Once there was a house

that welcomed everyone in by the road side............

it's charm still hanging on as best it can.........

Through this front door, guest would be welcome

to come sit by the fire

and to stay for supper

and later in the afternoon, gather round the piano to sing..........

The old car that once carried the family members,

sleeps in rust out by the old mesquite tree.............

There's not much left to this old house................

or of the family that once lived there...........

 

These photos were taken on a road trip last week as I was out and about.........searching and picking.

I cannot resist, pulling over to an old house that seem to call out.........and to stop by a place of rest

and  read the names of those who have gone on .

How about you?
Do you love to explore abandoned and forgotten places?

I would love to hear!
