Route 430 House & Silo

The old house

a quilt work of repairs,

only the silo

still mourns the barn.

 

This was a rundown farm that was recently taken over by a young Amish couple and their children. The year before, on our first traverse of the Chautauqua Lake Watershed, the young mother stood in the the open front door of the "new" home with a baby on her hip. It would have been the only portrait in the series, but the Amish don't like to be photographed. This view is along Route 430 north of Titus Road, in the town of Chautauqua.
