Decorated and Caved-in Outbuildings

Decorated Outbuilding

Besides Wide Tree, Windmill and Outhouse and Ye Old Wagon on the interesting property without a house in the Kansas countryside, there were two outbuildings.

With the above photo, notice the decorated outbuilding as it has security lights. I surely wonder why and find this very interesting. With the below photo, the caved-in outbuilding has old farm equipment and a truck stacked behind it and I assume this because I noticed while processing the photo. The old truck rises above the caved in roof as well as there is a tire on the roof. We didn’t wander behind the outbuilding and stayed mainly on the fringes of the property to shoot photos. Now I am curious as to what was behind there.

Ye Old Wagon

Besides Wide Tree, Windmill and Outhouse on the interesting property out in the Kansas countryside, there was an old wagon from yesteryear.

With this photo, I processed in an old color style with vignette. Besides this view and a stylized rendation of the old wagon, I also processed the photo in a creamy black & white with vignette:

Wide Tree, Windmill and Outhouse

Sometimes we don’t know what we will find out in the Kansas countryside. This property had some intriguing stuff but not a house. The outhouse has a toilet. The sign hanging by the top of the windmill reads: “Land of Ah’s”. Also, behind the windmill there is a cellar in the ground with a pipe sticking up. Indeed, Kansas is the “Land of Ah’s” with the unusual, the abandoned, and as well as the landscapes and skies beauty.

Wamego, KS Night Lights

I enter this intersection of Wamego, Kansas every day except for Sunday and then sometimes on Sunday.  This is the town where I work.  I’ve traveled 13 miles by the time I get to this traffic light or I’ve 13 miles to go if heading home.  It was 5:25Am when I took this shot, for I had to be at work at 5:30Am.  This is the town of OZ as you can see the OZ Winery sign on the building on the left.  There is a beauty shop called the Sizzors of OZ, there is the OZ Museum, and there is Toto’s Tacos.  There are several other OZ named businesses but I can’t think of them at the moment. Here is a link to the OZ Museum.

Chalk Road into the Storm

Chalk Road is a scenic and winding road through the prairies and hills in Wabaunsee County, Kansas. The photo view is facing west into an approaching storm, and on the left are grazing cattle while on the right is a wide-open pasture with horses.

This is sort of like one of those tests to see which piece does not fit. Could you just imagine what it would be like if you went back in time with this smart car into the 1950′s?
