Across the gravel road from the barn, was a car resting on it's side, it's hood flung a few feet. Almost as if it failed while trying to escape from the carnage across the way.
That barn and car have been there for decades, there was a homestead here at some point. Now the barn sits alone as time passes it by.
Desolate comes to mind. You wonder how long the barn can last.
ReplyDeleteHi William, I always wonder that too when I see these old places.
DeleteSeeing your photos makes me want to brave the freezing cold & be there just to feel the remoteness of this great old barn & car graveyard!
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, it's so still and quiet out there, except for the wind!
DeletePoor old saggy barn. I know just how it feels.
ReplyDeleteLOL, it's got a few more good years!
DeleteI find these pics rather sobering - like the end of the world has come. Great pics though!
ReplyDeleteHi RedPat, if someone lived out here, they might just miss the end of the world happening lol!
DeleteHow is it standing with the wind able to blow through it? It was a sturdy barn in its day!
ReplyDeleteHi Marie, yes these old barns were made to last!
DeleteLove both the barn and the car on its side! That third photo looking right through the barn is my favourite.
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve, I like the one too.
DeleteI'm surprised that the car is still on its side. You'd think there would have been a strong wind at one time to blow it over. The edge of the universe can't be far away from here.
ReplyDeleteYour photos once again show the beauty of the desolate land you travel.
Thanks Bill, I wondered how long it's been like that, how did it happen. It's almost like the scene of an accident or something.
DeleteThey've both seen better days
ReplyDeleteHi Adam....very true!
DeleteJenn you come across the most interesting abandon places. Keep them coming.
ReplyDeleteThanks Andy! Nothing will stop me from exploring! :)
DeleteAnother great series .... post more car pics if you have them - we'll I.D. them for you :-)

Hi Frank, do you know what this one is?
DeleteHey Jenn, I can't see much of it but the back window curvature indicates a '46-'48 Ford Sedan :-)
DeleteThat's kind of cool :) The photo of the car reminds me of Fargo. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Rain! Part of Fargo was filmed in Alberta!
DeleteAmazing find! Reminds me of old pics of the Midwest during the dust bowl....so desolate and sad but still so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteFamily Day sounds like a great holiday! Hope you have enjoyed it!
Hi Tanya, yes these area would be very similar to that. I also find them sad but beautiful.
DeleteOh and those sweet little diamond shaped windows ☺ you really have to wonder what the story is here Jenn!
