pics at the farm
« on: February 17, 2014, 12:04:45 PM »
Here are some pics of the farm.

Here is an old car, with a bush, tree growing up through the engine


The farm house from a different view


A creek that runs thru the property. Frozen over at moment


Not sure of the year or make of the model, but I think it is kinda cool


More old trucks


This is another truck set back in the woods, with trees growing out of it


Here is a close up of that mint green truck


truck graveyard


A closeup of another truck...Cant wait to do some exploring!!


small shed


Another outbuilding


This is an old wagon. I will take a closer pic, when the snow is not so deep....


This is my fave thus far. Might have it framed


This is actually one of the barns, at the University of New Hampshire


Another outbuilding...The children have been told they cannot go in there without an adult supervision


and you all know who this is....


This is the front entrance, with my car(SilverHawk) parked out front.....

What are they planning to do with all those dead cars?

Could that be a Plymouth Gold Duster?  Maybe, about  a 1976 and it  might be a good donor car for some front and rear end parts.

As I mentioned to Sparky, you more than welcome to take a look around, would love to see you all(Scoobie et al). Any of you are will always be welcome to hang out.

I'm not sure any of those cars are worth saving.  On the other hand, scrap metal is selling for $250 a ton.
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

I thought the pics would be cool. When the snow has melted, a bit, I will go back out and take pics of the other cars. Not too mention the wagon, and the old tractors.

Yeah, they look great in the snow.  Once it melts is another story.

Looks very nice, Sea.  :)

The trucks look like an International and a Dodge.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

What a joint to live in as a teenager, all the things to explore.   Adults also, darn perhaps you will name the wood chucks and rabbits.

Never know what has been stored and forgotten in the old barns.  Grandparents had a barn a friend and I went into when we were kids, found some old trunks and a couple old cameras with film still inside.   Parents took the cameras to a photo shop to find out if the film could be salvaged after 20 years and a few could, one was of my 15 year old Uncle that died at 15 before I was born.     Only time I saw my grandfather cry.

You got a gold mine out there, in good condition or not I would buy those wagon wheels for $150.
