St. Lawrence County Route 14 - Part 2

I was driving St. Lawrence County Route 14 and snapping pictures of the rural scenery. This lovely old barn certainly qualified as scenic:

Another North Country wrap-around porch:

This old farm looked historic and very busy - still actively farming:

Alas, this old barn was listing badly - and crammed full of stuff:

I didn't see any cows, but this looked like a dairy farm to me:

A home which looked almost colonial:

Farm home, barns and outbuildings which looked as if they might be living quarters, perhaps for the farm manager and employees?:

A spectacular old stone church, complete with bell tower and wrought iron fence:

A modern, prosperous looking farm:

Notice the big old maple trees here with sap buckets attached, as well as the sugar house with green roof:

A wonderful old barn with feed bin. I was almost to the gun store at this point, so I put away my camera and paid attention to finding my way:

St. Lawrence County Route 14 - Part 1

I was returning home from an appointment in Ogdensburg and, since I was in the area, decided to stop at the gun store. I turned onto County Route 14 and immediately realized that this was a lovely rural road on a gloriously sunny day and I should be taking pictures:

This was real farm country:

This prosperous looking farm had a number of barns out behind the house:

An older home which probably has a lot of history behind it:

The best part about this old barn was the two pink flamingos atop the barn door track. A sense of humor helps the world go 'round:

A wrap-around porch, an almost universal feature of country homes here, both old and new:

A historic looking farm house and barns:

A beautiful old barn in what looked to be pretty good shape:

Another house and barn:

A newly built barn and house, again with the wrap-around porch:

Twin silos plus multiple barns and outbuildings. But there was more to see on County Route 14, so I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
