Abandon...

Driving to work this morning, I thought about all the abandoned houses I see on the way. So this afternoon I stopped by this one. I don't know the story, it was occupied last winter because they always had smoke rising from the chimney. Now it is grown up and there is a chain across the drive.

Would really be interesting to know what happened to this house. It certainly looks livable with just a little tender care and it's such a shame to just see one abandoned.

I always wonder about the story as well. This house looks like it has seen a lot of life.

lonely feel.

I am fascinated by abandoned properties myself.

Sad to see a house with so much protentical sit so lonely among such pretty vegetation.
I agree with Lisa. There is a lonely feel to your image.

@milaniet Agree. There were folks cutting the grass for a while, but now they are gone.

@texastrails Yes, the smoke from the chimney was always inviting looking.

[GaryW]

@lisamccloskey Indeed, Lisa!

[GaryW]

@francoise So am I...thinking of getting more shots of these in my area. Unfortunately there are a number!

@nydelignorsk I know! I think that is what attracted me to take the photo, but didn't know it would elicit that in others. Good to know it speaks to others, as well.
