Historic, Rural Hopkinton, New York - Part 2

I was taking a driving tour of Hopkinton (see also yesterday's post) and stopped by this farm house with a loader parked out front:

And corn fields everywhere except for where there were hay fields, houses or forests:

Another charming old house comfortably situated beneath old Maples:

An especially nice farm house and barn:

And what must have been a home with children, for they had a trampoline out front:

So this ended my driving tour of the town of Hopkinton, New York:
