Scenic Buckton Road - Part 2

I was touring scenic Buckton Road (see Part 1, yesterday's post) on a cold winter's day. This lovely old barn and farm equipment made a remarkably scene:

Another old barn:

And a farm house with additions, front porch and a unique window:

I passed by both farm fields and woodlands:

And many homes had old maples out front:

This low rise barn, coral and pine tree must have housed horses, though I didn't see any:

Another classic farm house:

A very interesting home with a raised deck for summer dinners:

This very old home appeared to no longer be lived in:

And this home was nestled back in the trees in a most attractive way:

A beautiful old farm home surrounded by trees:

When I came to the intersection of County Route 49, I called an end to my driving tour - but not until I snapped a picture of the old, abandoned Shatraw's General Store:

Scenic Buckton Road - Part 1

I'd driven down East Part Road (see previous two posts) to where it intersects with Buckton Road. I decided to turn onto Buckton Road and begin heading toward home, snapping photos as I drove. The Buckton Town Hall was deserted and not plowed. Buckton is a tiny settlement, not really a town, so I don't suppose they have much business to tend to:

And this lovely old farm house:

The Buckton Methodist Church:

I crossed over a branch of the St. Regis River but would never have known I did so if it weren't for the bridge. It appeared to me that ice jams had caused flooding - which then froze, leaving a vast field of snow and ice with the actual river far beneath it:

Another historic old farm house:

And lots of firewood for this exceptionally cold winter:

All snug and comfy, a haven in this winter landscape:

There was Adirondack siding on this home:

And a low, modern home beneath a giant maple tree:

This mobile home was landscaped and situated amongst the trees in an appealing manner:

I passed through woodlands with birch and aspen along the road, backed up by conifers and then more birch behind them. It was an odd but colorful mix:

A home with several chimneys and a ramp. I imagined a family gathering there for Thanksgiving dinner. But there was more to see on Buckton Road, so I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
