Things You Might See in the "Country"
>> Saturday, May 24, 2008
My brother and I and the kids took a little day trip to see my aunt. We were delivering a belated Mother's Day gift.
She doesn't really live in the boonies, but it still has some of the old 'country' (rural) feeling about it that I remember from childhood. It certainly still has the sights:

It's abandoned, clearly, but the neighbors said they left two dogs.
Wonder how much they want for it?
Stop asking!!!
(not gonna ask why they have a big pink sign in the back, either)
The left-behind piano in the 'ancient', dilapidated, one-room church:
And the pulpit:
The farming:
The honeysuckle!
The landscaping:
And Yard Art:
Not one, but two!

The sights look quite reminiscent of what I might see on a country drive around here.
I saw an old church like that, many years ago, while out walking in the piney woods of east Texas. I remember wondering then (as I do now in seeing your pics) why anyone would just up and leave a church and it's contents to waste away and rot with age. :-o
Thank you for your kind words on my blog today. :-)
Somebody sure wanted that car I guess!!
Rural might be an understatment, but it's very cute.
I agree with Renna, why would somebody leave a piano?

I want the pulpit!!! Oh, my mom would have taken it in a heart beat and refinished it. *sigh*
That sign in the car just cracked me up!
Wonderful pictures. I especially like the one of the car with the sign declaring it is not for sale. That is great!
I also like the chickens in the trees.
