Well this canyon has been on me to visit list for years. I finally had the time and conditions to visit. There was a ranch at the bottom called Pothole Ranch and in 2024 a major landslide blocked the river. When in released a major flood came down washing the 1890's homestead down the river destroying a piece of history... Kris...

Since these two houses I am posting today are private residences, I'm afraid I can't give you much historical information. This one is on Franklin Street, a stones throw from the beach. Secluded behind that hedge and fence is a superb example of an early Georgian homestead, complete with verandah. These verandah's were very important ways of cooling houses in the warm summer weather.

The T.A. Moulton barn on a gorgeous fall morning along Mormon Row in Grand Teton National Park.
I know that I am guilty of this from time to time, taking a photo of something historical and moving on without really understanding its past or anything about the people who lived there.
I had previously visited this barn built by Thomas Alma Moulton and the other famous barn built by his brother John and did exactly that - snapped away and moved on. This year I wanted to better understand who it was that homesteaded here and why, and learn a little more about the life they led. I am so glad I did for now I have a better understanding of how harsh their lives were. Now this scene has a much deeper and more spiritual meaning to me.
If you are interested, here is a link to a short history of Mormon Row and its people:
Thanks for stopping by - your comments and views are so appreciated!

I am a true Gemini inasmuch as I like straight photography but still love painting them afterwards. The original is also only a few photos back from this one if you care to compare.
Done with an iPad app glaze and one other that I can't remember. iPad doesn't affix names that I would use to identify. Ya hearing me Apple?

Last print of this session, the developer was at the end.
A second bath with highly diluted ECO developer saved the lights and killed the color.
Isaiah 27:10 “For the fortified city is isolated, a homestead deserted and abandoned like the desert; There the calf will graze, and there it will lie down and feed on its branches.”
A people who do not love freedom and truth—their end is totalitarianism.
The last time this location was visited, four feet of snow challenged even moving a few inches into a position for composition. It's good to see that warm temperatures have finally arrived, but in short order, we'll be complaining about the heat.
Thank you for all the fav's, comments and your visitation.
A slice of history on Mormon Row: the Thomas Murphy Homestead, built in 1908, stands as a rugged reminder of early Western homesteading. Today it’s a beautifully preserved spot in Grand Teton National Park.
I often wonder about the story behind these old homesteads and why they wee abandoned.... creating a little artwork here with texture. Happy Sliders Sunday
A Chicago-bound Norfolk Southern hotshot kicks up some fresh powder as it curves past the old train station in Homestead, PA. On the NS Monongahela Line, the Pennsylvania Railroad station was built in 1906 on their Monongahela Division. On the National Register of Historic Places, the station still looks the part but is now only used by the Allegheny County District Attorney's Office.
Linda and I just got home from three days at Jackson, Wyoming and Grand Teton National Park. We were too late for good fall color but we had a great time anyway. These buildings were the Thomas Murphy homestead located on Mormon Row, now a historic district within the National Park. Murphy laid claim to the land in 1908 and took title in 1915. The background is part of the base of the Grand Teton mountain range.
Forgotten farm in the foothills area of south central Nebraska. Later,my Dad told my uncle was born here. My Dad grew up about a mile from here as well.

The woman who sleeps on the sidewalk here, her possessions neatly stacked around the lamp post, and a man who appeared to be in conversation. 6th Avenue, just south of Central Park.
Can’t count my blessings—I have too many.
