Description
This old girl is actually here from BC ,situated along "Mara Lake" near Sicamous , about 55 miles west of Revelstoke ,my own town !
Photo taken yesterday on my way out of town ! I have driven this part of the road many of times before , and never notice her existence till a month ago ,but never got the chance to pay her a visit ,but this time i did !
The way she looks now , i don't think that she will be among us very long ! So i have photographed her frail structure from all angles ,while my wife was waiting patiently in the car ! I'll be posting other pictures of this rare beautie in the near future !
Too bad that we are so advance into the Fall season , i'm a bit too late for the colorful autumn in all her splender coats ! Maybe next year !
I hope that we have a date ! I hope that she'll survive the hard and long winter that is knocking at our doors ! It's so sad to see those old jewels disapearing one by one forever ,taken with them their well garded secrets !
I find them facinating ! Ah the stories and tales they could tell if only they could talk ! But for as long as i have my camera on hand ,rest assured they will be remembered ! I think that i have mention this before ,that i have some kind of weakness for old buildings ,as you have probably notice !
Thanks for looking and for your comments !
Take care everyone !

yes, i agree it is sad to see them go, but it's the way it is - we are lucky we can save the images though.

Yeah a lovely old place that must have kept a few safe from those long winter snows and ice.. The skills in making them is probably lost for ever as well.

I would love to see her again in the Spring, no matter her condition. What a wonderful capture! I love Revelstoke. It's such a gorgeous place! I live in Washington, and I always feel a sense of connection with your town because of the river.

ti-Paul. Cette bâtisse a été construite avec des matériaux de bonne qualité. Elle a passer des générations mais aujourd'hui il ne reste que quelque vestige pour nous imaginer son allure. Bravo pour le clic ;)

Elle a été faite en partie avec du bois rond..ce qui veut dire qu'elle a du millage:) Ce qui reste donne une architecture très intéressante a regarder. il reste que ça doit être quelque fois un abri pour des bêtes qui passent..alors tout n'est pas perdu ..Superbe trouvaille!

Je me représente un peu le Québec dans ce type d'environnement (j'imagine que toutes les maisons de ton beau pays ne sont pas du même tonneau. Bravo pur cette découverte.

This has gotta be an absolute work of art! I find this capture to be fascinating! Really thought-provoking image, leaving so much of to the imagination! I too, like you have a weakness for these type of "semi-wrecks"..... Such a "simple" image, and yet a river of stories to tell..... Excellent capture! Your focus and detail is superb!

I believe she will outlive the winter. These old ladies can be unbelievably long-lived! Beautiful capture! You're the one I look to when I feel the urge to watch some beautiful old barns. Never thought I'd actually find a provider for that urge. Big thanks to you! :)
