White Road In Winthrop, New York - Part 1

I was on my way to the feed store and decided to take a brief detour to photograph the rural scenery on White Road. I began, however, on Route 11 with this barn:

A sprawling farm house with old fashioned Lilacs in front. They'll be blooming in the spring:

I have often seen this "For Sale" sign and thought it referred to whatever equipment was near it. But a closer look convinced me they were selling land, and the nearby equipment was just a coincidence:

An old barn, almost fallen down:

 This house appears to have been abandoned:


White Road has some large, prosperous looking farms like this one:

Another prosperous looking farm:

Outbuildings and a silo:

A house with a nice porch, behind a large stump which was once probably a big Sugar Maple:

It had just snowed an hour ago, but the sun had since come out and the woodlands along the road were frosted with snow. The snowbanks along the road, as you can see, were pretty high:

These cattle were pretty far off the road and I had to use my zoom lens. What struck me was how thin they were, especially in comparison to my own obese cattle. But there was more to see on White Road, and I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
