Dyke Road was indeed rural. This house, barn and garage sat so very far off the road that I had to use my zoom lens to photograph it.

There were fields filled with long, giant, plastic covered tubes of what must surely have been silage:
And fields covered with farm equipment:

There were golden woodlands:
And green hills, covered with tall Pines:
This farm pond had a wooden pier built out into it, perfect for children who liked to swim in the summertime:
We were just outside the Adirondack Park border and the sandy soil must have been similar, because this moss, birch and Reindeer Lichen covered hillside sure reminded me of the Adirondacks:
What appeared to be an elegant estate sat up on a hill and behind the trees:
This farm house and outbuilding sat so far off the road that I wondered if it had another entrance off another road somewhere. Again, I used my zoom lens to get a picture:

I saw no houses near it. My driving tour had come to an end, it was past lunchtime and I was hungry. So I put my camera away and aimed for home:
