Party line
Here is another vignette inside the McIntosh/Lohr farmhouse. The party was every time you used the telephone. I expect that your neighbors all knew your business. This view makes the house look pretty much austere but it was really not so much. I think it remains more spartan so that folks have more room to move and examine the furnishings. The interior is not so large as it seems from Highway #66. No real frills though. I decided that the sky was terrible and it would soon get too hot so I'd grab some inside shots at McIntosh. Here is the original farm house from the kitchen. These were the items accumulated back in the day of practical accumulation.
I had taken shots inside with D70 but I always thought of bringing the D700 out on a future trek back to the MacIntosh farm venue. In keeping with the abandoned farm theme, I decided to drop it on this set. It's always fun to shoot an old abandoned farm but it's a bonus to find some of the old machinery remaining. There are libraries of photos hidden in the details.
Here we are at the MacIntosh Farm Preservation Center outside of Longmont, Colorado which lies across MacIntosh Lake behind me. Boulder County has collected many old agricultural related machines on the property that boasts two large barns. It's truly amazing that this is actual Boulder County OPEN space.
