Gallop Road, Town Of Bangor NY - Part 2

I was taking a driving tour on scenic, rural Gallop Road (see also Part 1, posted yesterday). This small, old barn appeared to still be useful for storage:

Also for storage, I assumed, and possibly attached to a sugar house:

Very interesting farm which sat so far off the road that I had to use my zoom lens to photograph it. The shed on a trailer was a mystery to me. I don't know what it may have been used for:

A tiny, old shed which clearly was still very useful to its owners:

A cluster of small barns, all in excellent shape:

A modern dairy farm:

Another farm with the usual low rise dairy barn:

This old home appeared to be abandoned, which caused me to want to get a photo of it before it is gone altogether:

A modern, efficient farm with silo, grain bin and corn kernel storage bin:

At the end of the road, I took one last photo of this older structure, now a garage and woodshed:

Franklin County Route 16 - Part 1

I had previously noticed Franklin County Route 16 and made a mental note to take a driving tour there some day. Well, the day arrived and I began with this classic old brick house. Notice the traditional plank door:

A magnificent dairy farm. I noticed the clothes on the line and decided it was an Amish farm, but then noticed the bright colors of the clothes and the electric lights in the barn. So apparently it wasn't Amish:

A view of the same farm, but from the other side:

An old barn which had been nicely modernized. The backhoe was actively digging up the field in preparation for spring, most likely pulling out rocks and digging trenches for drainage pipe:

Another very large and prosperous looking farm, with barns, sheds, silos, grain bins and corn kernel storage bin:

This farm house looked friendly and inviting:

I think it would be fair to assume this guy likes to race cars:

Another large and modern dairy farm:

A farm house with clothes hanging on the porch, and a barn out back. But there was more to see on County Route 16, and I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
