me...trespassing~him...bullheaded

my love for old and abandoned

grows daily

and

this past weekend filled me up again

~~

while out shooting this weekend

avoiding areas where dots of orange were also shooting

~darn hunters~

we came across this

~~

stone walls

~that once made a home~

still standing

still beautiful

still determined to survive

even though

the love and the laughter are gone

it now stands tall at the end of a working farm

~~

and

what appeared to be a house

was also next to it

~

abandoned

~we think~

we were going to knock on the front door and ask if we could take photos

but

we couldn't figure out what boarded up area could possibly be an entrance

to the dilapidated house

~even though the mailbox in front looked brand new~

~~

so we took our chances

me with my zoom lens

and

my hubby behind the wheel of our get-away car

just in case

~~

the only one bothered by our presence

was

the bull above

who refused to move

and

who forced me to play a game of

"who's going to blink first"

~~

he won

~~

and

yes

I'll be going back

once I talk to some of the homeowners down the road

to learn a bit more about

the love that once lived here

*

wouldn't senior and family photos be fabulous here
