Snowy, Rural Beauty On County Route 56 - Part 2

I was taking a driving tour of County Route 56 and enjoying the beautiful rural scenery such as this farm house with a barn and silo out back. As a side note - our weather began to moderate yesterday and reached temperatures above freezing. Yet even though our snow is melting, things still look pretty much like this:

A spectacular old barn:

And a not so spectacular old barn:

This corn field was backed up by woodlands, with more farm fields beyond that and more woodlands beyond those - and farm silos on the horizon:

A farm house with a wonderful back porch:

D&D Small Engine Repair:

I see lots of tractors on mailboxes, but this was a surprise to me and, I thought, very clever. I guess I don't need to tell you what this person's winter hobby was:

Another country home, all comfy and warm despite the winter weather outside:

This old tractor, silo and hay bales had apparently not been accessed recently, at least not since the last snowfall, but they make a wonderful scene for a photo:

Snowmobiles, pickup with snowplow, split rail fence with corn stalk and lots of rural trimmings. This is country living:

Another logging operation. This one clearly seemed to be for firewood:

This old barn housed a small flock of very calm and friendly sheep. They watched me with interest but no alarm as I snapped their picture. Yet there was still more to see on this country road and I'll post Part 3 tomorrow:
