missouri and am always seeing barns or building that are close to the end of their life. Let's see what you have in your area. I started this because I didn't see that one had been started. When the one that should have been here, I'm happy to step aside. January 29 - Feb 03 2024
The first one is from Maine and the rest from Missouri. I put a song on here. It's Merle Haggard and Leona Williams. I think they were married for a short period. Leona is from Vienna, MO and still lives in or close to Vienna. Vienna is about 26 miles from Jefferson City, MO. a small rural town in the middle of nowhere.

Self Portrait was in Alaska. I was fishing for salmon during the salmon run. If that is Peak Island that was in Maine and the rest in Missouri.
Jesus was walking around Heaven one day. In a small, secluded garden He saw an old man, crying. Alarmed, Jesus ran up to him and said, “Hey, now, what’s all this? This is paradise. There should be no tears or sorrow.”
The old man wiped away his tears and said, “Oh, I know. I’m sorry. But… well, many years ago, a son came to me through… well, let’s say ‘mysterious circumstances’. After many trials he went through a miraculous transformation, and a book was written about him that became known the world over. I thought I would find him here, but I haven’t. I’m afraid I’ll never see him again.”
Wide-eyed, Jesus looked at the man and said, “Wait a minute… You weren’t, by any chance… a carpenter, were you?”
The man looked up in surprise. “Why, yes. Yes, I was!”
Jesus burst into tears of joy and held out His arms saying, “Father!”
The man cocked his head doubtfully and said, “Pinocchio???
