The Abandoned Houses In Palmyra

As we were driving along Rt. 15 towards Orange.......

...we came upon these old houses

which probably have a story or two to tell.

Situated in quite a serene and scenic place,

it was hard to imagine

that some day soon

these old buildings, which were surrounded by really old trees will have to give way to a four lane highway going right through the hearts of their history. These pictures are testament of a time gone by. Soon these old houses and their stories will be forgotten. Also forgotten will be all the wildlife that had to give way to progress yet again as man yet again saw the need to move in onto their habitats. Progress doesn't even stop in the most rural areas of the country. It's a pity...............
