“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.” ~ Edith Sitwell

The homestead
I really do not know what is going on with Flickr, this is the third time of posting this image so it might pop up again for which I apologize, .
Another image from my Northumberland trip last May, I think I have a couple more images to show from Northumberland that I have not yet shown. Then I have some windy rough sea shots of Kite surfers and last evening when after studying the weather forecast I headed to the beach for what turned out to be a most amazing cloud sunset over the sea .
With this image I have little idea as to where we were, we just headed inland following our nose from Bamburgh Castle, my only thought is it could be near a small place called Wooler.
We had found a small car park where I shot a panorama looking towards the Cheviot hills, as we pulled out of the car park I spotted this area over a stone wall so I just had to stop and shoot off a few images.
The old place looks derelict with bits of rubbish and fencing about and a stream running though it and a strange looking boulder taking up space in my foreground .
Another view of the beautifully restored Pah Homestead - fortunately only 10 minutes away as the crow flies.
It was a ton of fun to do more building in the Isles of Aura for Brickworld, especially as part of a large group display with InnovaLUG.
This was one of the smaller contributions Isaac and I put together, but I’m really happy with how the homestead turned out.
Inspiration for the chicken coop came from Brother Steven.
Graham edited this picture for me, thanks Graham!

This old wagon is part of the presentation of an old homestead home in the South Dakota Badlands. The family Brown moved here from Iowa in 1909, hoping to find a new place to live. This inhospitable area of South Dakota was one of the last to be homesteaded as it was initially set aside as Indian reservation.

Located below Lynx, near Tulip, Ohio. Sitting on the Appalachian Plateau in rural Adams County. Noticed this on my way to Rock Run Nature Preserve.
A few miles up Hell's Canyon is the remains of the community of Homestead. The town was started on the site of one of the original homesteads in the canyon by a copper mining company. When the company went bankrupt in the 1920's the town went bust too. The school apparently had some subsequent use as a barn but now appears totally abandoned.
Built in traditional Cape Dutch style, this homestead on the outskirts of Prince Albert is in fact a more recent construction, an AirBnB. signs of the times, I guess.
Often simply referred to as the "second" Mormon barn, this site in Grand Teton National Park gives a good visual clue into the harsh life that homesteaders faced in the long Wyoming winter. Few were attracted to the area, and even fewer stuck it out. By 1890, six years after the area was opened to claims, there were fewer than 100 people living in the valley. No wonder so many of them turned to "dude" ranching. Easterners generally only came in the summer, they paid big, and they didn't need to be kept going with hay in the lengthy winter.

This is a really a nice place to visit. If you go, you really need to get there early enough to try (at least) one of their homemade fruit pies. They often sell out before closing time.
An abandoned homestead in winter Alberta. I'm not sure why the windmill is on the roof of this building, but it sure was intriguing to see.
I've written a short blog post about my trip, if you'd like to read it.
If you'd like, take a look at my other Prairies images, as well as my ongoing project to photograph old, abandoned grain elevators. As well, if you're feeling particularly interested, you can read an essay I wrote for Nathan Wirth's Slices of Silence blog on my feelings of connection to the places I shoot, especially the Prairies.
Since I had been a bit absent on Flickr, I actually have a TON of new work from the prairie taken over the last year. I'll be mixing in a lot of this with the mountain landscapes.

I stopped at this old homestead last night to get a shot of it just after sunset. As I got close to the house after walking through the tall grass thousands of swarmed me, and were as thick as I have ever encountered. I took a few quick shots and retreated very quickly to my vehicle. I'm still itchy.
Now wyed and heading west on the main, Iowa Interstate QJ 6988 moves towards the Homestead engine shops where it will tie up for the night, bringing to a close a very successful weekend of excursions. For the last bit of their run today, the crew put on a nice smoke show despite having nothing to pull and almost nowhere to go.
This very large, carefully preserved barn was built on the Whaley homestead in 1885 and is now on the National Register of Historic Places. It stands, further protected, in what is now the Lee Metcalf National Wildlife Refuge near Stevensville, Montana
The BItterroot Mountain Range creates a dramatic backdrop.
