Revisiting favorite spots #29: Here's one last look at the Goodnoe Station, from a different viewpoint, and on a different day. It's easy to think of crumbling buildings and ghost towns on the dry side of the Cascade Mountains. Why? The need for little towns within horse and wagon distances has disappeared, and many family farms have been replaced by corporate farming. But there's beauty in the land and the remaining pioneer structures. And there are still many people who love living there.

My poet friend says these old buildings sit down slowly like an elderly women with a full skirt.

Se harán edificaciones nuevas y se irán reemplazando las que están a punto de caer. Es muy buena la zona.
Un abrazo

Preciosa. Parece una fotografia sacada de una película de Alfred Hitchcock, Bill.

Una manera de vivir y trabajar que queda muy lejana en el tiempo, pero la belleza de eses edificios es indudablemente muy grande.

I really like the perspective. Something both beautiful and sad about this old house.
