Abandoned America ~ Road to Mora

On the curve...

Used up...

I took this photo just before I spotted the horses!

Isn't that truck amazing & in the perfect

proximity to the hut.

Horse home...

This is my favorite photo.

I love the light shining on the horses.

Abandoned America ~ New Mexico

Mill in valley at Pendaries.

 

Amongst the beautiful scenery of New Mexico

one finds many examples of abandonment.

Perhaps because it is New Mexico

much of these sights add to the charm

of this beautiful land.

The sky in this photo is glorious.

 Tess at Life at Willow Manor began a series of 

photographs entitled "Abandoned America".

In my travels across the country I come across many 

abandoned buildings, homes, and even towns.

I decided to follow Tess' lead in photographing

and sharing some of these sights.

Adobe building.

 These photographs are from the drive from Rociada to Mora, N.M.

Most of these need no explanation.

They are just abandoned structures that were 

sheds or homes or barns in a previous life.

One wonders what happened.

Did the people move on or die?

Did the structure outlive it's usefulness?

Travels are over...

Collapsing.

Remains of an adobe structure.
