County Route 50, Along The Deer River In Brasher, New York - Part 2

I was touring County Route 50, heading from Brasher Falls to North Lawrence and it was exceedingly rural. I never saw another car during the entire drive. But I sure did see some nice country scenery:

There were birches along the road, backed up by White Pines and fronted by cattails:

Brasher State Forest was in evidence everywhere:

But there was also agriculture. This collection of farm machinery was clustered out in a field:

And there were lovely old barns:

This is the opposite side of the barn in the above photo. The Ford tractor parked inside made it clear to me that this barn was still in active use:

Another small barn:

This large wooden structure sat right up next to the road and I decided it must have been used for hay storage. There was no hay in it this winter, though. A crumpled metal silo sat just behind it:

There were lovely old farm houses:

This home had a handicapped ramp, lots of Christmas decorations and toys for kids. I imagined a very happy and active family lived there:

The houses became more modern as I neared the intersection:

This was the last house on the road, after which I turned onto another county road and headed for North Lawrence and then home:
