I turned onto County Route 56 from Connor Road in Parishville (see previous post) at this old, unoccupied log cabin:

This home had firewood but the driveway wasn't plowed. Perhaps it was someone's weekend retreat:

A large, old farm house, built of Potsdam Red Sandstone. It was unoccupied, though the farm was active:

The farm attached to the above home was active, though I couldn't tell where the family lived:
