Hey Sweetie

Durand Depot

 This is a great building to photograph! You can shoot it from every angle...even from the the tracks which is breaking the law (learn something new everyday)

 Had very little time to shoot inside and didn't make it upstairs. I love the color outside the window of this ticket window.

 I was thrilled to get some photos of trains. When we were there last time, no trains came through. My last posting of the depot last November, I wrote about the history of the station. If you are interested check my November 2013 archives.
Also shot some great train graffiti which I will post shortly.

Red Barn Site #3

 Quoting from the Washtenaw County Barn website:  "This L-shaped barn has a poured concrete and fieldstone foundation. The barn forms an L shape around a gambrel-roofed barn with a curve at the bottom of the L. The roof is rounded rather than angular. Farmers commonly called gambrel roofs "hipped" roofs for the roof's wide side panels".
This property is for sale according to the daughter of the owner, who lived next door and came over to give us permission to be on the property. Another well kept farm, even though it is not a working farm at this time. I have shot this barn before, a few summers ago. There are a lot of out buildings and everything is in ship shape order.

 Wondering what this building is for...once an ice house perhaps or a well. I should have taken a peek inside.

 View from the back.

 Heavy traffic on the road.

Had fun doing these shots. Richard, always an interesting guy and that's Steve doing the balancing act.

A lot of land out here.
