I never understood why allow a shed or barn to become so decrepit and not do something to save it. Wonderful picture!
Artist Reply: THANKS FOR COMMENTING STANLEY. THIS ONE WAS ON THE PROPERTY WHEN MY SON BOUGHT HIS HOME. IT HAD BEEN THERE FOR PROBABLY OVER 100 YRS AND WAS TOTALLY IN SAD SHAPE THEN. SO IT TRULY JUST HAD TO COME DONE NOW AFTER ANOTHER 30 YEARS.
Alabama has a lot of abodes like this, Joanie. Dad would joke they were abandoned slave houses and as a kid, I would believe him. So much history now likely permanently gone. How many families were were raised in such places? My thoughts when I see such structures. :)
