In Keeping with the Season

Some people might find these images a bit unsettling, hinting at abandonment and decay.
On the contrary, these images speak to me of the presence of people, of working families, generation after generation, carrying on a tradition of working the land.   They speak to me of stability and longevity.
This may have been the original homestead of a multigenerational family farm.

Not far from these seemingly abandoned outbuildings is the home that later generations of this rural family lived in and, a little beyond is the foundation of the new home under construction that subsequent generations will occupy.
