Boyd, Oregon-- the little school high on a bluff above the grist mill and giant wooden elevator...
Now a ghost town, this was a bustling place 120 years ago. Boyd was dis-incorporated in 1955. The wooden grain elevator is quite large and is visible above the trees. Steam trains and stage coaches stopped here. Now there is only the schoolhouse and the elevator.

Life moves on, things change but no always for the better sometimes. The last 2 properties nestled amoung the tree. A lovely image a y gone days.
What caused the town to close down. Do you know?
I love this place, and love how you captured it.. and me. ♥
I'm yearning to visit
This is an excellent series of photos showing the past.
Beautiful nature, shame it had a bridge.
Hard to imagine this yesteryear.
Hello Bill,
What a great area.
Amazing these shots of a fantastic landscape.
Greetings, Marco
Wondering how far apart these schools are...wondering if you had to travel far to photograph all of these.
