old houses

       

There's something about old houses that intrigue me.

      

I especially enjoy trying to see through the windows to see if I can get a feel for the people who once lived in them.

       

I am curious as to why these old houses are abandoned.  Was there a foreclosure on them?  Did the single dweller pass on without family heirs?

      

Were the children of these homes not willing to do the upkeep?  Or were they just too sad to tear down remembrances of their lives?

The next picture shows an old house I photographed in Archer, Florida on our ride back from Gainesville on Sunday.

      

      

Speak to me old house.

I love these and am intrigued by them, too.
