Beechertown, New York

The next stop on my driving tour was tiny Beechertown, a settlement at the very rural intersections of Elliot Road, Nichols Road, Converse Road and Sullivan Road. I began with this small home:

Followed by this rather large farm:

Another view of that same barn:

A friendly home with lots of windows and a picket fence:

A large, modern home set way back off the road:

And an old barn from a bygone era, slowly rotting into the ground:

I was surprised to learn that I was driving through Fort Jackson State Forest:

These two dogs watched, but didn't bark as I stopped to take a picture. Luckily, my dogs didn't bark either or I'd have had to drive away quickly:

A horse barn:

A home with a collection of canoes and a livestock trailer:

this beautiful farm with its cluster of small buildings was one of my favorites:

And a rather prim and proper farm, all fixed up, squared up and neatly organized. I wondered if there might be an Amish family living there. But I'd come to the end of Beechertown and decided to head for home. I'll post about that tomorrow:
