Looks like an interesting place for a little adventure, although probably only in broad daylight and accompanied by a very large and protective gentleman companion.

I wonder who lived here and what their story was.

i wish you'd put together a coffee table book of your deserted/decaying homes and barns. i think it would be fantastic! (i know - you'd probably prefer to do the courthouse one first...) :)

Reminds me of the movie Last Picture Show. :) Great capture Kathy.

That's a tiny house- the porch looks like it was bigger than the living area!

This is fantastic! I envision a tough old lady sitting on the front porch with her shotgun, ready to ward off intruders. Or, a sweet elderly couple passing the time playing cards or checkers. So many of those types of scenarios come to mind. Awesome!

Wow!!! Ghosts abound around this place I think:)

You've captured the spirit of this place perfectly!

Wow, nice old abandoned building.

"Come and sit for a spell". Isn't that what the witch said to Hansel and Gretel? :-)

Wonderful old building, Kathy--I just love it! Hey, I might get your way next spring when I go visit a friend....we'll email about this! :-)

Nice capture!

Reminds me of an old movie set. I can see the bandits siting around a table under this overhang giving the barmaid looks while discussing their next raid.

I love photos like this. Tons of character.

What a find. Unfortunately for me to find cool places like this I would have to go into the city in the 'bad' parts. I would never go alone and never with pricey camera equipment around my neck. I drove through an area 2 days ago and wished I could stop and take photos, but I wouldn't dare get out of the car.
