Plog 11-1-08: Built To Last
Finishing up vacation to South Dakota, the last photo trip I took was to this old place in the middle of nowhere. It was found by a family member while looking for some acres that were being auctioned off on Sunday (found Friday).
The house OLD. Possibly mid 1800's (I was looking to buy a house in town that was built in 1897, so i is possible). The whole house is built with large bricks. Similar to cinderblock but apparently mixed on site. Why do I say that? Well, they are full of rocks and pebbles that look like they are from the immediate area. The roof is built of wood and "tiled" with tin under wood shingles.
We couldn't get inside as there was really no safe way in and we had no flashlights with us. It was obviously a farm at some time and has a cattle watering "lake" to the right of where the camera is pointing. There were lots of bones in and around the lake (cattle).
Very interesting spot and I got a lot of neat images (more to be uploaded soon).
