Another find on my way to one of my Grandson's football games. This was near Louisiana, Mo and close to the Mississippi River that eventually flows to the Gulf of Mexico at New Orleans, Louisiana. I was lucky to catch a perfect sky.
Someone had sprayed "Keep Out" on the front of the house, so I didn't venture past the end of the driveway. I could almost hear children playing in the yard and the smell of fried chicken coming from the house. It's always a sad experience for me to discover the bones of once proud homes and out buildings. However, we live in a throw away society and it's always on to newer and what they deem as better things. Better is not always how it turns out.

I can imagine kids shouting and playing in front of the house. Sad to see what has become of a once happy home.

I too have a nostalgia for the past and old homes, cars etc. and think it's a shame to see them taken down or abandoned...a great old house here that no doubt once brimmed with sound and activity...I wonder what tales it could tell...wonderful find and capture.

What a picture you have here, Tick. From theme, to composition, to colors, to focus, all just wonderful.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
It's also a sad commentary on the once proud farms in the USA Tick. This was quite beautiful at another point in time and proudly maintained by the farmer and his wife. Excellent post!

This must have been an impressive house at one time. Don't know that I'd want to leave it. The young think something new and bigger is better. Good part of the time they are wrong. This one is worth saving I'd say. Great capture.

Owd Fella Tick (OFT), I assume that financial aspects are often given a higher priority rather than the preservation of cultural and historical heritage. Terribly sorry. History isn't for free, but a country without sufficient awareness of its own history, even though it's financially rich, is in my view a poor country.
