A relative got the title to it, and now a builder is tearing it down to build a new house.

I'm attempting to copy a style that AndyS used to use when he photographed derelict houses like this one.

So in a way, it's not a true story. Just my interpretation of what this property has become.

Fascinating Peggy! Poignant. There's a song by Kate Wolf called "Carolina Pines" which sings the song of this old house. George McGovern Sep 2024 #5

Thanks so much, my dear George! I just might look that up. nt CaliforniaPeggy Sep 2024 #6
